Project: Brava-dime

[layinbody31]

ok The frown is in no way associated with you going to FL, just simply because you wouldn't be coming to IN

[Slappy McNasty]

trust me man, id love to take a month to swing by everyones address on here who has chatted with me or wanted to see the truck. its just not feesable to make everyone 100% happy. again, this is still in "talks" and in no way am i locked in nor am i walking away from it. ive always dreamed to hit TEXAS HEAT WAVE or TEX-MEX or GATOR DRAG or any other show ive ever read about online or in MINITRUCKIN' but trips like those arent in the cards for a small town minitrucker like me. this would be biggr than the superbowl and the world series combined if all the cards fall into play

[Wicked Mayhem]

would be awesome of the truck made that long trip. that 2.2 is going to hate you!

[Slappy McNasty]

DAMN IT WICKED!!!! thats my fear, just outta town mobbing at 65 and BLAMMO, instant 3 cylinder (lmao). im fearful to be honest but with concuring fear comes excellent concor'age to me. imagine it, driving a completely junkyard build across this fine country of ours.
*plus, i have only been to like 4 states on my life. this is a win/win if it occurs

[flnole78]

As much as I would love to see this at Spring Fling, I will tell you Heat Wave is closer to you and is a much better show. I went there last year, great show.

[Curtis262]

it would be sick if you could hit spring fling the most of us down her in florida are tired of seein the same ole shit at all the shows id definitely half to go to the show then

[sonomaguy]

When is Spring Fling?

[93_Blaze]

Have faith in the 2.2! I'm sure you could even win a 'long distance traveled' along with a top class or something haha. Truck looks good as always sir!

Would be cool to finally see this truck. You for sure win the longest distance award. Lol

[Fast & Low]

i think you should go to layd out at the park instead.

[whitelowereddime]

What did you use to fill the holes on your front bumper? I have a bravada bumper and am looking for some ideas

[Slappy McNasty]

i used some sheetmetal. bent it at the "sides" to match the curvature and used pop rivits and faux wood grain to add more detail

[wildman ss]

if this thing is at spring fling then I'll definitely go, be worth it just to see it in person

[Slappy McNasty]

im crossing fingers man, trust me.

[98layinframe]

hell if you drive this thing the entire way across the country... Good lord I'd commend you! That would be amazing!!!

[Squeek]

yea layed out in the park would be ballin!!!!!

[98layinframe]

Hey slappy, I know its in here somewhere... but what setup are you running suspension wise up front? drop spindles, speedway uppers and stock dehumped lowers right?

[Squeek]

you get my pm slappy?

[Slappy McNasty]

98layinframe - Hey slappy, I know its in here somewhere... but what setup are you running suspension wise up front? drop spindles, speedway uppers and stock dehumped lowers right?
thats it, home made cups made to fit/tuck while layed out but thats it.

Squeek - you get my pm slappy?
i did, i have a couple pics but looking thru my 5 flash drives is a pain in the friggin' a$$, lol

.............all others, its still being debated on the cruise to florida, nothing in stone as of yet. alot of things have to fall into place, in fact everything has to fall into place. money, time, shoulder and what doctors tell me, funds, taxes and what unkle sam is gonna do, etc. its not just some tire wear and gas moneys for this

[slonlow2000]

If so I need a map of the tour dates to see if your stoping in a town near me. Lol, I want to see this thing.

[Squeek]

lol sweet

[whitelowereddime]

You get that package I sent you?

[Slappy McNasty]

unless it was the sex wax air freshner envelope, no i didnt get anything. when did you send it?

[whitelowereddime]

Haha that was it. Thought it would go good in the mirror. Came from the Ron Jon surf shop On panama city beach

[Slappy McNasty]

sorry i didnt post the pic up. its been in there since my son ripped open the package. truck smells like a dream too, cant wait to drive it to the next show

[V8Blaze]

well if this big beast makes it through LA, near baton rouge, you can count of some grub and fun from me man.

[Slappy McNasty]

i appreciate it!!!! the "route" has me touching the great state of LA so i will definately swing thru. its all in the hands of our tax-man and well find out this friday if i make the trek or im staying home crying like a bitch!!! lol

[whitelowereddime]

Looks great!

