Gonna sell the rest , or we may use the motor for my Dad's first gen project . Not sure yet .

I'm "thinking" of doing the same. My 1st Gen is my DD as well as my trail rig. Updating the "power plant" would be awesome. Lemme know what you would like to sell the rest of the truck if you don't keep it for your dad, thanks

I dropped the trucks off at my buddie's shop last night , that's where the cab swap and paint will take place . He's the one who originally painted the Macho Taco . One of the best painters I know .








This is the kind of stuff he paints :

Awesome work!  I cant imagine the time and care that goes into a job like that.  All I can do is admire and wonder.

Glad to see the macho taco back on track, Peps, and of course, very happy to see you all made it through the roll over.  That's what counts! 

Be safe, man.
