I wish more videos were done this way. The gentleman started, showed progress, then showed the finish product, in a classy way. No talk, no BS, just a solid video. Good job young man.
R u my dad?
Kind words, YOUNG man.

This guy is an artist of the automotive world! It was a labor of love for him making those bumpers! I wish I had talent (and tools) like that!
I lost my shit when he started making bumpers *from scratch!*
@jesusiscoming.readthegospe9184lol
extremely impressive, don't think ill get my 90' looking that good! you have some serious talent.
Thanks!!
@@austinniemela awesome work man 👍👍 now that hilux can go another 30yrs or more. Btw what’s your thickness of steel for your bumpers is it 3/16, 1/4, 5/16?
Thanks for the time you've spent on editing and working on the car itself, pure perfection and dedication. No more words needed. ❤️
Man that only took him 12 minutes... maybe I’ll buy one and do this.
Lol 😆

12 more minutes and he could’ve went straight axle.

As an engineer, I fucking loved this!! Amazing. No talk, no bullsh*t, just pure progress. Keep it up man
Thank you!
@@austinniemela you are welcome!

@@trcs3079 Actually no, I'm a practicing Process Engineer for an electronic semi conductor factory that makes throttle position sensors in Malaysia for the last 4 years. If you want, I could provide you with the link where it states my professional background in the Board of Engineering of Malaysia which is accredited by the Washington Accord?
Boom roasted 😂😂
This is one of the most impressive things I have ever seen. The patience and skill set here is amazing.
Damn, the slide hammer stuff made me happy.
My father worked in an autobody shop for like 60 years and I remember watching him do magic on metal with his hammer and dolly when I was a kid. Glad to see people still working on the body the old fashioned way instead of just replacing all the time.
No talking no lame jokes just pure work and dedication 💯
Oooo

No phoney porn star "stepmom".
anyone that has never done this has no idea how much work that all is! My hats off to you!
I'm barely qualified to work on a skateboard and the idea of keeping track of where all those parts and bolts go had me sweating...
You have to know how to use the tools and be a Craftsman as well..
this video is a work of art. the man is a genuis. the finish is so beautiful. the labour seems so effortless yet precise. that would be a dream to have a car customized or rebuilt like this. incredible. the power of one person.
As an original owner of a 96 Landcruiser, I can tell you, Toyota makes stuff worth maintaining and restoring. The more I work on my truck, the more impressed I am. This pickup is a peach!
Can’t even begin to tell you how much I’m impressed, the sheer skill and quality in those bumpers alone. 👑🤩
Thanks man I appreciate that!
u know right? the bumper looks nice as fuck... wish he could make one for mine lol
@@jaybajan l
Most us cardboard and don’t even know what a level is but these boys are the real deal. Pat yourselves on the back great job
I'd pay to have a bumper built for my 07 4runner
I like small, nimble, lightweight, powerful, high revving cars.
But... That truck is AWESOME!!!
Love the bumpers design (and construction) and the paint job.
You really gave an old truck a new life.
Nothing better than the Pride of doing something yourself.
☎
As if you built it.
Nothing better than a tacoma. Toyota lifted the bar with this truck. Theres a reason why you still see the first gen style 20 years later!
Especially if you capitalize it

Awesome! Thanks for watching!!

@Diego Falcon 💯
Me too it take all my attention
Wow! What an incredible art piece you've created. You took that truck to a whole different level. Respect!
Great work!!! Love the simple, clean bumpers. Way better than the bulky ones they sell aftermarket.👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
When I was younger ( 77 ) now, I prided myself as a pretty good mechanic. But you take “mechanic” to a whole new level. Hands of gold. Great job !!! 👍
Thank you!!!
@@austinniemela not fair! you make it look easy! I'm not 77 yet ,but, Your using a great skill that came with a lot of time fabricating. great job again.
I had the honor to drive this magnificent V6 for 6 years..never let me down and had more than 250 k miles.. I was so sad that I had to sell it..greetings from Greece
there were so many layers to this, and you did them all well. congrats, bro! good to see hard work pay off!
Love how you made this Toyota pickup look!!!! Amazing! People who know how to do this work should do this to old cars/trucks.
I hope this blows up for you man this was one fun build to watch.
Thank you brother!!
Not the truck, the channel :P
Lol don't use "blow up", he's boosting that a lot
@@BenLinn yoooooo oh no no that’s not what I meant 😂. I
@@gonzalosanchez6387 definitely the channel Austin knows what I meant. 😂
I love the older style of these Toyota trucks. Now they seem so huge. I live in the city and parking is a hassle for any big truck. Awesome job you did! Didn't even look like the same truck.
The truck of choice for the Taliban, they can haul 14 men to meet their Virgins in style..........LOL
@@t.j.h2810 at least it don't break down like bitch ass fords🤡😂
@@t.j.h2810 Makes sense that talibans would choose these types of trucks, they are actually reliable unlike ford and chevy🤡

