What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

Grandma writes her name on everything, and we wrote 'not' a couple times, but for years when we go to family reunions all our coolers and tupperwares are marked 'not emily's'

 

Epic! It must be a texas thing!

 

My great grandma died last year, she was 98. There is so much snarky BS between her living kids, but everyone else has a great time.

i guess she kept it going, it thinned a little this year. Dunno how long it will last.

and it was in vidor. So thats a solid 6 hour drive. And those dbags keep building in the swamp, so you have to add an hour for traffic.

 

I only get to see my extended family at funerals. #GettingOldSucks

 

I keep in touch with cousins on both sides, and aunts and uncles on my moms side.

getting old does suck. I mean im mostly immortal, i earned this ache in my knee. Its the weathers fault. but i wont get old.

 

I keep debating bronze on my tundra.

 

@empty_lord


I realize you have other things to drive, but with an exhaust like that, i think you oughtta enjoy it.

 

LOL. I drove the mr2 around the lot today to get the fluids moving. That thing sounds good enough to satisfy me. If all goes well next week the truck should have a new door at least so it can be driven..

 

Where'd ya get the door? Videos of the MR2?

 

where’s darkness when you need him?!

 

Tundra on call
Broken access panel, I’ll take it!

 

The dark knight

 

It's almost exactly the same -- 22.5" front and 22.5" back.

 

I’m going to Iowa today to look at one. If that’s isn’t good I’ve got 3 on the way back to go see

 

How bad is the damage behind the fender where the door attaches to the body? Is that F’d up as well? Can it be pounded back in shape?

 

Twisted. Frame rack is a must. Not twisted a lot. But it’s twisted

 

Well good luck getting it back in alignment. Hopefully it will all work out.

 

It’s going to the best body guy in the whole region. The shop that did the work originally is swamped. Get the damage fixed, finally fix the hood that was missed the first go around and have the cab corner that’s bent fixed.. the old door kept ripping out the window track because of the cab corner not holding the door tight tight. So it had to happen.. just sucks there’s extra shit needed

 

If there's another good candidate, cab you get me a driver's door also? I know you're pressed for time, but I'll pay you for your time, and the door.

 

ill let you know

 

Thanks! I don't give a shit what color, or trim, or year. As long as its a non-rusty door, and the door check metal isn't fucked. Side moulding or not. It don't matter to me! Thanks in advance!

 

there is an reg cab in white down in indianapolis that may be what you'd want.

I think I fixed my shell leak *crossing fingers*. Garage door seal to make a drip edge, water is just flowing right off away from the bed instead of making its way in:

Tundra on call.
Parked in front of “the nasty nado”

clogged shower drain, snaked it and cleared it.

 

Is your whip inside that candy cane? Nevermind, I know it is.. that's awesome!

 

Nasty Nado? What is that? The name of an on-campus residence?

 

Hahah yeah a nick name, I had never heard it called that before but we saw some list on tik tok which were the best dorms on campus; Coronado is it’s real name, it’s known as a party dorm for sure. There’s also this weird creepy old AF professor that makes and takes a cart full of s’mores to the building in the evening and hands them out, I had one before and I didn’t wake up in a gutter, so that’s good!

 

Managed to improve my my wife’s malibu shitbox today when I scored a pristine taillight assembly at the Pull a Part. Replaced this for $27 rather than $200 from the dealer :

 

Got them old shackle hangers off today. Pulled the old rubber bushings out of the shackles and replaced them with polys. Painted the frame where the old hangers were and letting that set up over night. Tomorrow morning the Archives go on.
