Nice work on the '85, Justin. You know, you are really close to Back to the Future Marty McFly truck there. All you need are some on black and chrome modular wheels, Goodyear Wranglers, KC Lights (or just covers) and Smittybuilt tube bumpers and then you can go pick up Jennifer.



Yours was also lookin' really good on the stock SR5 wheels.

A familiar site for alot of people who live around here. We're pretty well known for being the kids in brat trucks around town. Inspiring people in the area to buy toyota trucks. I've seen more and more pop up here and am always getting asked where one could find one. My own little way of saturating our area

When had my 87, when my first gear synchro was going out it didn't grind it just would pop out of gear, so maybe its the throw out bearing.

I like the Soft Top. Plasti Dip is good stuff, I have coated many rims and parts with good results.

Here's my '85 22RE...

Bought it a few days ago. Pretty much all bone stock. Mechanically it's in outstanding shape with no rust to speak of and only 20K on a rebuilt. It came with a real bad paint job, though. The original owner tried to paint it himself but used the wrong nozzle on the sprayer and it has a textured feel to it. First thing to be done is find a buyer for the ugly lumber rack and change out the rusty chrome stock wheels and skinny tires with something more suitable.

I don't usually play in mud, but since it has been raining here for a week strait i figured i would man up and do the nastiest hole in the area. I did this hole when i was younger with tons of different truck and was never able to actually make it my b!tch. Always got stuck, always hated being there. But not this time!!! I'z growin ups!!!
