I was reading over my new member post he other day. Btw thanks for the warm welcome!! When i saw a post making reference to me never posting anything but stuff i have for sale. So in the spirit of trying to be a part i decided to post up some pics of the latest truck we are working on in the shop!! Some of you may recongnize it. I got it from toyoguy a while back. I traded him the cj5 that i had competly lost interest in,for it. This is my second 1st gen toyota and i love them.

After looking at the truck for a while i decide the it was way to long. The long wheel base toyota are just to super extra long wheel base for my taste. Bobbing the back was the only way to go!!

Some mo pics

I highly recommend doing this with a jig saw not a sawzall. The jig saw is much smoother. Plasma cutter would be great to.

CUTTINGS DONE TRYING TO GET IT BACK TOGETHER IS THE FUN PART

Productivity would be about twice what it usually is if our pants did not have front pocket usually my helpers hands get stuck there and wont come out!!!!

You know a project once you get started working you can't stop. So i hade a 12k winch laying around the shop i was not using so we decided to build a front bumper to put the winch in.

Heres some pics of the back and front bumper

Good looking project...work looks great.

cool build!!..............keep the pics comin

Waaaaayyyy cool build. I love the old Yotas.
Thank God you didn't have to clean out the bed during the bob.
