the 81 courier started as my $500 daily driver work truck that my buddy wrecked and its not stockfloored on 20's with a merkur turbo engine and 20's.i got the tacoma stock and eventually it was bagged on 18's, after about 40,000 miles i got board and it transformed into a stockfloored, short bed with IRS on 22's.
iv'e had the courier for 3 years and the taco for 8, both were stock when i got them. i always jump back and fourth with projects but make me finish one and paint it for me!

Just added some new photos. I'm not driving it in the photos.-------------------Hello I'm just putting my truck up for the hell of it. I have nothing to loose anymore. Here is my story. I'm an active duty U.S.NAVY engineer. Currently diagnosed with clear cell Sarcoma and undergoing treatment. I've lost my Right thumb due to the Cancer and has Spread to my Lymph nodes and Left Shoulder. I have served for 9 years 4months Active Duty and most likely will be medically retired Due having cancer. In boot camp Sept 19th 2001. Also was IA duty in 2003-2004 in Iraq. First Stationed in Florida after my 9month school in Great Mistakes IL. I got into mini-truckin about 6 years ago in Jacksonville FL when a friend of mine on my ship showed me photos of his lowered S10. I started looking around and hanging with some guys in a car/truck club In Jacksonville Fl. Mainly VW minis. I Recently went on deployment with a ship needing my Help in Hawaii. I was working on an engine when I slipped and fell 20 ft and shattered my L ankle. I was using crutches while in a cast. A lump formed on my right thumb. after months of Test they removed the Lump and found that it was Cancer and they had to remove my thumb and some lymph nodes to save my LIFE. But thats not why i am asking for you to Do my Truck. I'm asking because I no longer can. I don't know what to do anymore and Don't have the strength most days to get out of Bed. It wasn't until about a year ago I bought my First truck which is a 02 (already Bagged F150) XLT and Then after my diagnosis a Bagged 1997 Astro VAN which I traded a guy in Freaks of Nature (who needed a Family vehicle) for a awesome 2000 GMC Sonoma Seen in the photos Below. I have done a Few things to it Myself. Was Nitrogen. Now on 2-480 Viair Compressors 5-Gal air tank. But it could use some TLC. New PAINT. INTERIOR. BODY DROPPED, Valves, Airline, Front end cut out and tubbed. Has 31xxx Miles on a 2.2L. I have been working on it with the Help of good friends and club members. I'm about to undergo treatment and Not going to have much time for my Truck or strength it is a Daily Driver but I do have another car. I will Drive this Truck Where ever needed. I will never be Deployed again. I have lost my right thumb (dominant hand) I'm having a lot of trouble working on it let alone doing day to day things. I have No problem getting to Shows I'm not doing much for work anymore. Almost medically Retired and I have plenty of Members in my Club (SUNSET!) that will get it to shows. You're Company is more then welcome to Come get the Truck anytime as well. But I'll be there and got time. I think it would be neat to have a Switch box installed that's easier for me to Use. I fully own this Truck and would like to say Thank you to Everyone for there Help on my truck over the Last Half Year. Also thank you to you guys as well for even considering doing any of this.----------------------2000 GMC Sonoma2.2L 4Cylinder31xxx MilesBaggedDUAL 480 ViAir Comp18" Chrome RimsShaved.DVD FLIPOUT.

--------------------------------------------Ok here is the last pic I can find that I havent posted and shows the current state of the truck. Only thing I have done since the RA show is change from the V6 truck radiator to a jeep cherokee radiator that mounts hidden within the core support. I also got together all the motor drive accsesories (did not have any to start with) and bought some misc. used parts like, fuel lines,fuel pump and fuel filter from a friends project drift car. Unfortunately I am not going to be able to make it out to arizona for the Bring the Noize show like I had planned, but since my current customer project is almost done, I can use the time off to get some work done to my truck. Im very excited to see the winner and hope whoever wins is a very worthy canidate. Jimmy good luck with choosing the winner I know there are a ton of great rides and stories to choose from.
