That looks great man. Can't wait to see more pics

That is very cool!

Cheers Guys

Quick post before work? Looking mean btw!

Haha just a quickie

This is a really cool truck! I like the most recent incarnation, especially with the new tails... I like the direction you're headed in. I really dig the wooden bed you made, and the laser etching was really cool!

Thanks man! All the stuff I've done to the car is pretty pissy compared to what others and especially some of the proper minitruckers are doing. But it keeps me happy ... for now.

So my old flatmate is a computer wizz and really into electronics, and he decided he wanted to build this for my truck as he's really got into LED Lighting. He put alot of effort into and I'm not complaining


Tray Off


All that suspension travel ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------^ :P


Cable tie city


'Kill switches' with fader knob below


Final product. Its pretty cool and the photo doesn't do it justice. Accents the wooden tray thing nicely.

Now to throw a mattress in the back and set the mood....

Best DIY Slider Ever:
24" drawer rails + wooden blocks + screws= win.

[metalmonkey47]

Yea I have thought about doing that! Might have to mock something up for next time...

DIY sliders are easy. I made one for about $50 USD out of some Ebay Linear Bearings, copper pipe, Aluminum plate, and some other random bits.

BTW, trucks looking great!!

hey, nice Hilux!
Can you tell me the Offset and width of the wheels?

[boyaljb]

Looks awesome! from a fellow NZer

Nicely done! Just gave it a full read.

This is so rad! Love that woodwork in the bed.

Thanks guys!

I will be going similar as the last one but on a nicer/more reliable scale lol

Looking forward to seeing it



I thought I'd clear up that the wheels aren't Diamonds, they are from Blackrock (http://www.blackrockwheels.com/), called a ' Type D '. One of the few 17" steel wheels I've seen.

Do it! Although, that new truck you have just acquired looks sick. Big plans for it?

Those lights look much better!

Much much better! Love those tails, I have the same type on my 88 toy

Thanks guys, totally agree
