So I'm looking at purchasing my first TLC. An FJ60 which seems to be a decent deal. No experience working on vehicles this age, rust/frame/corrosion/bodywork issues, just my '12 Tacoma and '05 BMW, so any advice would be really appreciated! Should be able to do or learn to do most of the big ticket items this car needs except for, bodywork, transmission & engine rebuild (I know those are the main big ticket items haha) but the frame and undercarriage on this one look good enough that it won't be needed. Do you guys agree? I'm not against spending the money to have the frame removed, sandblasted, and painted. Any idea on costs? I know there aren't many photos and angles aren't the best, sorry for that.
No rust present on the truck itself except for minor bubbles on the rear quarter panel, so bodywork shouldn't be needed yet.