Absolutely incredible! You are truly gifted man. Amazing talent and beautiful results. I’m now inspired to do my ‘91 pickup! Thanks Austin!
Absolutely Beautiful. I can watch this over and over and it makes me want to fabricate and build again.
I inherited a 1991 Toyota 4x4 pickup with 89K from New Mexico (Zero Rust) two years ago. All service was done at the dealer and all records came with the truck along with a log of every drop of gasoline that was put into it. No rips, no cracks in the dash just some patina on the paint. It was owned by a Scientist that worked at a national lab that's why the records were so complete. They are great trucks that will never be produced again.
th-cam.com/video/MKM_VMqDpBk/w-d-xo.html
I have no words, this build was something that can never be duplicated. I never post comments for the most part, but I was disgusted in the beginning when I saw it was just a run down truck. My mind was blown when you turned it into a damn road tank by the end! Mfing mad respect for you.
Thank you!!
I wish more videos were done this way. The gentleman started, showed progress, then showed the finish product, in a classy way. No talk, no BS, just a solid video. Good job young man.
dedication, hard work and a lot of love was used in the transformation of this pickup
Que trabalho maravilhoso, parabéns!!! Os para choques ficaram incríveis... Showww D+
Can’t even begin to tell you how much I’m impressed, the sheer skill and quality in those bumpers alone. 👑朗
And you did everything yourself, engine, bodywork, fabrication, paint, very cool. Congrats.
Thanks 👍
Quite impressive!!
Whats the paint's name?
@@ianpaulasa4565 Raptor
@@oliwiergront thanks.. rubberized right?
Having a decent space and the tools to be able to work effectively and efficiently is a factor in being able to work on your own vehicles. Having some mechanical abilities is definitely a plus.😉
And money...

@@francolopez8283 yes money is why all of us doesn't have nice tools and place like him
@@saymovie5278 why did you copy the other guy's comment?

This was a great video. I’m 19 with 2 project cars I bought myself , a 1970 impala and a ‘92 Nissan hardbody pickup. You definitely inspire me to get to working on them myself. You deserve more views and we definitely appreciate your hustle !
Man what a beauty, even when I was in my younger teens in the mid 90s i liked these, there was a very basic one with an extended cab not lifted and they just looked too neat to me..
Had i known how sought after theyd be growing up id definately have gotten one.
The pointy style front end on the late 80s and 90s looked good to me.
A man, a machine, skill, tools and dedication... The result: a masterpiece!
Can’t believe it only took you 12 minutes and 4 seconds to rebuild this truck to perfection... Awesome!
Likewise 🤣

And even a full size truck fits on your mobile screen. Ooooooo

🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dude you have some serious talent I wish I had a mechanic like you around here
Man, you have some great skills there. Learned a lot by watching you in action -- thanks!
Words can’t explain how much I love these old Toyota trucks they are build so damn tough
Top gear, UK, tried to destroy one and couldn't.
Same
@@andrewh5457 yes I watch dat
Then why can't you find them anymore? :D
they’re incredible. I have a 94 toyota pickup and i love it to death
This young man is not a mechanic, welder, body-man or painter. He’s an artist. The truck just happens to be his canvas. Look at his shop. It’s neat and looks spotless. On the other hand, for the value of his time and materials he could have bought a new truck. I would guess that the flat bed truck was another project. I watched the whole video. Unique. Well done. Thank you.
Thank you i really appreciate that!!!
Wow! This 1990 pickup has a 5VZ engine?! What a monster! And great restore!👍🏼
I was looking for the guy to comment on that! I knew I couldn’t be the only one to notice. lol
@@wakerider94 lol I was looking too. I mean even though the fabrication and body work may seem most creditable of this vid, a 5VZ in a 6th gen pickup is a nice upgrade. To note, though, the 22RE and the 3VZ are great engines.
I saw that too, glad someone was smart enough to swap out the 3VZE early on, that's the only thing I dislike about my truck now is the engine in it, if I can get a crate engine I'm going to engine swap it with a 5VZ
Glad I came across this video! Amazing build. Makes me wanna look for an older Tacoma now. GREAT WORK!
Awesome! Thank you!
I was an auto body man years ago, it's crazy that it's about the feel in your hands not the sight of your eyes. Very good job young man, you have all my respect.

