For those of you that live in the bay area and have ever driven down 19th avenue in San Francisco; Here is the FJ40 that didnt move for YEARS. I thought it would be my first 40 some day....... but someone else got it first. It showed up at the shop the other day. We have our work cut out for us.......
so sometimes steam cleaning is awesome cause you get to really clean up the engine. But other times its not great cause it reveals wear and problems that you really want to fix and they nag at you. I revealed an issue that needs to be addressed following the swap.
Once the first layer of gunk melted off, the oil pan looked like someone had duct taped the whole thing. Turns out someone slathered the whole thing in silicon sealant, and smoothed it out to make it look like the original oil pan. Luckily it doesnt leak, and the patch looks like its in good shape. Regardless, Im not about to have a beautiful 12HT and engine bay with a rotted oil pan.
So if anyone has an extra one kicking around or knows where I should look for a new one, let me know!
Does the 12H-T share an oil pan with the 2H or the 2F?
Thats one pretty engine! Hurry up and install that thang.
Wow, that motor cleaned up nice.

Yeah, the nick will grow out when you stop thinking, and start cruising.
Some of my greatest ideas took shape behind the wheel of my (now burnt) sixty.
It was a hj 60 with a volvo turbo, iveco ic and supposed to have bmw seats.
Strange mix, but nice.
It ended up being named after my grandfather.
Nice work, looking forward to seeing that competed bay in blue, red and that shiny 12ht.
Care to explain the grease masking a bit more? How did you clean grease of the details of the font?
