So I take Ornch to Texas, truck breaks down close to Steve at Northwest, he has to take trailer and Ornch to his shop, while I fly home. Fly back 10 days later for truck and trailer. Tell Steve , Ornch in back burner while Moseley Motor installed...
Bought this pig in Northern Ca, brought home, wife says, you have Steve the Pig, can I have this one? I’m like sure., then she says how long to fix it up? I just look at her.
So it sits in garage, cat had kittens on floorboards, wife says what...
I think that's what the date code says.
I got the Pig in 1986 and probably rebuilt the carb right away. That was before 'Mud and even the LCML. I think I rebuilt the carb every year for the first 14 years. Then I sent it to Jim C. when I rebuilt...
I'm waiting for a few color samples from Monstaliner. As soon as I can confirm the color I'll order up a gallon and wait for a warm day..
I'll post up addl pics. Ive been back and forth on what to use. I found out none of the 2 part epoxy...
Bar none, the greatest indicator of “Pig Value”is body condition. Engine/drivetrain modifications or changes, or any other mechanical modifications pale (or are even nothing) in comparison to the value of the body being absent of visible rust.
How do you know what the majority is? From what I see on MUD, most are well done mods and would bring far more money and enjoyment out of them than a stock wagon. Look on Bring A Trailer and tell me how many truly stock Cruisers go through it...
Thanks Tony! We are hoping to be able to come (pending my work schedule).
Will there be a PMC email announcement when there's more info from MC folks on a fixed time schedule for the Celebration of Life for Marlin?
Back in 2017 at FJ Summit...
Zero difference. Just went out and pulled these. I was in the process of recreating these but might put a hold on my makeshift production and wait for yours @Racer65
Production Nov. 77’
My apologies for the crude measuring device I can’t find...
Apologies that it took so long. I pulled the driver's side front (not sure how easy it will be to get back in!) from my '77 (Oct 1976) pig. I have every reason to believe that these are the original inside felts. Overall length is 680mm...
Fantastic. Any chance you are going to reproduce the windshield and cargo window gaskets with trim option?
I can measure my '77 for you assuming it can be measured without pulling it out of the door.
I'm in the process of making reproduction inner window felts. Can someone help me to measure the length of the inner window felt for the following year ranges? Please measure in mm.
'73 and earlier
'74 and later
I have a couple of NOS samples...
I'd like to mention something here, while you have the paint gun out and might help others make a decision. I know stock paint jobs do not have the door jams painted body color (where the green comes across the doors), but you sure can see the...
A couple more from today, I was going to have this done yesterday, but I just got my first Grandchild yesterday so that took precedence. Thanks for all the good words.
