Time to put it together.

The wife wanted to help. So I let her. She is better at this tedious stuff anyway.

 

[Dudleyfj40]

Badges, you can't forget the badges. Thanks to Overton for sending me measurements on this stuff back here.

Then @overton helped me out with the build again.

I fabbed a newer heater to work with the pull for the cowl vent.

As you guys see this turned out pretty nice. Well, too nice for me. I have put it up for sell.

Saturday it made it's first journey with its new owner to St Louis Mo. He said it drove like a dream!

Gonna miss that old girl!

 

[LS1FJ40]

We are supposed to bring Land Cruisers to Iowa, not send them away!

Congrats on the sale! I take it you are starting another...

I want a 40 so bad.

 

[Dudleyfj40]

I'm thinking PIGGY Oink Oink. LOL

 

[LS1FJ40]

Damn, A piggy would be sweet! I miss my 55. My 15 year old son wants a 55 so bad. There was an add on CraigsList with a 55 for sale in CR. I about peed myself. Called. Left message. Got a text back. Scammer.
