Sweet man, yeah I know about all the work that went into building that truck. Did an '86 4X4 Extracab 15 years ago.. all for naught was lost in a fire.. now have a 3rd gen 4Runner on the go. There's some nice Euro vintage stickers out there if you search the overseas sites. Can't recall right now but they should come up. Thanks for sharing nice work Steve.

I'd rather own and daily drive that truck than a 2020 f350 diesel
Good work

Good work
Wanna trade? HA HA HA HA! This truck is considered a glorified bike stand.... It runs, but zero dollars went to the engine and drivetrain... Was informed that a bike stand does not need to run away with the bike.... I mean... take the girlfriend, leave the bike! HA HA HA HA but thanks man!

1979 Toyota Yamahauler Truck was A HUGE HIT! Thor Drake's "The One Moto Show" (#11) was OFF THE CHARTS! We filled up the entire Memorial Coliseum here in Portland Oregon! We had FLAT TRACK RACES in the same venue! This is a massive 2 story exhibition building next to the Portland Trail Blazer's Moda Center, right smack in the middle of the high-rent district of downtown's North Eastern side! More than 300 bikes on display and not two the same! Steve Miles, owner of North American Muscle Cars, was interviewed my multiple magazines and TV/Cable news stations about this build! So much fun, now I need to finish the decals at windshield's edge because we simply ran out of time! Keep on going Keep on going...

Steve's #805 Yamaha will be replaced with Broc Glover's 1979 Yamaha OW41 at Holigan's Ice House at the Quarry / Garland Texas! Wow! What a project! Thanks for the biz Michael. The truck will be ready to transport by Wednesday this week to make it's way to it's new forever home. NAMCmopar.com appreciates you!

That seat is AWESOME!! Maybe not too late to stencil "YAMAHA" in the middle of the upper black part? (same look as the YZ seat covers)...

Hey Thanks man! Check out how the custom upholstery chosen reflects well on the door panels too.... I thought about the comment found on here to spray YAMAHA at the center of the black seat back... but couldn't make myself do it... we are not yet done telling ourselves how great it looks as-is!

Open? the Ice House? I have not heard and can only guess the worst of Covid did a number on the planned/pending opening date! It is Texas and they are doing better than many places.....

Covid didn't do anything to the Ice House. It's the tyrants that delayed the opening
