Builds Another FJ68 Build

[megolfer]

Also a lot of weight still to go on it

 

[megolfer]

Working on steering lines and mounting reservoir

 

[megolfer]

Got the radiator and condenser on

 

[megolfer]

Started pulling the dash to have the heater core checked and put in new evaporator core. This isbthe scariest part for me. Tine of bolts. Taking lots of pics.

That's a huge undertaking.. it's looking good

 

[megolfer]

Ac evaporator core is pretty dirty. Have a new denso unit. Heater core looks pretty good.

Anyone have suggestions where to get the foam for around the heater core and all the ducts

 

[megolfer]

Slow progress, but it takes time to chase all the unwanted wires. About 95% done cutting down the factory wiring harness. Then floor will be prepped and lizzard skin will be applied and then sound deadening.

Looks good, that wiring is a lot of work.
the a/c foam I use is a foam insulation tape that's 1/8" x 2" x 30 ft. I got it from an a/c supply shop.

Lizzard skin is down. First coat was primer, then sound control and ceramic insulation. I will do a paint coat on top of that.

 

[megolfer]

Sound control

 

[megolfer]

Ceramic insulator

 

[megolfer]

Also got the brake booster and master cylinder in

Next up is the killz mat. Then start putting the dash back together.

 

[megolfer]

Killmat is installed. Time to start putting the interior back together. Just waiting for the heater core to come back from the shop.

Lizard skin under the kilmat! Well done sir. you completed the idea i've been rolling around in my head.

Can I ask how much lizard skin you used and how much mat did you order?

 

[megolfer]

I used 2 gallons of sound deadening and 2 gallons of ceramic heat. I was able to do 2 coats of the sound deadening and only one coat of the ceramic heat. It will be fine since there is lizard skin under the body also. I used 2 packs of the 36sq ft packs. Has no extra. Still planning on doing the doors.

 

[megolfer]

All new foam.

 

[megolfer]

Dash going back in.

 

[megolfer]

Guages are about half way wired
