How did You Get Started Working on Your Toyota Truck?

I started building my first car, 1940 Ford coupe, 312 T Bird motor w/2 -fours and a 1957 Ford station wagon rear, when I was 11 years old and drove it in high school. I have always owned street rods and customs. I bought my first Toyota 4x4 truck in 1979 and my last in 1983 which I still have. I have had so much fun and great memories with my Toyota truck that I would never sell it (the wife will have responsibility after I pass on). I have great cars to drive, 1932 Ford all steel 3-Window Coupe by Coddington and 1950 Mercury Coupe by Barris but I still love to drive my Toyota truck.
Wow, nice work!

Love that 50 Merc had a 49 not quite as customized a few years ago. Unfortunately she had to leave to make way for a few newer toys.

I only like working on vehicles when I actually have a good shop and places to put all of my tools, work without kicking my feet and shins on stuff. Really need a decent sized workshop, that's my goal.
