I have an sas'd 88 4runner. I would deff wanna see a 4runner body. I had an 81 shortbed before it and have a hilux body that matched it. Id love to see a 1st gen 4runner, but id take a 2nd gen pickup to. Ive seen 2nd gen 4runner bodies before but it seems like theyre rare...does anyone have anymore info on these??

Why not just do both since your going to be doing it on a CAD program, it would be really easy to change the truck version into the 4runner on there. Then just make 2 molds and sell twice as many bodies.

there is nothing more beautiful than a 3rd gen pickup with a solid front axle.

Hilux Pick-up or Tacoma would be my vote.
I already have a 4Runner and 87 Extracab

cool pictures of the scale ones above, I love them. My vote: 4Runner all teh way. You can already get the peices to make a truck of sorts with the hilux, so corner the idea with a 4Runner.

The poll is kind of to see which style people tend to be more excited about.

With the help of a friendly neighborhood machinist and an awesome artist I know through work contacts I am hoping to get a 3d file made and then a buck that can be experimented on with fiberglass or some other substance to make a body from.





Please note this is not a product feeler thread as I feel its a pipe dream if I get to make one of these for myself someday, if somehow it came to pass that I could A) make these and B) produce them in quantity I would happily buy a vendor star and actually post up something on it.

Just so you know that first pic is my truck.

RIP Truck.
