All hail unibody-drop! Even if you have talked shiz up until this point you must bow your head, and give props to this. Body drops are hard enough when you can take the body off of the frame. NICE WORK! These are true mods I wish I had the bawls to do on my box, but shaved doors are'nt bolt on so I aint dikin' widit. Not on a new car anyway.

Its on a toyota mini truck frame then the rear end has a full custom subframe on it. Then full air ride definately the most insane and nicest box I have ever seen.

ok, i call BS.
I too saw it at SEMA. There was no mini truck frame swap. The custom paint was actually vinyl. It had a stock xB motor, but nothing was hooked up to it.

I would love to see this thing finished, but when I saw it, it was rough.

dude it's no longer a scion at all. i do like the idea of the xB body on a rwd platform. hmm..... wanna see pics. too bad it's something that will pretty much be impossible for most everyone to do. oh well.

Ok my friend built this box. The frame is off of a old school toyota mini truck frame. The rear section is custom rear subframe. The car was not complete there is a toyota turbo nitrous motor for the car. As for the graphics yes the car was sprayed black and the owner of the car drew up the sticker graphics. The rims on the vehicle are thanks to Boyd Coddington for those ONE off rims.

Wow is all that I can say. That thing is amazing. The only thing that is missing are some different taillights and an exhaust. Those wheels are some of the sickest that I have seen and along with that drop give that car a sick look. Where are the interior pics?