Next level fabricating and in depth custom job! Somethin to be proud of 👍🏻
Proper skills. Most of cannot be taught. It comes only thru passion, patience, dedication, drive and other attributes...very inspiring for me. BIG UPSS...👌
Watching this makes me realize how much I miss my 99 Toyota pickup. Never thought it would be possible to make it better but I'm sure this young man could. Wow.
Yea it does, I have a 99 tacoma Xtra cab and only has 49k miles on it
th-cam.com/video/KHiN4kiw6Vo/w-d-xo.html
This can't even be considered a restoration. It's a literal resurrection. And this man must be Toyota Christ of Tacoma.
XD
I understand what your saying but seriously never blaspheme. Unless you wanna go to hell and burn for an eternity
@@pumpkinspicenick923 I understand what your (sic) saying, but I don't care.
Also, pumpkin spice is ass.
@@thatguythatdoesstuff7448 This is why nobody can love you John and you'll never come close to being the person your father expected and hope you would be.
You'll always be the one that had potential but squandered it. Even your mother is tired of the shit you've put her through.
Maybe it's time you leave, stop hurting those around you. It's obvious you don't care about he suffering your family and those around you have experienced due to your ineptitude and unwillingness to follow the right path.
@@pumpkinspicenick923 I knew pumpkin spice would set you off. Easy mark.
Restoration of antiquities. Amazing job in an amazing car that deserved a second life. Congratulations.
Man I can’t tell how much respect I have for this work!
Truly impressive...I would watch this as a TV show
I don’t want any cars,all i wish is i have a talent like this guy💪🏼
Would like to buy one like this restored in California... pref Northern
One of my favourite videos of all time. I came back almost every month to rewatch it! Very good job! 👌
Dang thanks for watching!! 👍👍
Wish I had the skill and know how to do the mechanical work on a project like this. I can disassemble anything but reassembling it back to working condition is where I always fall short! Bad ass build!
Hey kids, this here is an example of a fine young and extraordinary human. Watch him, aspire to be like him cuz they don't make em like this no more.
That Goes For Me Too!!
It's funny 'cause I doubt you or anyone you know (older or otherwise) has this skill set
Toyota should give this man a truck for all this work he did and to show people how good is Tacoma
Job well done, tidy, to the point and good workmanship. A pleasure to watch this transformation.
Good job young man and take care of your hilux and it will take care of you
Thanks!
@@austinniemela Hi I like your work
Brilliant
Using a tree to pull out the door is actually genius
This dude just basically built a truck from scratch… he must be a wizard
I wish more videos were done this way. The gentleman started, showed progress, then showed the finish product, in a classy way. No talk, no BS, just a solid video. Good job young man.
He did an amazing job. But I feel like your definition of "from scratch" is askew. I'm pretty sure the "from scratch" happened in Japan.
@@blueschild61 using deductive reasoning, you must be right. Its the only realistic conclusion
Makes any Dad proud to see his son accomplish a hardened task of this nature