[LowRidinDime]

Slappy no Spring Fling....Layd out at the park!!!! I'll pay for your hotel, got 1 I'm holding till last minute. LAyd out at the park!! remember that! Oh yea directions for ya sir.....its an hour closer also. http://www.mapquest.com/?version=1.0...49e65cb23fc701

[Slappy McNasty]

after much consideration and attempting to make a mountain out of a mole hill, the idea of running across the country has been washed. the guy i was gonna caravan w/ has to have back surgery from an accident he had during work, add to that unkle sam RAPED me for the first time in 17 years on our taxes. i guess i should have lagged on posting the possibility but i had to share it.
i do however have a show update, went just over 2 hours north of me to a show thrown by Pharcyde Customs car club and altho the weather was rediculous it was a blast to hang with the peoples and see rides that usually i dont see. was killer but check the drive-home pics:

leaving my town, looks grim:



at the show:











and to get home:

[StirFrey]

in case you forgot, your truck is still epic

[OneLowGreek]

I love the fact you actually drive it to shows and not trailer it around! Looking good as usual

[layinbody31]

So do you take your wipers on and off whenever it's gonna rain? Notice them in the driving pic but nothing in the show pics

[Slappy McNasty]

i take them with me at shows along w/ my cleaning supplies where im not exactly sure when its gonna rain and i have some wooden drawer pulls that i swap when i get to those shows. i also rain-x the windows so even tho its was a monsoon, it wasnt as bad as it couldve been. i hate wipers cause they scratch the crap outta the stickrs on the windshield but its safety first, always

STIRFREY - ONELOWGREEK = thanks you guys, it was built to be driven. weather not a prohibiting factor either way.

[Slappy McNasty]

over this weekend i was fortunate enough to catch a ride on the //relaxed atmosphere caravan to the FORBIDDEN FANTASY show in Perris, Ca. about 4 1/2 hours south of us. i had my ass handed to me in the full or radical class, the stuff coming out now is overwhelming to say the least. Oliver Porters (domination the video creator) Toyota was there and easily the best truck ive ever seen front to back, top to bottom. absolutely clean........ also have a few pics from the drive home, surreal monsoon weather all the way thru the tehachapi mountains complete with snow.





















Olivers Toyota............



















and heres a frame that is being built for an upcoming s-10..... DROOLED FOR HOURS ON THIS!

















and the drive home for me...........

[MaveRankus]

Still love your truck though. Very unique. Seeing those trucks makes me realize that I don't have a big enough wallet yet to build something like that, lol. Or the skils/time, lol.

[baggedsonoma22]

did you see this on that yellow yoda?


it was nice to talk to you again and thanks for all the pics of my truck on street source.

[Stewzer55]

Its the details like that that take these rides to the next level.

[Super Fly]

this thread is crazy. i love how many picz you take. dope ass truck!!

[tohoopty]

i was wondering what olivers toyota was gonna look like when it was done.

[Matt96Dime]

If you come to camp n drag in waveland indiana. I,ll hand you a cold case of whatever you want & give you my cell number to give a shout when you arrive at the entrance of the camp grounds!! I,ll keep em cold from the grocery store to the cooler in the bed!!! I, Would love to see this truck parked next to Les Voudrie crew cab toyota in severed ties. You both have built a one off one of a kind crew cab long bed truck that people literally have dropped jaws over! Not to mention Camp N drag is such a great time, this year will be one to remember for sure!

[ProfessorKaos]

Make that 2 cases!

[sonomaguy]

How many show up for Campand drag? Is it fairly large? Would like another show to go to in the U.S.

[Matt96Dime]

Their is nothing like CAMP-n-DRAG. You've gotta make it down Sonoma Guy.

[layinbody31]

I agree. There's a whole group of Canadian guys that come down too

[ProfessorKaos]

People come from as far north as canada to as far south as texas and everywhere inbetween. But I think any further discussion should happen in the camp n drag thread so we dont ruin this wonderful one.

[TRPLS10]

truck is looking good slap

From what I understand There is "LBD" hidden in many places all over Oliver's Toyota... It stands for Little Baby Dick.... and is a "gift" from the guys at Sprengels Innovative Kustoms
