JDM Truck - Toyota Tacoma on Watanabe Wheels

This  JDM Truck, a first generation Toyota Tacoma in Japan, is on slammed in a set of Watanabe Wheels. Being this low, this Toyota Tacoma looks to be bagged. The Watanabe wheels tuck really deep in to the wheel wells, giving this truck a low stance.  Behind the front grill appears to sit a large intercooler so it’s probably safe to assume this truck is Turbo. - JDM Truck: JDM Toyota Tacoma on Watanabe Wheels

 

Watanabe Falcon Steering Wheel

Watanabe parts are already hard to get… Getting a Watanabe Falcon steering wheel is a lot harder. Try finding somone selling one right now, chances are slim. The wheel comes in two versions; 3 spoke and 4 spoke. One is a Falcon Type I and the other is Falcon Type II, I really don’t know which one is which. The steering wheel features a unique horn with the Watanabe Falcon logo. This is a piece I wish I could add to my collection.
