Impressive Jimmy, I have found my paint body guy.

Man, I want to make another trip down as well. Always a good time.

I have a starter like that from a BJ40 shoot me a PM

I would love this for my 60. Did I miss a price?

I'm trying to find a Tuffy 023-03 center console for my FJ40. The gray one seems to be out of stock at the moment. If anyone has one available, I would love to buy it.

Any due diligence on your part researching this should yield the same conclusion.

Worst idea I have seen on mud in a while.

Not quite done with the whole heater refurb but, I did reinstall the box to clear some workspace on my tool box. These heater pipes were looking a little ragged, so I cleaned them in my solution and refinished the insulation with heat shrink. I loaded up the car seats this afternoon and...
