    I've been browsing this forum for quite some time now and have learned quite a bit. Best 5 speed transmission (W58), Best way or cheapest way to lower a 2wd, what the "proper" sized wheels and tires (In my opinion), etc, etc.

    I used to own an 88 xtra cab 4x4 a few years ago but one night it went missing from my driveway... **** thieves.

    Ever since then I've been wanting another Toyota pickup but something a little lower. On top of that I'm sick of carrying all of my Pinstriping and Sign Painting supply's on the roof of my 90 Honda accord. So I picked this up for a few bucks.

    Its a bit rough. Rust here and there, Paint falling off, Can't see the 22r under the pile of old oil and dirt, Interior is thrashed and it hit a baby deer at about 45 mph but after damn near a year of sitting in a guys drive way we started it right up with a pair of jumper cables and pumping the hell out of the gas.

    Oh and here's my ongoing project vehicle... 71 Datsun :)

    Hope to talk to you all in the future and hope to add some wisdom and knowledge to the forums.
