Post My nice weather cruiser, very non off road oriented...
Mazda B2000 cab plus. I bought it nearly bone stock on Friday the 13th in October 13 years ago.

It has gone through a couple incarnations, most recently over the last couple years. It currently has a 2.5" body drop, full air ride with 3-link rear, all on board air and controls, all shaved up except the gas door which will be going away soon, all OEM panels and such, fresh rebuild on the motor with pacesetter header, weber carb, etc. etc. Currently sits on 16" Chevy Silverado wheels but I have some chrome Escalade wheels in my kitchen for it.

It is currently primer blue. Its a mix we made late one night with a bottle of pearl thrown into the mix. Pinstriping was done by hand in House of Kolors True Blue.

Very well done. I'm not much on low riders, but I do appreciate the work involved! I helped Steve drop his '66 DeVille, and it was a job :roll: He went pretty conservative on his BMW :mrgreen:

It has had both a 2wd and 4wd all chrome Yota bumpers in the past. They look killer from the front and not so hot from the side. They just don't fit the lines of the front fenders so I ditched them for the correct fitting mazda factory stuff. When it comes time to paint the bumper will probably get painted to match.

I've seen them with Ford Escort lights also. I have yet to see a headlight conversion that i liked. My buddy did a complete Frontier front clip on his, then scrapped it all, bought a brand new Frontier, and did it up. It is the only standard cab 05 Frontier we know of. Sitting on 24's and 26's. Was at SEMA last year in the DUB booth.
