Hey y'all new to this site just wanted to say whats up and introduce myself... I'm Bobby from Gloucester, VA and I drive a '85 Yota Pick-up [start AA group voice] HIIII BOBBY!!! [/Voice]... Any way here is my truck...

'85
Rebuilt 22R
35" Ground Hawgs
rattle can primer paint and Half @ss Bondo job...
5.29 Gears

 

Nice lookin truck. How do you like the Ground Hawgs? I thought about buying some a long time ago but didn't. Do they perform well?

 

Oh yeah, is the top pic after its painted or is one side grey and the rest blue?

 

After it was painted I could not stand all the different colors... Is is really a half @ss job I sanded and Bondoed the rust bubbles and painted it in about 2 hours in my drive way.... Didn't even wash it or pull off the pin strip!!! I'll do it right one of these days. For the time being I just wanted it all one color. As for the Ground Hawgs I guess they are Okay.. They rock in the Mud but they a Bias Ply so they beat you up pretty good on the road and they are heavy. I have a intake, Weber Carb, and Header on the truck but even with that and the 5.29's they don't turn over as fast as I would like them, I guess I also need to clarify that I'm a mudder... Out here we don't get much for rock, just deep nasty evil mud, although I have went to the west part of the state a few times and went trail ridding, nothing crazy I was in my '98 Z-71 but it was fun, I have yet to get this truck out there.

 

Ah. Yeah there isin't much around here in Charlotte either. I need to find some new stuff. All we have pretty much is mud.

 

cool truck, I always liked the saw blades wheels on the old 4x4's.

 

Thanks man... At first I didn't like them but they kinda fit the theme of the truck.
