[iNfErNaL]

Its the little skinny pedal 

That about put me on my side a couple times on that very spot.Figured it'd be ugly with my boys sleeping in the back seat.

cool pics man

Wanna go out and hit the hammers in December.  I'm going to be headed down that way and I'm brining the buggy with me.  I need someone to be my guide at the hammers.  PM if your interested or if you know a group that I might be able to meet up and wheel with.

What part of December? New Years weekend is usually a good time. Some of the Brawlers should be there.

Probably sometime between the 18th - 22nd.  Although I might be able to meet up sometime later on my way back home which would be a lot closer to New Years

[iNfErNaL]

Bad ass!! Thanx fellas   

[davidstaco]

is this Pepe  because if it is i have got some questions for ya because i ran across your article from ali mansour in the magazine about your taco  and i loved it and i have been doing everything i can to get a hold of u some how so i can ask u something .  now finally that one question is    is your tacoma a 1998 or a 2001 because it looks like a 2001 in the front but both u and ali say its a 1998 i have to know the truth  because i want to change my 1999 tacoma to a 2001 tacoma front end (bumper,grille,hood,etc.) and i have to know if everything will fit and line up properly

[iNfErNaL]

Yeah that's me man  .The truck is a 98 but was wrecked in the front so the front clip that is on it now is from a 2002.Feel free to ask me any questions man,I will PM you my cel number or you can always call me at work (951)658-7077 I answer the phone 90% of the time

I'm going to attempt to make a 96 front tacoma clip (Hood, Fenders, Grille, bumper) fit on my 87.

I grooved the tires on the Macho Taco today :

[iNfErNaL]

I didn't weigh it but I'm guessing I took out about 9 to 10 pounds .

[iNfErNaL]

Probably gonna do some more work to it tomorrow . I wasted my steering box on our last trip to the Hammers so my buddy Troy got me a new (to me) one .I might put that on tomorrow depending on what time I get out of bed . I gotta do a little bit of work to it , getting ready to take it out for Thanksgiving .

[Tool Pimp]
