Thanks @knuckle47 , I'm pretty excited about it. I think I may do a combination of radiant heaters, suspended from trusses, and a wood burning stove of some sort. I never thought to do a dehumidifier but may run one of those as well to keep moisture down.
Been following along on this for a while, very well thought out. I grew up just south of Tulsa and I'm now in Stillwater. Just had my small pole barn built and now I need to plan out my office/gym/shop space and how I'm going to heat it.
I would lean towards the hood hinge to keep the lights closer to the windshield. I’m pumped you’re making these, I’ve been hoping someone would make these for a while!
I have an 87 FJ60, if you need someone else with a newer one I'd be willing to take pics and do a write up. If not, I look forward to eventually buying one of these. They look Awesome!
