    Whassup guys,
    My name is Joe live in the California bay area. Toyota trucks had been in my family since I was a little boy now that I am a big boy I got me one! my short term goal with my 1989 Toyota hi-lux 2WD is to drop it 3 inches get all black rims and with black paint with clear lights in the front (some day ill tint it) and black euro tail lights. Give me 2 months and i should be done with operation “murder yota”. My long term goal would be to work the 22R into a beast.

    Welcome to TM!!!

    Sounds like you got things pretty well planned! :waytogo:

    When you start the project, make sure you get lots of pics, and keep us in the loop on how things are progressing!

    Any questions you may have along the way, don't hesitate to ask, that's what this place is all about! :clapping:

    Sounds like a plan. Make sure you take lots of pictures and post them. I spent a lot of time and money on a dodge dakota in high school and did not take very many pictures and did not save them to anything. Now i have 2 pictures of the outside only when it was done and i really want some of the interior and as i did the work. Before and after would have been great. I suggest taking a lot of pictures so you can remember the truck if something ever happens to it.

    By the way i use to live in the bay area myself. Where are ya at in the bay area?

    Yeah there are a lot of vineyards behind the lab and Pleasanton is a pretty neat place i liked going there to find new places to eat dinner. I sure do miss the working at the lab.

    Haha you are not a fan of the euros Yota4life? I would trade ya my stocks but i dont think they are in good enough shape. maybe i will pull them out for ya and take a look.
