Kind of got side tracked the last 5 weeks. I ended up pickup up more FJ40 parts than I needed, now I am trying to clear up room to work. Good news is I picked up two smog exempt frames with titles. The great news is the tub arrived and just thew it on the body for a quick pic. Project feels real now.
I was able to separate the 1972 cowl from the tub reasonably cleanly. I used a combo of cut off wheel, sawzall and air chisel. There area some areas that are rusted through so I will probably cut out the rot and replace it with slightly thicker steel where the tub bolts to the cowl. I cant imagine the extra thickness will affect anything.
