Before and After

[darrell75]

Thanks to all the help on MUD I was able to do a lot of the work myself. Thanks to toyotapartszone.com I was able to keep all original Toyota parts.

Very nice dude.. give us a bit more low down on what all you did!!

 

[darrell75]

Parts include: complete factory exhaust, air flow meter, throttle position sensor, radiator, ac compress, steering box (rebuilt), OME from Cruiser Dan, stock chrome rims from Mud member, new dash and cluster, shifter, new old transmission from Cruiser parts (89k miles). I think thats it.

Very nice. Silver looks so much better.
Is that some kind of metallic blueish silver?

Original interior just needed a little love.

Yeah the previous owner painted it black. I wanted it original so i used the factory light metallic blue. It was two-toned but i went woth the sold, kind of have second thoughts about that one now, hahahaha.

Meant to add the exhaust was pocked up from Spector in LA.

I remember when mine was stock with no scratches, dents, or mods...

They are beautiful classic trucks before we beat them up wheeling.

That is awesome dude and good for you for going all stock Toyota.
So what size/type lift did you get from OME? And what size tires? Looks like you went with a 2.5" Light/Medium (f/r) with 31" BFG ATs?

You're Exactly right man! Good eye.

So what do you plan to do with it? Will she be a garage queen, a fun time rig, or a daily driver?

Not really sure man. I was planning on it being a daily driver but possibly may put it up for sale. I moving to Miami for grad school and it may be appreciated more here on the west coast.

Don't sell it! I live in the big city and everybody here is used to seeing BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc. they don't look twice, but I can't tell you how many times I have been given the thumbs up or a nod or some guy wants to chat it up at the gas station. You get more respect in one of these I promise you that!

Good looking truck keep it

Thanks for getting rid of the black, it has no place on a 60.

 

[CLK Foxhall]

Much better.

Love the look of a stock 60.


Cheers!

New stock color looks fabulous! But am I the only one who thinks black doesnt look all that bad?

 

[rapovt]

I don't know if your reason behind this is thinking you'll have rust problems or not, but I'll address it in case that is your reason. Florida isn't the same as the Northern states on the East coast. We don't get the snow, and therefore, no salt. Our winters are generally dryer, and what rain does fall usually dries off the road relatively quickly because it still gets warm here even in winter.

I think you're going to regret it if you sell it, and then get done with school and wish you still had it. The truck will last a few Florida winters in Miami.

Indeed. I've been toying with the idea of painting mine black, but now that I've seen it I don't like it. Now I'm leaning toward either white or dark gray.

Looks great!
