84 FJ60 Resto,

[SKINNER]

That is gonna be one smoking golf cart!

2x I want to do the same to a smart car.



What color are you painting the 60?

I'll have to start a thread and post pics/progress/video of the cart. I'll try and put something together tonight when I get home.

Oh yeah, painting the FJ factory white.

Let me know what you guys think.

wow!
...my back and arms hurt, just reading the entire thread over the past few hours...

again, awsome shop x27, great craftsmanship and dedication x7, and i hope you can bring yourself to drive this thing after all of the days worth of work you have into it.

i am now glued to your thread, like everyone else...

carry on, but maybe bust the cruiser up a notch above the golf cart (gasp!).

Hey everybody!! Been a while. Figured I should drop in and post an update.

I ended up selling the FJ60.


















Just Kidding! That turd is still sitting in the shop. . . since my last post I have continued working 60+ hours per week at work, continued chipping away at the golf cart, done a number of repair/fab jobs, and we had our first baby!

My wife gave birth to a beautiful 6lb 10ounce baby girl! So, at least I feel like I have a good reason for not updating the thread . Honestly, I haven't really touched the 60 (I did build an adjustable body cart for painting, though. . .I'll have to post pics).

Sorry for going underground for so long!

Congrats on the baby princess!
Please do ask wifey for a permit to work on the Cruiser so you can post more pics of it. There are many people waiting...
Yeah and pics of the newborn are welcome, too.

Ahhh, so I'm not the only one who's life as a king is over with ( )! Same deal come December praying all goes well.

*I'll grant you pardon on your previous post not having pics and leave it to someone else to harass you for now.
