Tonka

So, I just had a crazy idea I'd figured I'd run it by you guys (Last time I had an idea this crazy w/o asking anyone's opinion I ended up with a 4" bracket lift)

I figured that since we've got some photoshoppers out there, could somebody do a photo chop of a 3rd gen pickup tailgate, but instead of it having the Toyota decal, have a TONKA decal? I just think that'd be cool. I know its weird but thats the kind of stuff i think of.

you mean like this?

This was the only picture of (what I think is a 3rd gen) tailgate I could find on google. This what your looking for? I matched the Tonka logo to the original Toyota sticker.

Wow I thought the Tonka thing died back in the 90's. Might as well get a matching visor for the front window and a few marker lights across the top.

He's right, every other 4x4 no matter what brand was running "Tonka" on the back of their truck in the '80's & early '90's in the Northeast.
I had hoped to never see that again!
