    That looks fantastic! I'd really like to see your 40 in person, but I'd also like to talk to you about Proffitt's. Thinking about doing a vehicle through them and wanted to hear about your experience. I'm a couple years out so i just want to get in the queue at this point. Look forward to seeing...

    Builds My Tucson 40's

    I have my 40 set up just like that. No doors or top - just me and the wife and the wind. If i need something for a longer trip or the highway we can take the 80. Topless 40s are awesome.

    Perfectly normal buying process….right?

    Yeah, Martin seemed like a good dude. I was glad to pick up the 80. I think we'll have some fun with it.

    Cool rig and I love the trailer. I’d buy a trailer like that today. No wait….I’m still out of storage space.

    The 40 looks way better (IMO) without the bestop on. The fabric top makes it look like a j**p.

    Hey guys. I’ve been able to meet some of you at the last couple TAC events. Wanted to share some updates on our Land Cruisers. I've been a Toyota guy for a while. I bought a 2015 Tundra 3-4 years ago and started building it into a hunting/overlanding rig. I think it works well for its intended...

    Got it. One of the docs at College Park Family Care (offices all over JoCo) has been driving a white 80 since new.

    FJ80 in KC

    Those are great looking rigs! Maybe I am missing it, but i looked and didn't see any build info where you talked about what you did to your rigs. For example, did you just hand polish the clear coat? Any before/after pics? Did you consider going the dupli-color route? Where are you in KS? We...

    So if your door switch was inoperable, the driver switch still worked, correct? Since neither of mine work I’m thinking it’s the motor and not the switch. Does that sound right?

    FJ80 in KC

    Slightly more complicated issue than I expected, but should have assumed, given the original clues. Took the door apart today expecting to try the 2x4 method and here us what I found. 1. The frame that goes on the bottom of the window was laying on the bottom interior of the door. That’s what...

    Some additional pics from this morning. Like I said, I’m sure it’s a factory color scheme, but one I can’t say I’ve seen before. I like the tan and dark brown, especially with the interior. Just a unique looking rig.
