Last summer dad picked up this relatively rust free cruiser off of craigslist with no title and no drivetrain. After some paper work and a few months of waiting, he received the bonded title. With the title in hand, we started the parts buying spree by sourcing a 1HZ and H55 from @joekatana. Next, I contacted Wayne @crushers about his 1HZ engine mounts and found out that he sells a kit for this conversion. I will go into more detail on the kit as it is installed. Getting the engine in is the first thing on the list, but the plan is to build a mechanically sound daily driver, while keeping the patina of the body. The major items we have lined out are:
Swap in the BJ73 axles we have sitting in the barn
FZJ80 steering box
Completely redo wiring
Powdercoat frame
2" Lift and 33" tires
Trollhole soft top
