Right , not gonna go into too much detail on this one as it really need a build thread writing properly as this is my project vehicle. Basically after seeing Back to the future as a kid and always wanted Marty's truck so.... I bought this in January as a total non runner Shitbox and have been slowly working my way through her since then. The plan is to make a fairly similar truck to marty's with the exception of being a solid front axle (proper) version rather than marty's IFS truck , also mine is a single cab and his was a 2 door extra-cab but meh... it'll do for me! I'm currently in the middle of a V8 transplant so as i said before , build thread needed for this one. But here's a couple of fairly recent pics of how it's looking..... (still rough but getting there, she will eventually be going gloss black).

I've been looking for a Hilux for about 18 months now to do this too. Can't find any non-rotten ones though.
Good luck, looking forward to how it comes out!!

need to find someone with a Delorean when it's done ;D jules1200 has one, he made it to the last Sheffield meet. Really like the hot pink on the engine, looks pretty awesome. Now, to complete the set, who's going to make the flying steam train? And why don't I have a hoverboard yet?
