In the mean time

About 8 months ago a bought the love of my life.. A 4x4 84 Toyota pickup!! Regular cab long bed with a little rust and some funky noises but overall a good solid truck.
My plan is to restore it as much as possible while improving drivability and off road ability.
Looking for a happy medium

First thing to do was paint the drivers side and add some mirrors.

Other things sitting at the house waiting to be installed are TG rear bumper, AP sliders, MC transmission, OME medium spring lift 2.5", pro comp wheels with 3.5" back spacing.

Also important to note: I am now completely broke.
