    Body tub rebuild

    Is there any certain order that a body tub needs to be repaired. I’m replacing everything but the cowl assembly, the b pillars and the attached quarter panel top rails.

    Data plates

    I know this has probably been addressed before, but I’m not having luck finding a current answer. Does anybody currently make data plates? I’m just getting started in a restomod on my 79 FJ40. It was originally mustard yellow code 532. If I want to change the color is it possible to get a data...

    1979 body tub from China

    Hi everyone. I found a really good looking body tub from China through Alibaba.com, and through communication found out that it would cost 6400.00 picked up at port. Does this sound like a fair deal? Obviously, I would have to pony up having it shipped to my house. I guess the first question is...

    Rust reventative

    I've looked all over, but probably missed it. Has anybody used Cosmoline RP-342 Heavy Military undercoating to revent rust on their 40?

    Passenger floor boards on an FJ40

    Does anybody know what the differences on passenger floorboards were on the later FJ40s 1979 thru 1984? I knw it’s a pretty random question, but I’m replacing my floorboards and some of the options have a raised section that my stock one doesn’t have. I don’t want a new floorboar to create...

    I finally started my tear down on my 1/1979 FJ40.

    I finally got started on my 1/1979 FJ40. Got the spare, carrier and ambulance doors off. Man there’s a lot of rust. I think I’m just going to take it slow, one rust problem at a time. I’m afraid if I have it sandblasted, it will fall apart. Not much holding it together I don’t think.

    Rusty under body

    Does nobody know of anybody that makes body mounts for an FJ40 1/1979. Mine is way more rusty than I originally thought. What can I say, I complete noob at this and after buying sight unseen have discovered is worse than thought. I bought a butt load of body parts from CCOT to fix but after...

    My current build, 1979 FJ40

    Hi everybody, this is my current build. I bought this FJ40 back in November. I’ve got all the body parts to fix the massive trust issues. In retrospect, I probably should have gone with an Aqualu 3/4 tub. My original idea was to try to keep as much of the original tub as I could. Not much left...

    1979 FJ40 floorboards.

    Hey everyone. I'm new to this site. I just purchased. a 1979 FJ40 off eBay. The ad said not much rust and the photos looked pretty good. When I got it it has to be the rustiest vehicle I have ever owned. I've got most of the body parts from Cool Cruisers. Great to deal with. Adrian and Mary Beth...
