I bought this truck on a clean title and then.... Freakin highschool parking lot!!!

http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc127/Outlawski/OLDPC626.jpg
so i fixed her up as good as i could for the time being and right after that, i the ice wasnt as deep as predicted... i busted up my valence and bumper pretty good so...http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc127/Outlawski/OLDPC634.jpg
so i built my first front bumper... which i hated....

after that i tried the front bumper thin again.... hated this one too....
so did everyone else! haha

then finally i came across some cash (actually i just saved up) and i decided to piece my truck back together the right way...

the tear down was pretty easy and actually kinda fun so it went good....

then the rebuild starts..

which suprisingly went pretty good too! turns out my moms bestfriends husband is and excellent body and paint guru!!

then with paint the only thing left to do i ordered up some adjustable coilovers....http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc127/Outlawski/OldVsNew.jpg
all pro offroad hooked me up with a great deal for those! I payed the advertised price but i call that a deal cause i love them!

went to play at the local hills and found that these things actually flex pretty well up front, despite what i thought...

and now this is how she sits as she waits for paint.... its gonna be a toyota Land cruiser orange... t308 to be exact... then ill rhino the bottom half... and the bed and undercoat the whole belly... then come the skids and everything else...... stay tuned....http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc127/Outlawski/ATT00001-2.jpg
