Bringing New Meaning To The Word 'Original'

Jamie Wood might not be a name that rings a bell in the mini truckin’ community, but he has long since been in the game, and it just so happens that Jamie bought THIS very Toyota Tacoma brand new back in 1996.

With big plans and dreams that had to take a back seat to the daily grind of life, Jamie used his Tacoma for daily work duties for the better part of three years before he finally said enough is enough and started cutting.

In his home garage with the help of a few close friends, they cut up Jamie’s Taco and juiced and bodied it to scratch that mini-truckin’itch that had been brewing within for years. Unfortunately, life just kept hitting Jamie with not just jabs but nonstop left and right hooks forcing his dreams of the draggin’ body with his boys to take a back seat time and time again. Not one to give up the dream just yet, the truck had to go to storage for a while, but it wouldn’t fit in the unit. Being true OG mini-truckers, Jamie and his buddies proceeded to cut the back half off right there at the storage unit and put it on casters so they could fit the truck in storage and close the door all the way. When Jamie pulled that storage unit door down and put his lock in place, he knew this wasn’t the end, his day would come.
