Nice. Post a pic of the new truck. The 4runner is a gas hog, but so is everything else in the fleet.

Glad I'm not the only one with spring OCD.
Not bad for 1972 paint.

Sweet! Always wanted a 2002...

Glad you liked it, I've been watching your E28 build very sweet.
The 02 is is a full rally build underneath.
Hotrod M10, with 292, 10.5:1, dual webers, coilovers, larger sways, 5 speed, lsd, recaros, 100ltr rally tank. She will do 500+ miles at 80. Just a blast. Definitely a keeper, original Cali car took about 2 years to do with a few little things to finish. Left the body as I got it. Currently looking for a 535 to build along your lines, stunning. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1590531950.jpg

This is the most calming photo I have ever seen on this forum.

Toss one back for me in that sanctuary, Girt.
