i might have one from a 90 4runner

hey im first on this page too, im on a roll

Twisted Minis · April 30, 2009, 10:43:31 PM

Let me know if you do? I'll buy it if it's gray? This one is missing some clips too, and the wiring job on the old head unit was done with those twist on things. They at least used the small automotive ones, but still... Guys hacked the door panels too. Luckily I put larger speakers in and was able to clean them up with my air saw, and make them mostly round.

Parting stuff out from the blue truck.

Have a dash, and several columns with keys also, steering wheels and adapters, just about anything that was on the truck aside from the cab and front sheet metal. Chassis is sold.

whats up your sleeve now Twisted Mini

Twisted Minis · May 05, 2009, 10:37:05 AM

I'm just trying to part it out and make some room and not go broke at the same time. I am not currently working on anything, so it sucks.

twistedtoy92 · May 05, 2009, 12:42:27 PM

oh bummer..... I wanna see you build a first gen 4x4........

Twisted Minis · May 05, 2009, 05:45:54 PM

I want someone to pay me to build a crazy crawler, desert fab style.

Why not build it yourself I would love to see your skill and ability applied to a crawler

Twisted Minis · May 05, 2009, 10:23:39 PM

I'd love to, I just can't afford another project right now. I have ~4 vehicles of my own at the moment.

LilChief87 · May 06, 2009, 01:12:13 AM

and we have not seen the other 3 why

Jordan7118 · May 06, 2009, 08:33:33 AM

We've seen two of them - the blue bagged first gen and the third gen. Both two wheel drive trucks, and the third gen is an extra cab

Twisted Minis · May 06, 2009, 09:12:55 AM

Okay I have the 91 extended cab, a 54 F100 that's scattered in pieces, a 67 Mustang convertible that's a POS, and an 82 S10 Blazer with one ton axles that will probably never see the road again.

So you DO have an offroader!!! Pics, please!!!

Hope work picks up for ya! You do great work!

Twisted Minis · May 06, 2009, 10:31:51 AM

I would consider it a mall crawler. I will try to find some pictures. It's been in storage since I was 17, after it got caught up in a house fire. It hasn't run since then.

Twisted Minis · May 06, 2009, 10:38:41 AM

I found one from after the fire. Notice the melted grill. The tires and half the harness where junk after this as well. No body lift on it either.

jimbo74 · May 06, 2009, 02:35:19 PM

i like the scout

GJToyotabug · May 06, 2009, 03:13:07 PM

a 54 F100? oh me wantie

HxCmudBogger · May 06, 2009, 03:55:52 PM

that orange scout is pritty B-A

Twisted Minis · May 06, 2009, 04:34:06 PM

I wish I had pictures of my uncles other Scout II. He built one a while back when he had his shop, with Chevy axles under it, a routy small block, full cage, race seats, Atlas II, etc. He used to have some pictures of it in the air at pismo, and on the rocks at the Rubicon with my grandfather in the passenger seat.

I had enough to build a stock one and a hot rodded one at one point. I had everything but two titles. So now I have all the sheetmetal to build one. That's my midlife crisis project. My dream truck really.

Twisted Minis · May 11, 2009, 08:14:41 PM

A little random for me, but I made and installed a custom wall mount for a flat screen TV. I anchored it with drywall screws. I can hang off of it, so it should last.

twistedtoy92 · May 11, 2009, 08:50:46 PM

that's pretty sweet!!

TIMS89CRAWLER · May 11, 2009, 08:51:35 PM

hell ya man thats nice!

GJToyotabug · May 11, 2009, 09:10:34 PM

hey Twisted Mini. do you have any parts for a 79 datsun 620? anything would be nice. pm me thanks

jimbo74 · May 11, 2009, 09:12:01 PM

did you make that for yourself or was it a customer?

Twisted Minis · May 12, 2009, 09:36:56 AM

The customer was my younger brother. He bought the TV, but they plastic wall mount they had was $200. It's full adjustable, so I can see the cost, but it looked a bit flimsy. And you can rotate and angle the TV on it's own base. So I just took some measurements and and made a fixed mount.

I do not have any 620 parts, but I have a friend with a 521 parts truck. If you need motor stuff, or an axle, some things are interchangeable. I think it has a clean bench in it too.
