Hung out with a friend, Chad the builder of the famous SR-drift 620 king cab.
Had an extra fender that he needed to replace one of his war torn fenders so we met for some coffee and Japanese food. Talked for a good hour or so about a bunch of dumb, life stuff. I wanted to avoid asking questions about the truck, because I know he gets a lot of questions, and I don't want to be one of those dicks that goes on and on about it :poke: Still managed to get some cool secrets out of him though :thumbup:
Thought you guys might enjoy some pics.
BTW, yes he has no bed on. Probably due to the fact that he has a radiator at the back, and the bed off to access the fuel pumps he's been having issues with. Remember, this is a race truck.
Back on topic, the trucks cool as hell. Everything is 100% well done and home brewed awesomeness. A 620 on an S14 sub frame with Z32 brakes, and ALL the goodies. Oh and did I mention it's RHD?

This is where the truck gets unusually cool. It's got it's very own mascot. Petey the drift pigeon! A good luck charm of sorts. Be sure to like him on Facebook!

After a few hours, we headed out, but not before Chad stuffed the fender he came for in the passenger (usually what we call the driver) seat and cuddled into the cage next to it.
Funniest part of the day.
