    The Old Wood Hauler: 1983 Toyota 4WD Build/Restoration

    I recently got a hold of my Uncle's 1983 Toyota 4wd, finally...He has owned it since 83', and I think when I was born 6 years later I fell in love with it. So this has been a life long build in progress. I actually Spider-webbed the front windshield with my head about 15 years ago and resulted...

    Derek's 'BST' Tundra Build

    To all those left out, overlooked, very capable 1st Generation Tundra owners, I present to you my ‘2000 Toyota Tundra build’ (Say that five times fast). I’ve always wanted one of these trucks from the first time my Dad pull up the drive way in a shiny green one in late 99’; probably the first...
