I picked this truck up in March, crazy trying to get parts these days but hopefully this COVID crap is behind us...

 

Looks clean!
I have a feeling its gonna be a while before supply catches up with demand. At least we can buy toilet paper though

 

I never got the toilet paper thing, if it got that bad, is toilet paper really your biggest concern... I think a moist rag to wipe your a$$ would do the trick, then just wash the damn thing, I would think having enough C-rations before TP... lol

 

I first ate C-rats in boot camp. I actually LIKED most of them. Not ham-n-mutherfu^%&*s, but the rest were GOOD. I especially liked the pound cakes, peanut butter and jelly, and those crackers that can suck up 3 gallons of water. Not to mention the coffee and hot-cocoa powder. Used to be great trading items. "I'll trade you a cocoa powder and 2 coffees, for a can of baked-beans and weenies, and a pound cake..."
They even included chewing gum and cigarettes, but they pulled that stuff out for us recruits. Cruelty, I tell ya, cruelty. They even included TP. A lot of packed down small. Nice in the field.
Darn hard to find them any more. Now it's all MRE's, none of which are anywhere near as tasty as the C-rats.

Just my opinions, though. Nice thing is, if you CAN find them, they last forever. Just don't get the boxes wet. Rusts through the cans. Stash them in a big ammo can. Keeps them nice-n-dry.

Have fun!

Somewhere in the swamps of Jersey... first time off-road since the lift and tires!

There you go! NOW it look properly dirty. The way a Toyota 4WD WANTS to look
Happy truck. Who can ask for more, other than a happy wife in the passenger seat!

Seriously, though, good looking truck in it's natural environment.
Have fun!

Thanks Pat! Well, you got that right, she's light and thin, screams when she gets reved up, she loves playing hard and getting dirty... and the harder you push her, the better she performs... She's the 22RE!

 

Doing the old school thing... Roll bar and restoring some vintage Hurricanes for the Swamp Donkey!






Now I have to polish them....

 

 

The new rims look great. TOO great. They, and the tires, not to mention all the goodies under the cab, need to get totally and thoroughly muddied up. THEN take the picture. I can almost hear it crying out for a good dirting (is that a word??) to make it happy

Seriously, though, it is a good looking truck!
