A little picking away a day.... Juan the Lab wasn't helping too much...

Pickin away at the 40..... Everything has been going to sand blasting and primer -Still a ONE owner 1970 FJ40. So awesome.... This 50 year old FJ will have another 50 years in the same family.... How neat is that? From the sands of the Moad to beaches in California.... And the amount of original surviving details are amazing...

One of our 2 core electric motors for the eGT313 Program.... This 300ft/lb PM motor and controller are compact and powerful and will feel like 300HP. This one will drive a trans rated for the torque like a H55.... and we have another motor that will be our direct drive motor through the single speed reduction gearbox with similar power... Either way 400v system! 2.0 is really going to be spot on.....

Hangin the laundry out to dry after sand blasting and priming.... Kinda fun to have a neat marquee build project once and a while

Put em' on a Made in the USA T-Shirt for a fair price (because **** China) and I'd be in for a couple. Maybe a smaller 3D scan image on the front, top-left where a pocket would be and a large 3D scan image on the back. They could even toss their company logo on there somewhere. Hopefully someone is listening

Would love to see pics after SB but before body work, primer or paint. I will be at this stage very soon hopefully.

Another nice build

 

[TremecElectricGT]

The FJ60-2 project had some mock-up fitment time this week

 

[TremecElectricGT]

Tub in the sand blasting room... Nice to have a fresh restart after 50 years....

 

[TremecElectricGT]

Blasting guys are moving too fast ... 50 year old tub looks great.... A little rust repair and hole elimination and we are on the upswing

 

[TremecElectricGT]

Some neat imagery of the eGT413 pre-production unit #1 (albiet this one is landing in a Bronco).... Same system will be going into the 60.... WIll be getting the final "wire up" with installation of the AEM VCU...
