got word from my landcruiser shop that my 1hdt is reinstalled from a rebuild and running well,h55 also rebuilt and shifting quietly and smoothly!!🎉🎊🎉🎊
he just has some clean up and a few more shake down runs to do to make sure everything is...
We made some real progress on the 60 Series this week, and for once, there were no nasty surprises lurking under the rust. After a lot of measuring, checking, and re-checking, I finally got the new c-channels fitted in the back — both on the left...
Got around to finally installing my prototype boards today. They all work - here is a proof of life video of the prototype (not in its casing or anything). This is my daily driver so I'll be testing them over the next couple weeks.
For anyone...

This time we moved on to the right rocker panel. What started off looking like just a small hole quickly turned...
Spent 8 hours yesterday doing paint correction followed by a thorough wax job, then wheel polish and interior detailing. Amazing that original paint is able to hold up this well! We took her into Houston to our favorite microbrewery this...

All of them should have cups, some are different sizes. I'm in the process of replacing some of mine that were damaged or rusty. Matt @cruisermatt is helping me get them sorted with some from a 70 series I believe.
I did roughly 2.5 thousand miles from central Texas, through NM and into southern Colorado and back with my boy. Landed one of my favorite pictures.
Truck did great, glad I put in BMW seats.
PCBs arrived today. Waiting on some parts. The total board size is about the same area as a single one of the relays that's flopping around loose in my passenger door.
