toyota hilux!!!!!! check it out!
I have been working on this for about a week now! I cut open the doors and hood, shaved the body lines, redid the door handles, gas door, shaved tails, tail gate, front corner lights, front bumper, pinch weld under the cab and molded roll pan. Body dropped the bed 3 inches. Built a cowl hood. A supra 2JZ,turboed, wired and plumbed with the intercooler and all. Oh, and cant forget the matching rear end! Let me know what you think!

Re: toyota hilux!!!!!! check it out!
I hate it. Ugly. Terrible work. I hate you, too.

Just kidding. Hot as always. So what's with you getting down with engine detail all of a sudden? I like it - totally rockin' your models out. Can't wait to see you do this thing - here's to hoping it doesn't get shelved like all other 176 models you're working on right now!
