Builds 76 Fj40 Face Lift

This Mule 2.0 is going to be awfully nice. Some of us that still reside in the land of rock chips and rust management want to know if the Mule will ever see gravel and mud again or is it destined for the Barbie Garage and a weekly appointment with a dust mop and tire shine. This makeover is sparing no expense. Well done.

Mule 2.0 will still perform all duties assigned.

If you read back in the beginning of this meandering thread, paint is about seven years in the making. Things went a little sideways a few years back. I’m just now getting to the point where I’m “caught up” enough to do it justice. It truly is just a makeover. It isn't a nut and bolt resto. Just enough lipstick on the mule to squeeze a spot in the 3rd stall.…

Some of the “Stanard and Non-Standard” parts for Mule 2.0 made their way to the MOV over the weekend.

This one is no longer “rare”. City Racer is reproducing a very nice copy that’s well within the budget of mere mortal men.

Probably add an LED for ambiance..

Pretty sure it only takes one...

and I don't think the size of it matters!

Assasin….

Hey Matt- Thanks for double checking w/me last PM. I’ll ping the boys at the “lab” and see if there’s any surprises in the “YOTAVERSE”. Happy to contribute.

Mule 2.0 is waking up. Epoxy is going down. RCLC is kicking it.

120 grit, some of the welds got attention, AL metal cleaner and into epoxy. Shouldn’t have to worry about adhesion.

RCLC is kicking it.

Understatement if I ever read one! Impressive. Got me thinking my long-term plans for my rig.

Thanks for the posts/updates
