Let's see your first gen - photo thread

Clean!

 

This one looks familiar. Are you the guy who inherited the Ivan from their dad?

 

Nice Ivan Stewart edition!

 

Nope, bought it from the original owner in 2021. Kept it well maintained. Interior looks like new. Had neoprene seat covers its whole life. I put ballistic nylon seat covers on it when I got it.

 

Someone on here, I think also in TX, had a similar one in white a while back. Guy inherited from his dad who bought it new. It was in great shape overall but needed some work. Anyway, yours looks awesome, and a rare bird at that.

 

Yeah, I got lucky. Guy lives in South Ft Worth. Had it posted on a website called “Tred”. Never heard of it before. It wasn’t cheap but it was exactly what I was looking for. Not necessarily the Ivan Stewart package, that was just icing on the cake. This will be the last truck I’ll ever buy for myself. Now, my wife? That’s a different story. Spoiled her,

 

It'll be the last truck you buy ... if you take care of it

Keep that timing belt changed every 90k-100k and swap a new Denso radiator and cap while you're in there, replace the LBJ with OEM and fresh bolts every 100k-125k miles, change that oil every 12 months or at mileage, whichever comes first, and I'm sure it'll last an eternity.

We have at least one person on here that should be up around 900k miles at this point...

 

Just so you know I'm not f'ing with you. I rarely forget a truck. Pictures and sounds stick in my brain, it's a curse, especially when I know I've seen it, but can't put any context to it (names/dates/etc.)

Anyway: https://www.tundras.com/threads/name-this-tundy.124204/

That one is a 2002, has different running boards, lacks the TRD side badges, needs the paint buffed out. We haven't seen @Tolkien_tundy in like 18mos, maybe he sold it. But y'alls neighborhoods look almost identical, so was the truck hence the vibes. Though, let's be real, I lived in Arlington and Mansfield, and half the f'n suburban neighborhoods in the DFW area from the last 30-40 years look like that... we had a really similar house on Avanti Dr in Mansfield back in the mid-late 80s.

 

Super clean! Recent photo? Or does everyone else on your street also drive 15+ year old vehicles?

 

Hey I've got the same stock rims, do you know what those are painted with?

 

He hasn't been online in like 6 years, so unlikely you'll get a response, but probably plastidip from the looks of them and based on his comment

 

If you click on a users name it will show you the last time they were logged in to the forum

 

If they have that option enabled; it's enabled by default, but you can disable it if you want to be discrete about your visits.

 

Nice. I like those wheels

 

Thanks, they're FN Wheels Konig BFD's.
I scored a used set of five on FBM for $650. I think a new set of four is twice that.

 

05 Tundra SR5 w/ 150k miles.

This is not my first Yota, but it is my first Tundra. Some might not be fans of what I am doing, but this IS my work truck so it shall be done. Off with the OG bed and a 6'.6" x 7'.6" flatbed is almost finished being built for this ole work horse. I am trying to decide on bigger mirrors to see around the loads and hopefully, eventually, some performance upgrades to get it to haul better.

 

We love flatbeds.
Gears is the way to go for towing

 

Welcome! Please post up flatbed progression pics

 

Been MIA for a bit. But I took this shot at my sister’s ranch while we were there last weekend. Close to Brenham, TX.

 

2002 92k SR5 4WD RC V8, Trying to find a bed cap! Pics from last fall

 

I don't think I've seen those wheels before
Also we have a thread dedicated to finding bed caps/toppers/campers. Check out the last few pages for the most current finds

Wheels are from a 2nd Gen Tacoma Limited 18's, thanks for link!

 

Welcome aboard Grandpa!

They look like the 18's on our 2nd gen Taco 2WD pre-runner, just not nearly as dirty.

 

They're out there. I've seen a couple in the GA/NC/SC/AL area marketplace in recent weeks. Dunno where you are, but ... FB Marketplace is a great option to check. My search terms are "Tundra Camper Shell", and that typically nets a ton of results, not always Tundra, but plenty of them.

 

Im in Ohio, just back from Savanah GA, been looking. Will keep looking!

 

Started life as a 2wd 4.7 SC from day 1
I Converted her to 4wd a few years later

 

Another 4wd conversion! Nice! Have you though about coming to T2S since you're kinda close, depending on which part on Nevada you're in?
