96 Ext Cab build up "runaround"
Picked up a 96 Tacoma ext cab 3.4 a few years back, blowed head gasket, jumped time, and a rusty patched frame, 2.5" RC lift, with good clear title.. Nothing crazy in the works, just like to do builds / somewhat restore with pics/discussion along the way.. Several minds are better than one right? Lol.. Building the truck back on intentions of selling in a year or so due to having other projects but plans are.. Frame repair , tube/flat bed, storage boxes, for tools (to work off off), tube sliders/steps, front bumper,replace engine, tires/wheels (15-16") atleast a 33", maybe narrow to help mpg's.. fix a few dents/dings, prob desert tan paint.. who knows what else might find, just have to see what happens..

The truck has some wore out 31.50's and some 15x10's, I think I'm gna try to get some 8" wide wheels for fender clearance , and not so wide.. I even have stockers lying around to keep the cost down.. might see if I can face these.. The truck also had a camo wrap (peeling all to pieces) I had to remove with a pressure washer, several hours of fun..

Someone patching broken frame
Other side broke from getting pulled around shop grounds a few times..
Basically worse dent/damage on whole truck.. not to worried.. not a body man but can prob knock alot back out from inside..
Have another truck I might steal a fender from as well..

Interior is in fairly good shape, most all the interior plastic prices , dash , clean seats (no holes/tears) etc.. taking the carpet out regardless to clean/pressure wash.. Was thinking of removing it and rhino lining (can stuff) or roll in? But also thought of adding some noise damping stuff and keeping the carpet due to interstate driving/parts running alot, more than off road stuff..
Prob gna add new speakers to the back factory spots, think I have some laying around shop..
Got most all interior (what was needed out) cleaned (molded) also removed a few panels on pass side to knock what I could of the dents back out..
