    hey there to everyone,happy new year, may your year be filled with new trucks and lots of mods.i have just found myself a 77 hilux drove it home the other day,looks like will need some engine work, low compression on 3 and 4.has a bit of rust here and there but has good base,will be keeping it fairly standard lowered 1-2" and rims,panel and paint and hopefully replace deck with well side:headbang: so a wee bit boring,but have caught the bug for mini trucks so i am looking for another oldie to mod more intensly some of my other projects have been more interesting,although their ride heights don't fit with this site the engines would , they are built for 4wd, I have one with an injected 22r with cams and extractors then my latest project nearly finished running a supercharged 1uzfe 420hp. can see on you tube. search (supercharged 1uzfe wilderbeeste).

    The lisc. plate frame is from a 4runner, but the skin I ordered which is the corvette style roll pan incorporated.
    Hope you overcome your posting problems.
