Had a little fun this morning. I decided a few weeks ago to start pulling out the MISCELLANEOUS boxes tucked into every corner of the shop. About once a year for the 27 years I had a front counter in the shop I would predictably get annoyed...

The weather here has been way hot and humid to be comfortable out so I had not kept up with things BUT… the last 2 days have been quite amazing with very low humidity. I took the 40 out to run a few errands pick up some gas and do some grocery...

Got started reassembling the doors. New felts and channel runs in. Laid down some dynamat for sound deadning. Got the exterior door handle in. I like the contrast with the black handles. The hinges are black as well. Waiting on a few other...

More fun with the magic eraser This really confirms that the correct color name for the 1969 is Pluto Beige.

Freshened up my rear axle with new wheel bearings, seals, and paint so I could install a rear disc brake kit.

Picked up more body parts this morning. Had a minor issue to be addressed post paint for the tub so will be a few days before I can pick it up. Happy with how the raptor liner turned out on the tranny & gas tank cover (also on underside of...

Rain? Send some our way, these fires are handing us our asses. Got the T case sealed up and reinstalled. Between the transmission jack and the 1 1/4” pipe to hold the transfer gear and spacer in place it slid right on. Putting the parking...

Mirrors worked great for what they are. A little vibration at idle but no more than the windshield mounted rear view. Met some new locals too!

Found some Chevy Cobolt seats. Had them reupholstered, rails modified and installed. Wow, what a transition! I can slide back further, recline, sit higher for better visibility and they really update the interior. Next I need to get a center...

Great timing on your post of the Tuffy console. I just put my Tuffy back in the '63 FJ40 after installing '71 OEM seats. As you might guess, the Tuffy console was too tall to be useful on the factory bench so I started by sawing 4" off the bottom...

Well as things go. I went to change my t-case and trans fluid to improve shifting a little turned into, I might as well fix that e-brake that does not work too. Waiting on parts but I resealed the output shaft of the t-case, new gasket and new...

Closed course professional driver first test of the LS 5.3 swap and 4 speed. I don't think a 5 speed was needed lol. Driveline definitely had more to go (my balls maybe not so much) I had the speedo buried at 100 for fun for a few seconds but...

A little short cut I learned last time I had the TCase off was to use a piece of old bicycle pump tube (1 1/4” diameter) to hold the transfer gear and spacer in place as you slide it onto the shaft. As it goes on it pushes the tube out the back...
