Have you ever played with a toy truck and wished it was real?  Well, Steve Caskey of Colorado turned a dream of an all-out off-road race truck into reality and did it himself.  This project started as an 1986 Toyota Pickup and turned into a fully custom desert racer.  Only the grille and headlights let you know where this truck came from.

There is a supercharged Toyota Tacoma V6 that cannot be contained by the hood.  One of the goals was maximum suspension travel, and it’s a success as you can see from the amount of air this truck can handle without breaking a sweat.  This is one Toyota off-road racer to be reckoned with.
