Got the tilt bed finished up. Use Energy Suspension bump stops as adjusters, so it works like a hood does. And use a universal bear claw latch from FBI. And I used a hood pull from an 80s fullsize Bronco, because the part you pull on looks cool and will fit well under the seat. They hinge at the back with a .75" aluminum pillow block with a brass bushing inside. Nice and smooth.

Dude, i dont know if you would be interested. But i just picked up a 1981 Toyota truck with a walk-thru and a SBF 302 in it. this crazy thing has molded fender flares and everything..built straight from the 80's I wanted to get $1K out of it... im about to put it on craigslist...

Oooh, I think I know what you are talking about. Are there dips in the bed side, or is it flat all the way up to the camper shell? I think they called them Trailblazers or something back int he day. It was supposed to be like a 4Runner type deal. Easiest way to tell is if the bed is fiberglass. There used to be a company that built them like that for Toyota. Is it 4WD? And SBF = Small Block Ford?

naw dude, it is actually a cut out walkthrough minitruck style with a funky early 80's canopy...i was thinkin of cuttin the roof off and making it a roadster and doin a lil drifitng...LOL but i would like to sell it... If i took the shell off it would look like your truck, with the back wall of the cab cut out..
