NICE...real nice. I am going to need a half tub next year. There is enough rust to warrant that plus the po cut out the wheelwells for larger tires. All this= new half tub. Keep us informed.
1/2, 3/4 tub from Eshan, anyone interested?

Are you sure? I have an early tub but its 18G. 16 is too heavy.

Yes, those are the gauges of steel for the body we have here, but I can only be sure of what was shipped to North America.
Maybe Toyota shipped thinner steel to drier climates? Anyone know?
Weed hopper...Where in CT are you?

My '71 parts truck's tub is also out of 16 gauge not 18 gauge.

That would make a sweet body for a matching FJ40 "jeep trailer". All it needs is a front panel and a tailgate or the dutch doors.
Speaking of tailgates and dutch doors, any plans for putting these into production?
Those floor panels look great. I welded in CCOT panels and would have replaced the whole floor if I could have gotten it in one peice like that.

Will assemble the pieces together in a few days. Comments are welcome. I am trying to figure out what the demand is. 3/4 tubs? 1/2 tubs of the pieces seperately?

Ehsan,
I saw a crew cab FJ45 in Bakersfield a couple years ago. I think it came out of South America (Banderante?). It was "restored" by TLC and worth more than my house. Any chance building me one of those cabs? Just thought I'd ask since everyone is airing out their wish lists.

Yes. Very much possible. I posted a picture of a double cabin, 4 door 45 pickup a couple of weeks ago somewhere here or on Pirate..

I will need a half tub next summer, so count that as one... as I said before, very nice work

Ready to buy. All about cost and shipping.

Individual parts will be for sale also. As for the time.. I am going to have these made in advance and keep them in stock. As soon as I have 10 odd tubs made, I will put them up for sale and as soon as the group is finalized, would send it in via ship. So manufacturing time will not matter in these.
I have been contemplating on making enough stuff to fill in a 20 footer and then bring it with myself to the US and sell it there direct so I can meet you all also. (just a thought)
