87 Toyota pickup

Im down to help figure that out.

I'm lost on the back bags

Me too...HAHA

Headers came in today!

Just ordered the complete emissions block off kit. I'm trying to get the parts needed to get it running and just put them to the side. But the headers and block off kit were a must

Emissions block off kit came in today. I still gotta buy a carb rebuild kit or new carb, one wire alt bracket and alternator, new clutch fan, radiator, annnnnnnd a couple other misc things.... But I'm getting there

More update pics!!! You are the only one making updates WTH! Bunch of slackers lol

ill try an get some up, and no one likes workin on trucks in this fuckin heat

Ok... Pictures...
Hooker Header, nothin crazy

And the recent work on the frame me an dad did the other night

There we go!

So one o the other things that needs to be addressed here soon is gonna be my brake booster, and master cylinders and stuff like that. As far as i see it the easiest way for me to do this is to do a floor mounted clutch, brake, and gas pedal assembly. that way i can keep the fire wall nice and clean and everything will be inside the cab, hidden and tucked away on the inside of the firewall. My other options are, doing just a brake booster delete which will still putrude through the firewall into the engine bay, than id have to rig up a clutch master cylinder under the dash. Or i can do a firewall mounted swing pedal setup for the brake an clutch but than i run the risk of nothing fitting correctly since the tub is so gotdamn big. So in my mind, being mounted on the floor will make my life alot easier. Im thinkin of doing the "Mix Match" one withouth the roller pedal.... http://www.dansperformanceparts.com/buggy/tcbh/buggytcbh2.htm

Just trynna save some more to buy more shit for this thang

In case no one saw on instagram, I got the engine pulled out today, now we can actually get in there and shave everything that needs to be shaved and clean the whole engine bay up real nice. There's only about 3-4 "big" holes that need to be filled and a couple other small bolt holes that can get covered too. I'm also planning on pulling the cab as well pretty soon...

Chea

What was that talk about candy paint fire wall?

CANDY PAINTTT!!!???

Ed thinks i should candy paint the firewall lol but shouldnt i worry about the wheels wells first? only the cab is tubbed, if i paint the firewall now... it will just be ruined once the fender wells go in. Should i grab two steel trailor fenders from tractor supply and request a day off work?..... Ed chim in on thissssssss

Oh and another thing, i pulled the front control arms, and everything. Got in the engine bay with a wire brush and started getting all the gunk and shit outta there. I got the driver and passenger cab tubs completely sealed with seam sealer too. I noticed today, pulling all the suspension stuff out, that the bag is rubbing a bit where we notched the frame in the front. So i took the flap disk to it a lil bit tonight, imma do a lil more tommorow. and see if the bag still rubs. I might snatch the core support off too... i might wait... Do work.

Damn bro, you are killing it! I personally wouldn't candy paint an engine bay that will see dirt,rocks, mud etc. I would def. try to get some wheel wells in there!

Lol I was jk about the candy. That would hourrrrs of body work to make it worth it.

Lol it really would. Every single imperfection.... Lets not forget theres alot... Would show.

So what day do you want us to come back over

Not too sure, schools startin this Monday so ill be slowin down a bit. But once I get back in the grove of school, maybe I can request a day off an we can find something to do lol

This may sound kinda bad... but i wonder if this truck will ever be done... im sitting there in the garage today lookin at it... and the amount of work that still is needed to be done is just enourmous... it really is. A nigga is gettin a lil discouaged...

lol ur crazy , technically.. if it wouldN'T of become a full on build it coulda prolly been driving by now.

I say next build day , we get the cab off ( you could have that ish ready to come off ) . We yank that bish off . Finish weld the rear end parts , get that shit in some color.
