Hey, I'm new here so let me just bring you guys up to date with my truck as of now.
i bought the truck for 42 hund in july of 2006. started completly stock and looked like this

first thing i did was the stereo ( i work on car audio and electronics for a job )
i added 2 new 5.25's in the rear powered by an amp. and then added a single 10 inch sub powered by 250 rms.

next i added a rear light bar that i found on the side of the road with a for free sign on it . a couple coats of black and she looked fine.

in the beginning of the summer of 2007, i decided for my physics project to calculate the center of gravity of my truck before and after a body lift was installed. the install took about 13 hours due so some serious rust and battery terminal problems but i was happy with the results.

while working at my churches yard sale, some guy dropped off a cb radio of his and before anyone could put it down on the table to sell, i yanked her and installed her in the toyota.

after the tires and rims, i started on a rear bumper. after 2 months and a lot of time, i got it done and on the truck about a month ago.

in the middle of the welding of the rear bumper, i added new rear shocks and new 2inch shackles in the rear.

the 85 pre is my buddie dylan's rig. hes also on this forum.... somewhere
as for future plans, i am currently working 2 jobs and throwing down some serious hours. i have about 300 more dollars until i can buy the bracket lift for the truck and then with in a few weeks after i get the lift in the mail, we will grab a few 30's and put her in at my buddies place.
ill keep this thread as dated as possible and hope you all like it .