Best handmade Hilux bumpers on TH-cam. They look so tough and suit the body shape well without being amateur or over the top. So many people do these badly but you nailed it perfectly 👌
Wow, thanks!
Better than Scotty Kilmer lol jk. But man no words to describe in details how amazing job he did with his truck. Words is an understatement. This guy can change peoples lives!
This is like watching whistlin diesel in reverse.
So true😂
Repairing a beat up hilux would be viral
Beat me to it lol
That guy makes it easy to dislike him.
@@MmmmGoodBoy oh yeah
You did a great job. We need more people who have the love for reviving Toyota trucks. Keep up the good work. 👍
Hermoso trabajo, genial!
Awesome work looks brand new
Incredible. This vid should be required viewing at all middle schools, so that kids understand they can learn practical skills that may just allow them to help themselves and even make a living.
👍👍👍
I agree
Kids now a days would rather work with their fingers not their hands☹️
if theres any type of truck that deserves a restoration its these ones
Wow, great job! that takes mad skill to disassemble everything clean it, repaint it, and put it together that's awesome.
I would loved to see the interior transformation 😍
That’s a masterpiece.
No pointless intro, no snarky comments, no failed jokes. Just a man showing us his craft. Love it.
Great!!!!-You have truly made an incredible transformation; I would like to know what they can do to my Toyota Rav4 2017 to be different, maybe not as much as what I see in the video, but if some transformation..
Congratulations! What a nice and clean job! 12 minutes of art! Greetings from Brazil!
This is the perfect length of what I expect a restoration video to be. No talking just montage and it doesnt dwell on certain stuff. Awesome video
Thanks!
After watching this I just texted the guy who bought my 96 Tacoma a few years back. I wonder if I can buy it back... 😂
let me know how it goes i’m getting a 1995 pickup tomorrow
WOW! I was having the same exact thought about my 1990 Toyota P/U. Hahaha. I’m really missing that thing.
Did you get it back?
I wish more videos were done this way. The gentleman started, showed progress, then showed the finish product, in a classy way. No talk, no BS, just a solid video. Good job young man.
Many years ago, I had a 1966 Chevelle 396 SS 375 HP; bored out .030 over; blueprinted / balanced with too many upgrades to list here. Anyway, I sold it to a crazy fireman and he had it a week and blew up the engine. The block was even destroyed.I almost thought about buying back until I looked under the hood and told him he could keep it. He had no idea what a redline was for on the tach. It was a 7,500 RPM engine. Holley 850, double pumper; Edlebrock aluminum mid-rise intake; dual-point ignition; 40,000 volt coil; Muncie Rock Crusher 4 speed; 4:10 rear end; etc......many many hours up in smoke. 😢 Hooker headers; 4-bolt mains; deep sump oil pan....I could not afford to duplicate that car today.
Man, I personally enjoyed the way he build the front bumper!! Awesome job !!
Отличная работа! В России много ценителей таких автомобилей
The toyota hilux/tacoma is probably the best pickup ever made, you did an amazing job on this project. I just wish toyota had diesel engines in the US.
I said the same thing to a friend and he told me to just get a diesel engine out of a jetta and drop it in it 🤦🏼♂️😆
@@zacharydrube7619 or Mercedes or kubota
@@zacharydrube7619 .. You have to change the Diff ratio as well. Unless you want very low speed and more torque...
I had a nearly identical 91. I would have had to restore it to the original white, as mine was as well. Bedliner does not hold up as well as paint over the years in my experience.
You've done a very thorough and complete job of this, and it shows everywhere. I especially like that you made your own bumpers and mounted your own tires. Very well done.
Blown away by your skills. Mad props.
What an exceptional job this guy done to restore a Toyota Hilux.
Exceptional video,no BS talk just showing the process of restoration.
WELL DONE!
Incredible transformation incredible skills incredibly talented
Incredible dents he left in the thing too...What a waste..Oh just realized this isn't my account I'm watching this video under lol

Testament to Toyota that the motor and trans just needed cleaning to go again!
Is that a true thing or just a myth? I’m really curious not trying to be sarcastic
@@giovanniflores7068 some of their engines run forever. Which ones IDK. But yes it's true.
@@giovanniflores7068 they didn't rebuild it, just washed it and refitted...
@@giovanniflores7068 You have to take care of them tho. And if you find a older one that was taken care of you will be doing good. New stuff I am not sure about. But those like in this video have good motors in them. Think of getting one myself. Drove a few before, but I think an old one would be great to have
@@giovanniflores7068 the old 22r and 22re were extremely reliable engines. These v6s, not so much. Not the worst but I'd prefer a 4 cyl toyota for reliabilitys sake.
Man... I want that flat bed... damn. Awesome job dude. Like truly amazing for one person to be this skilled in all those areas.
Dude you rocked it!! Awesome vid and you did a killer job! You’re extremely talented and you’ve got every tool known to man! I really enjoy your vids, you’ve taught me a lot and given me great tips on products, I’ve got a white ‘94 Toyota Xtra cab DXL 4x4 3.0 V6 EFI with locking hubs that I bought new in ‘94. It’s still going strong and looks and drives awesome! I get asked if I want to sell it every time I drive it. I’ve had guys follow me home to ask if I want to sell it. Every time I go to the dealer the service guys all gather round and “eyeball” it. It’s an oldie but a goodie for sure. I love this era Toyota truck and I see that you do too. Thanks for all the fun!!!😎

This is one of the best video’s I’ve ever watched on TH-cam, the guy got some skills. Good job.
This man's attention to detail is outstanding. Watch the videos of him assembling the VW diesel that went into the red truck if you want to see how good he is. He is very impressive.
