Looks slick... Can I get some more pictures of the interior? Like the console and seat height, the dash and all. How tall are you and how comfortable overall are you in it? Also, what do you mean by "when i got it and the cool combo but horrible application."

this one is how it sits today, the rear kit is on its way from trail gear, then im going to slap some 36x13.50 iroks on it and lock and drop 5.29's in the rear, i already did the 5.29's up front since i need a new shaft it wouldnt be an issue if i had to drive it anyways. the flex pics were to make sure everything with the steering would clear. it was close but has plenty of clearance on the high steer arms and pitman arm.





the last one was when i first bought the truck, i built a new engine and have been working on it bit by bit since july. i bought the truck for 250 bux with a blown engine, i already had alot of parts laying around from my other 2wd project. once this one is done im going to sas my 94 2wd.

Hello fellas .. i'm the guy at toyotafiberglass ..

floor pans are in the works , but comming slow ... quality is everything , so now I know whay they havent been brought to market before this .

we currently working on having them stamped , and then the cab mounts attached , but are proving to be much more expencive the originally thought . Now knowing this , we're NOT sure , were even going to do this or not ???? Right now , I would say ... fix yours ...

as for the beds ... dont waste your money trying to fix the old one ... really ... you WONT stop the rust .

we offer fiberglass sides for runners and pickups , but I personally recommend the beds (I own one).. they are quite beautyfull , and VERY strong and durable .. I was just reciently rearended .


and it still works .

Thanks, ill get some pics up later, the console was 2 dollars at the swap meet, its a bestop, im gonna have a key made for it.(didnt come with one)The interior also has tacoma seats and a dash cover, it has carpet for now till i finish the rust repair and get the bedliner material. it has holes from speakers, that im gonna cover with a patch or some more speakers. ill get pics for you, im about 6'2" and im comfortable, i just realized last night how comfortable it was. its pretty quiet. the paint combo the previous owner applied was sweet but sucked at prepping, it had gloss to it but chipped and peeled really easily.

that would be cool as hell, we get those days where it rains one minute and then gets sunny the next down here, i really like the 1/2 doors alot. to order a bed from you guys for my 84 and a tail gate how long does it take to get it down here to fl? and about how much would it cost total? im considering just the bed sides if i can find a good replacement floor for my bed but i think a full bed, fenders and a tailgate is something im strongly considering arround tax time. i have a business address i could get it shipped to also.

Is the wait for floorpans going to be short or should I just weld the holes shut?

i carry a smaller tool bag, a tire iron, a 2 gallon thingy of water, a jacket, and have the chairs leaned back against the back of the truck. i also have ลลลล under the seat like winshield wipers, maps, and my big ass center console that holds everything ive wanted.
