Andrew's fetish with custom rides began like most of us. He built a couple other rides before one day laying down the duckies needed to bring his newest creation home. Andrew purchased his 1997 Toyota Tacoma back in 2001 and since it's purchase it has been burning up a hole in Andrews pocket.   The first stop for Andrews Taco was Ektensive in Houston, TX where the crew dismantled the Taco and began to transform it into a show-stopping ride. The crew started first by removing the factory suspension in favor of Firestone 2500 bags in the front. In order to correct the negative camber the upper control arms were then relocated up to accomplish this, and to save the ball joints. Out back another set of 2500 bas were added to a 2-link set up to supply the needed lift to get the Taco off the tarmac. To allow the rear end out of a 93 donor more room to travel a custom step notch and CRAZY tubular bridge was built by the Ektensive crew.

Once the Taco was firmly planted on the ground it was time to move to the next phase in the build up. The Taco was then delivered to Kevin Cox at Custom Concepts in OKC for some shinny stuff. Kevin shaved the hood squirters, 3rd brake light out of the roof and while he was working on the roof he decided to remove the Xcab hump that all Xcab Taco's have.
