OK, I'll be starting a new project vehicle soon, but first I'd like to toss around a few ideas.....
I finally took delivery on a 1GR-FE 4.0L V-6 engine, RA60F 6-speed transmission and all the electrical to get it running. It came out of a 2005 Tacoma that rolled with only 125 miles on the odometer.
Now here's the dilemma...... what type of trail rig should I build? Should I keep it street legal or a trailer only buggy.
OK if I build a street legal rig, I have everything to make it smog legal, so the options are to drop it into a FJ40 or a Jeep. Yes that's right a JEEP! Well why not they are much cheaper to acquire. So I'll have a Jeep with a Toyota drivetrain, the best of both worlds....
Or should I just build a tube buggy and be done with it, the problem is, I'm limited to where I can wheel it, but then there would be no worries on breaking....
OK let the debating begin, let me hear your thoughts or ideas.......
