Getting it out of the garage more now. Happy for spring!

Hi all, First post here on Mud but have been on the forum for a while always learning from everyone. Thought that this would be a good first post. Got a new set of wheels and tires mounted on the 60 today. They are Nomad Convoy 501s in 15x7 -10...

Took the old girl to her first car show, and pretty sure she was the Belle of the ball.

Finally fix the chronically leaking exhaust pipe flange gasket on exhaust manifold. No matter what I tried it always seemed to start leaking. Sometimes sooner some time later, some people might think this is extreme but I was over it. Yep , Man...

Closed on 20 acres so spent some time to cut in a road to get the HJ back there. Chainsaw decided to bitch out so I used a bunch of snatch blocks, my winch, and that Japanese deisel to just pull trees out of the way.

I took off my wheels and painted them black. They only came primed and they had faded a lot. Also took off the spare tire carrier and basket to grease the spindle they open on. (apparently my iphone takes too good/big of pics so having trouble...

Took advantage of an 82F mid-April day in Chicago to wash the truck.

Sunset valley Home Depot. 62 is mine.

Boring and lovely.

At COTA for MotoGP

Hot!!!

FJ60 stuff on a nice day

Took the old girl up to my buddies hunting cabin to hang out this weekend. She fits in right at home in the woods of Appalachia!

Drove this yesterday. HJ61 with 12HT, slush box, FF rear, etc. etc. Short drive, actually nothing more than launching and pulling out a boat :lol: , but enough to have me thinking about a 12HT swap for the 2F. I've ridden in it and even with...

I had a few failures trying to get the grip diameter to match my leather stretch on a 70mm piece, using the cheap Amazon leather, ripping the leather on my second attempt, so I went back to basics, a 65mm, 70mm and 75mm test piece, because I...

Before and after got wonky, but pretty damn nice work I thought. Hernandez Auto Upholstery on North Gessner Rd. HS

Well the facebook guy never materialized again but as luck would have it I stumbled upon a different deal. Needed to go up to New Mexico and as an aside got some parts for my 62 from a guy in Albuquerque. Casually mentioned my trailer hunt and he...

True that

it got hipsterfied cause y'all stopped going.

My cardiologist told me I wasn't allowed anymore :(

Looks awesome! I grew up in the bed of 70’s Toyota truck and was really looking for one of those for nostalgia and pairing sake. The gentleman did indeed have one but it was far more rough than either of these and was missing its tailgate. I’m...

Nice score Ian…we built a similar one a few years back on a 70’s Ford Courier bed… my son still uses it https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/building-a-trailer-from-a-truck-bed-have-a-couple-of-questions.930395/ And I built me another out of a...
