clean 4runner   .that doesn't sound too bad.  just out of curiousity, what did you guys do for vin and registration when swapping a 4runner body on a truck?  will i need to swap my truck tags over?

Thanks, yeah tractor paint is where it's at!  The front end was pretty bad, I had to graft another front clip from the firewall forward.  Turned out good though.

I don't have a title for the body because it was from a salvage yard...  We thought we were going to have to do a specialty vehicle title like you would do with a custom scratch built street rod, but after talking it over with a few of my cop buddies I have deciced to just use the title for the vin stamped in the original pickup frame which I still have.  In this case, in my region that is my best, easiest option.  You should probably check with your local authorities on this though because what you can get away with depends alot on your region.
