2005 black taco (my dream is coming true)

[William Beere]

I had waited a very long time and some seriously frustrating years but i finally last year bought a tacoma. I am thankful i got the colour i wanted since i had a TIGHT budget. Last july it started stock. we went on a few camping trips and i convinced my wife (didn't take much lol) to let me do a few things to it. her response was your truck your money. after that it was on!!!!! so here is a few photos that i have taken to document my slow build. but exciting!
if anyone does want to follow our adventures through british columbia and beyond my instagram handle is @blacktacomonster

Watching! Just bought my Tacoma last night after some long thought and a little bit of being in love with them for a good while too.

Good luck!

THANKS! my wife is growing concerned with my level of obsession :). I am always looking for new parts or used parts i can find. its a lot of fun. i feel my daily driver is soon going to be not so efficient to be a daily and i will be on the bus haha

Congrats on the truck! Looks like you did a good job convincing her. lol! I built my JK with mostly used or self fabricated parts. The only parts I bought new were the lift, front bumper, and the roof rack. Taco looks good!

this was from a trip for my birthday. up on harrison lake B.C.
and this was the past week.
lost of work in the last week. and wayyyyy to many dollars. so broke :(

Canopy is now on with my rat that i have had for a few months, i put bed stiffeners in just to insure, blacked out the wheels and badges, built some bed drawers with tie downs on top.

camping this weekend should be epic!!!!
