Here's a pic of Bevin's tank after he masked it and painted it. Man that is one of the sexiest things I've ever seen. Totally awesome Hybrid Tacoma/Hilux gas tank!

As for the wiring, everything is done except for the fuel pump and the idiot gauges. Also, I will finish building the 1" Chassis lowering kit tomorrow (only need to make 3 more spacers) and we will install the remaining pieces and get the bed lifted so it can clear the taller Tacoma fuel pump.

Also, Bevin bought an Instrument Cluster from a SR5 2nd gen truck with a Tach, I believe it's from an '88 22R-E, but a couple of the wires are different? When I hook it up, the tach moves to 4k and stays there with the key in the "On" position. So clearly there are some minor discrepancies with a carburated non-tach dash and an efi tach dash that I will also have to get figured out.
