I recently sold my 05 Sunfire... Loved that car but I had to pay some bills and I down graded. I picked up a 93 toyota. I used to have one a few years back and I loved it. So anyhow...I love minitrucks and all that good stuff and was wondering if there are any others on here? I already have mine lowered and doorhandles shaved and plenty more to come. I'll post up some pics if anyone is interested...It's not much now but it will get there.
I've always wanted an s10 or taco or something like that as a project, but I don't really have the time or money for it. Here's a pic of my bro's truck I get to work on though. 3/4 drop, intake, dynomax muffler, led tails, ss mirrors, and we're in the process of redoing the interior; daily driver.
Since we're on the topic, here's an LS2 Canyon from this weekends show; body dropped, completely stock interior. This thing is sick! I might have a few better pics later, but I forgot to take my damn real camera, lol.

same as prowler for the last year or 2 i've been dreamin of fling low in a s-dime or maybe even a newer/bigger truck like a Lighting or Canyon. Had a pure white Lightning pass me couple months ago on the highway, my jaw just dropped, awsome just pure awsome
These are some rims i think would look good on it... Come to think of it I might see if someone in image manipulation could slam these bad boys on there for me...lol
I'm a mini trucker at heart. Dont actually own one myself but live by the philosophies. I'll skip on the bolt ons and cut and fabricate instead.
Mini truckers just know how to put together some awesome rides.

Now with northstar V8, IRS, 20's n 22's

i got a 83 s10, still working on a full frame off resto. has a 5/6 drop, 2.2 ecotec swap. im thinking now about air ride and body drop while i still have it all apart.
C-10's make some bada$$ trucks. Ive always been a GM guy since birth... But I have a love for any Toyota pickup up untill they made them bigger.As soon as they made 'em bigger i was over it. Just my .02 Even after I sold my fire i couldnt stop jumping on here... I love the JBO
I think so too. I'll post up some more pics once i get a little more done to it.
I had a bagged and body dropped s10 before the cavalier that I completely re did from the previous owners @!#$ ups...Now bagging the new trailblazer is in the works

We know we know.. lmfao... we all love it too.
Damn Jason you must not live around here. It is impossible to find those old 'Yotas with no rust like that... i would love to have one of that quality. Really.
I plan on getting an s10 or dakota sport with my next job and working on it.
Yea I live in sunny southern California so we dont have to worry about rust... Its actually in a little rougher shape than you can tell in the pics, but im pretty decent at bodywork... I would love to stock floor body drop this truck but its not realistic for my budget or time since it is my dd. I wanna see some pics of the trailblazer you speak of !

x2. idk what im doin on my 6th j... =/
Pics would be a little disappointing as of right now. I'm still in the planning stages to get everything in order as much as I can before I jump into it. I've got a ton of friends who are going to help but bagging a 4x4 is gonna be a little different.
My first turbocharged vehicle was a 90 KA-T nissan hardbody. Lets just say I cought a few mustang guys off guard with the truck.
i had an 86 short bed standard cab s-10 with a 350 tpi and a 700r4. also dropped 4 in. i miss it every time i see one
I love the square bodied s-10s. One of my favs for sure. Anyone on here bagged a truck themselves? I want to do mine myself. I have access to all the welding equiptment at work. The plan is a regular 4-link with the bag's on the bars so she rides like a caddy. Any insight would be helpfull. The fabricator at my shop used to hand build sandrails and whatnot in a prior job' he's gonna be helping me along but I want to do most the work myself.
just bought myself a s10 to replace my totalled cavy!
funny thing is
my cavy was a 2000, so is the truck.
i got my cavy with 34,XXX miles on it, same as this truck.
my cavy is sanddrift metallic, as is the truck.
cavy has a 2.2l OHV motor, same as my truck.
cant wait to get started on this truck!
have bog plans for it, because i found it with such low miles
and condition is amazing! was garage kept since new, rust proofed,
all the good stuff. its like a brand new truck! but i wanna bag this, do my sound system.
roll pan, tails, headlights, mirrors, all that fun stuff.
good luck with the toyo build!
i think you have to pull off the TO TA off the back, so you can rock the YO.and it will be in the center already!
you wont have to move the YO at all! and it will be just like the truck from Toy Story!!!!! lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i had a 98 sonoma ext cab zq8. worst vehicle i ever owned.
I HAVE 99 2200 AUTO EXT CAB s10.since new.a great truck just ready to turbo,have almost all of stuff and alot more info is distributed on this forum for forced induction glad i joined.
i too am a minitrucker at heart. thats all i used to care about is me and my buddies tearin up some asphalt. i am one of the guys that used to laugh at import guys. but then i sold my blazer and bought a cavy. dont ask y i did it cuz i dont know but i love my little cavy.
