Well heres a couple pics Ill get some more as the frame goes back together and the motor and trany goes in.
This is how it looks after i got to play with a commerical sand blaster
some high build primer
most of the rear suspension
motor is all painted
the oil pan is almost to pretty to be on the bottom of a motor.
some of the front suspension
Some of you may have seen this frame before it was built by John AKA layinrockers (here and ssm) I got it from Garrick over at SSM and decided it was time to finish it.
Its a stock floor frame with kustom works control arms front and rear all toyota 5lug, it has a Ford IRS, it will have an auto trany and a rebuilt 2.2 with a weber. with AC, Dual chrome 480s slam bags not sure on the valves yet. some nice 18s with a decent tire, I plan on driving this one. if all goes well it will be a rolling chassis by next weekend with body going on and then getting shaved soon after that.

Thanks guys but thats all there really is for right now, it sucks working at a body shop because when its minitruck building time its also my busy time at work when i have to work 5-7 days and 8-12 (or more) hours a day, and am usaly to tired to work on it or just so sick of seeing cars i dont want to even walk in my garage. But it does feel like im getting some where with it finaly.

Hey Jason, are you friends with Paul from IV? I think he had a hand at building that frame too. Paint looks killer man, cant wait to see it done!

Yeah I know 3 pound Paul, lol And it wouldnt surpise me if he didnt help with some of the final stuff, I know most of the major work was done in TN and then it was shipped to Boise.Theres not a whole lot of minitruckers around here, I know most of the people in Boise and the ones I done know seem to know me. I live about 40 miles away from Boise.
