PM Coming.

This is such an awesome rig, I really enjoyed reading and seeing it come together. You've made huge progress in such a short time!

Big update! I finally made the leap of pulling the tub off the frame today. It came off very easily, after I disconnected the brake booster from the firewall and undid the body mount bolts. Before: During: After: I put the body up on stands in the garage for easy 360 degree access to all...

Onward crawls the project! The day after Christmas, I was finally able to pull the front clip. With the engine swap and all sorts of messy wiring this was quite a job, but I feel really good about pulling the tub off soon. Its also super easy to access things around the engine (duh). Today...

I'd suggest against the OEM seats, IMO its not worth what you'd pay for a pretty uncomfortable ride. The white rims look fantastic btw!

It's been a lot of fun seeing this come together. I also saw your Sammy on instagram, either ZuksofArizona or Samurai.Szn reposted it. Let me know if you go the turbo diesel route eventually- that's something I've had my eye on!

Never as much as I'd like - since the shutdown ended its been pretty non-stop catch-up at work. But I did get the chance to swing by the garage and pull the heater. I think I'm just about good to go to pull the body off, once I pull the front clip too and remove the steering column. I also...

Sorry to hear about the electrical issues- I wish I could give some insight there, but I got nothing. I would not be surprised if a ground has gone bad if you've had a ton of rain.

With the Model A gone, I moved the Suzuki into the vacant space so my mom can have her garage bay back. Here's my setup: I'm removing/disconnection some things to try and pull the front clip when I'm back here next weekend. With the shutdown ended I have a lot less time to work on the car...

I'll have to check it out! My girlfriend and I were thinking of planning a trip up there sometime next year. I highly recommend you get one eventually if you can find one. Some of my earliest memories were going to car shows in that Model A with my mom, and hanging out with the club...

Looks great! Is this your daily now? I saw the Isuzu went gooey kablooey...

I have a bit of a different update, I hope this is appropriate for my Suzuki build thread. The roll cage arrived, and I welded the frame I made to the tailgate section. The folded-up original body panel is all sealed up now, and the frame nests in there nicely I think. More notably, my uncle...

It looks great with the windshield back on, just in time for colder weather. Will you stick with the black wheels or paint them? I think white would look really nice.

While I wait for the roll cage I'm working on replacing the rear wheel wells and floor. I welded up this little frame to give the steel some added support, since the original had corrugations. This is 1 x 1 x .083" steel square tubing, which I also gave a few coats of primer. I'm proud of how...

I'm glad you're happy with it! What kind of bedliner did you use?
