restomod

Hey Fellas, I've got a duesy for ya this time. We are building a very cool truck this year as a part of our Signature line-up. This time we are grafting our efforts that went into our SEMA 2017 build into an even more vintage platform. A 1964 FJ45 LV. That's coming out....might save...

I have a gen 1 Tundra that is in excellent shape. I've always considered an older Cruiser but honestly I want the power and modern amenities with the classic body. Is this just a terrible idea? If you think it's an interesting idea any thoughts on which style / year you would consider...your...

I have been looking and trying to find the "perfect truck". Turns out there a lot of things that could be perfect. What is most important to me is the condition and have to say I like the idea of a built truck. However great body and restored or new/replaced undercarriage, drivetrain is all...

Hey all, Thought I'd post some photos and a little history on my 83 bj42 build. This truck showed up in my life in a weird way, but it was an opportunity to build my dream truck so I went for it. Sold my nice daily and bought a beater to provide some cash to float the rest of the build...

Has anyone achieved some (relatively) smooth aftermarket updates? For example, finding electric window regulators that just happen to fit perfectly or using a certain aftermarket wiper motor for replacements? Obviously original parts are hard to find but I'm thinking there has to be enough mods...

A rare one for export cruisers since our business is usually full frame nuts and bolt restoration to original spec. This time we have something different for the trail lovers, this FJ45 has been fully restored and brought to the digital era. We are giving this cruiser a warm welcome to our for...

Well, I finally did it. I took the plunge after over a year of agonizing and planning and searching. Last weekend I was kicking around on eBay, and found the OBO ad. The truck was close by, so I sent the seller an offer, pending an inspection. He accepted and my dad and I hopped in a car to go...

OK, here goes the build thread of my 1969 FJ40 restomod! Like most people, I’ve been lurking on Mud for a while, but I’ve decided it’s about time I start contributing. By no means am I an expert in anything, just a self-taught average Joe with a welder and an angle grinder. I honestly didn’t...

So some may have followed my HJ45 build over the last few years. Link here Twistys Aussie HJ45 Buildup/Resto I was stoked with how the build turned out, but over that time we have had two kids, so it just isn't practical for us. I had always dreamt of owning a FJ45V, so we decided to try and...

I recently sold my OM617 powered FJ55 and picked up a 1977 FJ40 from a friend of a friend. My wife was so elated that I sold the pig that she let me buy a 40! Anyway, the 40 is a two owner Texas vehicle with hardly any rust on the tub. The PO had started taking it apart for a full on frame-off...

Well, I'm at a crossroads. Here is my situation and I would like to get some other voices to join the ones in my head (as well as ones named Robbie, Cruiserdrew, Steve, etc.). Head is off, block is what it is (in very good shape for a 260k bottom end), head going to machine shop Monday for a...

Project Beach Cruiser | The 1971 FJ40 Patina RestoMod I have always enjoyed driving from my house in Irvine down to Newport Beach for Saturday morning coffee. I usually drive my old '86 Toyota, but it doesn't seem to fit. I want a convertible classic. Since I'm a huge Toyota guy, the only...
