Havent been on YT for awhile, forgot to post these up.. Got married in October, our photographer shot a couple shots with the truck, came out really good.. My wifes parents bought the truck in 86 and owned it for awhile, and when my wife was born she was brought home from the hospital in it.. It was eventually given up to the grandparents, grandparents pretty much ran it to the ground, left it in a field to die, i got it back for free and have restored it and more.. So the truck means alot to both of us and it was amazing to have it be with her from birth to our marriage..
Revived this baby from the grave. The 3.0 threw a rod, and had cracked the block, I didn't know this til later. She was rusty from sitting outside for 4 years. After a year and a half of workin on her, 3.4 swap, a little bit of chaos, frame cleaning, basically new a lot of things, she finally got to see the light of day the other...er....day.

Wow! That looks great! Glad you finally got her running and driving.
Restored engine. This was stolen a week ago. I posted on the stolen forum. I am so bummed! If you see it can you let me know or call the police? I wanted to share the pics too. Loved this truck.

Here's the link for more info guys. I'd keep a look out, but I'm not in Cali. Good luck, look around if you can. Sometimes it can be closer than you think, especially if it just happened. BTW, DON'T be afraid to look around places, even if people look at you weird. It's better than wondering if you could've done something different and actually found it.

I would, but can't wait that long. For the bumper, I'm thinking the low profile from trail gear (I think?) as it hugs closer to the grille and doesn't stick out a foot. I saw one in person not long ago, and I liked it. But that's for when money allows.

The truck was found today! Some punk had a 4runner like mine (V6 though) and thought he had an opportunity to take parts for his. GRRRR
