Pim Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 this is going to be a rebuild of a truck I made ages ago this truck will be more streetable plans are to give the exterior a freshen up with refitting the tray and fitting a set of wheels from a mini cooper for the interior I plan to give it a wrx dash, 1 wrx seat for the driver and 1 seat from a dual cab Hilux fro the passenger for the steering wheel I am tossing up whether to use the stock Hilux wheel or a wheel from a supra. comments and constructive criticism welcome
hjracing Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 Sounds like a nice project! I'll keep an eye on this one!
Wonderbread Kustomz Posted May 23, 2014 Posted May 23, 2014 That looks cool... I love these laid out toyotas but this is gonna be nice... Are you gonna close up the wheel wells and floor in the bed?
mrjroc89 Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Full roll cage and/or stretched tires with camber will give it a nice drift look for the interior and exterior. For the engine a turbo and an exposed intercooler.
DodgeAddict Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Brayden , I rode through a whole set of tires with a guy who drifted a Yota like that with a Nissan engine in it one Saturday night a while back I'm going to send him a link to your build I think he'll find it to be really cool like I do You've inspired me to do a Dodge D50 Drift truck when I start my next batch of builds
Pim Posted June 5, 2014 Author Posted June 5, 2014 got some more done to this unfortunately where I live the weather is terrible so paint won't happen with plenty of time I decided to convert it from a curbside with a ford engine so should be a beast when finished. with colour scheme I'm thinking about aluminium/silver. thanks for all the help you guys have being giving me I am an amateur compared to guys.
Pim Posted June 14, 2014 Author Posted June 14, 2014 This will no longer be a single cab it will now be a twin cab it will still have the same features as the single cab but will just be in the dual cabs' bodyshell
Pim Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 it's time to bring this project back while I won't be using the single cab anymore I am now hopefully building two trucks one is a drift 'missile while the other is a daily driver weekend drifter sort of truck eventually I ill be adding a v8 720 drifter as well
BTK Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Neat, always loved mini trucks. Project is starting to look good, I'd be interested in seeing the datsun 720 too.
GrumpyGrowly Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Nice trucks. I like your paint idea if your still thinking aluminum/silver. Always preferred the name Hilux over tacoma, I don't want a truck in a coma. : )
