Don't forget the radius arms under the axle ;) it's looking great!

I worked on the hood a bit and added an axle, tires and a few other accents. That's it for today...and probably the week. Feel free to let me know what needs to be tweaked.

Don’t forget the grab handles on the A pillars. Otherwise, it looks good for stock.
Edit: if you do that, you might as well add steering wheel and seats… Lol

Thanks! I haven’t been adding the interior details to the designs though I am open to doing that with this one. I may also make one that has @Roostre ’s ARB bumper and winch since that seems to be popular.

Would be great like Lumbee’s (looks way better than mine) with ARB - snorkel and a roof rack/lights and a bit of a lift (heritage grille) . All so common on 80’s and make them look beefy.
I would buy one …

Well in that case here is mine with an ARB + 12K winch with wire rope and roller fairlead, if you need more details. Also not stock grill and Prinsu roof rack.

I like how you mounted your control box. Do you put a tow bar on your bumper?
Yes. I had a local welding shop modify the tow points and build a removable tow bar. So the ARB is not strictly stock. Your attention to detail is phenomenal! The control box is also mounted to the upright bracket on the ARB. Good catch!

My attention to detail can be a fault at times. I spent 30 years drawing my FJ40 before folks finally convinced me to stop the chaos and put a design on a shirt, which was never my intention with the drawings. I was really just dreaming about how I wanted to build it. Most of the details that I spent months ironing out were eventually deleted as they were too busy for a shirt.

There is a little context for why I get cautious with adding grab handles and steering wheels. The next thing that I know, I am using an illustrated thread to stitch the leather together on the steering wheel. Ha!
 
How about a twin headlight truck? Can get a decent pic tomorrow

I want to clarify that I can only give away one free shirt, and that is going to @bhsdriller for providing a clean base Cruiser. I have to sell a few shirts to make a profit. Ha.

Keep the pictures coming as you all are giving me some great ideas though don’t worry about getting the perfect angles. From here on out I am drawing freehand.

Let’s be real, I’ve been drawing freehand the moment that I tried to stitch together the leather cover for the steering wheel.
