Let’s be honest.... when is a project car really ever finished?! Lol Songs: Marvel83' - Every Evening • Marvel83' - Every Evening Marvel83' - Drift Division • Marvel83' - Drift Divi...
Who ever put this trucks look together for the movie absolutely smashed it out of the ballpark. I think it’s so cool that the movie is universally loved all over the world.
I was 21 when the movie came out. 2 weeks later I went and bought one. Now it wasn't black, mine was the Desert Tan no black on the wheels I bought for it just straight chrome. Really loved that truck, I had it for many years. I sold it after it hit 300k mi. still was running great. Also still looked good, I lived in the same city in California where the "Twin Pines Mall" was ( Puente Hills Mall ) I remember seeing the trucks for filming in the parking lot during the day. To be 21 again. Thank you you brought back many great memories.
It sure did - here we are 35 years later still drooling over that truck! Haha I am so happy to now have the correct steering wheel, really is the cherry on top 😎
Heath - that’s an amazing build. I’m actually in the process of doing the same, only to a first gen 4runner. Obviously no lightbar in the bed. I’d love to get the specs on how you did the front tubes. Thanks for any and all help!
Thanks Stephen, the bars are made in QLD Australia - So, if you are in Australia send me a message on my Facebook page and I’ll give you the fabricators details 😊
I really want one! How is the speed because I heard the diesel engine is great, but it's slow compared to other engines. Great for towing, but not for someone who likes to speed up on the freeway
Awesome truck! I'm looking to build a tribute truck myself. Where did you source the front bumper and roll bar? I have a rear for it but seems to be I may have to fab up the others...
Hey, love the build series! You did a great job. I'm working on building a first-gen 4runner right now. Curious as to what you did with your Aussie spec 4x4 steering wheel as you put the US spec one on. I'd be interested in buying it if you still have it and you're willing to sell it. Let me know. Thanks!
Thanks Peter! I’m glad you liked the build. I actually sent my Aussie wheel to the US already (I basically swapped with that subscriber for his US spec one)
@@HeathsGarage makes sense. No worries just figured I’d ask. Been looking around for one. If you come across one let me know. My Instagram is @pete.bart . Best!
Hey mate. Love the truck it is a dream. I’m in the Sydney area and I’m trying to build the same thing. What is the name of the rims and where did you get them from? Thanks
Love the ute mate. I have a US spec 1988 regular cab and want the McFly wheels like you have. I looked at these US Wheels on Jegs www.jegs.com/i/US-Wheel/947/94-5812/10002/-1 but it says the center bore is too small for my ute. Do you have the part number for yours or can you tell me where you got them? Thanks in advance, and congrats on your ute.
@@HeathsGarage thanks for replying. I just looked on their site and they have two options with our bolt pattern, so I am guessing they no longer stock what you bought or the Aussie spec Hilux has a different center bore to my US spec. Thanks again mate.
