I have replaced one roof by drilling out all of the spot welds and reaplacing it with a new used roof. I have to do another roof on a different cruiser in the future and I already have a clean doner roof. I plan on dooing the spot weld cutting again. I have thought for a long time that it would...

Did it to me once while I was in the middle of nowhere Utah doing 70MPH;p

I wonder if your local welding shop could rent you a plasma cutter for a couple of hours?

Colbalt drills and lots of them!!

Thanks for all of the Replys I will email Dan about the hoses and gaskets and water pump. The only reason that I want to install a inline filter is that I know that quite a bit of gunk made its way into the water passages while I was cleaning the tops of the pistons and scraping off the head gasket.

What about these for the lower fenders? https://rsp-secure.com/rarespares/default.asp?car_type=37&model=TOYOTA%20LANDCRUISER From a body shop class I spent a lot of time in, You need to body pick all of the rusty areas. It will show quite a few more thin areas than what the grinder shows. :o...
