Its honestly kinda crazy how long its taken me to start this build thread of my 80, But better sooner then never right? A little back story about me and the 80. Dad bought the 80 back in late 2007 early 2008, honestly too young at the time to remember exactly when from a doctor who bough it for his son to take the college but ended up wanting something else, so Dad went to Virginia to go look at it. At the time it was a unlocked 80 with somewhere around 200k, Seized brake calipers and a few other things fixed later he brought it home! I instantly fell in love the 80. I thought it was the coolest vehicle ever, Still do lol. Honestly loved it cause i wouldn't be slamming my head against the back window of the access cab Tacoma everytime we went over a bump that my dad used to have. Once we got the 80 we got introduced to Olde North State Cruisers, The people i can gladly call my family as i've they've seen me grow up and all i remember as a kid is running around spilling their beer and punching them in the balls. Sorry @GLTHFJ60 and @custyota it was nothing personal lol. Ever since then ive fell in love with cruisers. as i would go around the campsites asking random people about their cruisers and ultimately ending with can i drive your cruiser lol.
