There is a guy on ebay that sells gen2 extra cabs, he goes by the name "bigbird22" I think... could be wrong on that, if you just hunt around on ebay I am sure you will run across him.

BigBird is a member on Pirate has forms ABS plastic Gen 2 4Runner and I think trucks. If you can't find them on eBay and if you're a member on Pirate, search for him there.

Hmmm...please correct me if I'm wrong but those don't really look like very good quality.

It's because they're homemade, not commercially produced. There are no 2nd gen bodies on the market right now. You could always make one though, like many RC builders do when something you want isn't available

Exactly, in fact I'm in the middle of making a gen3 hilux.

It's very rewarding to try and tackle these things yourself!

Well there ya go - Monteros arent too hard to pull off, just get a couple of pajero bodies and go to town

Its more about patience than skill IMO
