So, my first love, pre-Subaru, is Toyota 4x4's.
I started with an 84 Short bed at age 15, it was stolen just after my 19th Birthday. It was pretty much stock the entire time I had it, other than paint. Here she is in her full High school kid owned glory.

Had my first Subaru, an 86 GL wagon for a while before trading it for another truck, since i was beating the crap out of the poor sube.
Started with this 81 Long Bed:

It finally ended up like this:

Electrical system was super hack in that truck so I moved the parts over to this 80 Short bed:

Thought I wanted to move onto bigger and better so traded that truck for a Chevy half ton. Whoops, Then my buddy ended up with a 4runner he didn't really want and offered it to me for a smoking deal.
This is the only picture I have of it before it REALLY went under the knife, but after I converted it to round, H4 type headlights.
