Doc's 05 Tacoma Build Thread

[Dave Bennett]

Have fun with that hole saw... it is kind of hard the first time cutting the big hole!

Yeah... I had butterflies in my stomach when I cut the quarterpanels... this time it's more like dragonflies!

But hey, if I screw it up, it's easier to replace a fender than a bedside! :costumed-smiley-007

Both give you a good excuse for glass!

The bumper looks fantastic:26_7_2: It really compliments your rig.

 

[Streakerfreak]

Look what I found at my front door today!

:shakin: You couldn't fool us.

I can't wait to hear how it works on your rig. This is definitely something I am interested in doing.

TacoDoc I read through your thread and think you're truck is amazing, but I didn't see anything about skid plates. Are you still using the stock ones?

Thanks! Yes, still using the stock ones with good results. Will most likely go to something better in the future...

Maybe Allpro, maybe BudBuilt, maybe heeltoe989 will hook me up with an aluminum set like he has...

Hey Dave, the rear bumper looks great! Although it wasn't that hard to look at in Death Valley the way it was. Very cool set up.

 

[FourByLand]

Yeah, it looks great all finished up!

Look forward to wheeling with you guys again soon!!!

The bumper looks even better powder coated and the price sounds like a deal.

Good work Doc!

 

[MuddyMudskipper]

And I thought your rear bumper looked great raw.

Dave, your truck is sick with a capital "S"! It's been fun watching the build, you've sure done a lot to it in three years. Bravo. Now I want to see some pictures of that beast floating down some obscure river on a bamboo raft in South America. :26_7_2:

Snorkel
