    Hey there,

    I have always been a Toyota guy and kinda just picked one of these guys up.

    I HATED the camper so I ended up removing it....however there was no backglass....

    Long story short made a template and had a backglass made

    I had the valve cover gasket , wires, plugs and oil change done.

    So that's how she sits..I plan on doing the front caliper upgrade, which I still need to figure out. Also if I don't end up selling it, its getting a 2jz.

    Thanks fellas!

    I am getting it painted before winter hits. I'm having trouble on picking a color. It was originally blue believe or not.

    I thought I put insurance on the vehicle while having plates on it. DMV found no insurance on it while it was sitting. I just didn't respond in time. I'm in VA.... Manassas Area
