Congrats on the purchase!
I'd have a look at it... I wouldn't put myself in the same league as @OTRAMM. But I do have 22 years experience with my 40, a DIY frame off resto that still looks decent, and several, some what complicated, modifications under my belt that should qualify me to give you a solid assessment of the current condition of your Cruiser and to provide advice on options for the way forward.

Stumpalama-

Much appreciated and yes, sounds like you're very well versed! Will shoot you a PM.

Thanks

Also join the club and come out to our next meeting in a few weeks. Nice 40 and certainly the best color!

Love Mustard - thanks!

They need an "eye roll" reaction emoji.

I'm talking about within the "like" button selection. That finding the emoji in the smilie face drop down is too time consuming

Works great for me!

@76FJ40 who is this mythical alchemist?

Jimmy at Mountain Run Machine if he's still around.

 

[Jakes40]

No input here mine are schedule 40.

 

[OTRAMM]

I'm pretty sure Mountain Run Machine is no more. If you don't need it balanced I can do it in the lathe at the shop.

I may do just that, then take it to a shop for a balance at a later date.

Looking for a good shop to replace some vinyl racing stripes on a buddies charger. Any ideas between Winchester and Fairfax?

If you need radiator or heater core repairs Richards in winchester on S Valley ave is a good old school radiator shop.
Fixed the pin hole in my rear heater in about 10 minutes.
Also says the rear heater core on a 40 land cruiser is almost an exact match for a 1950-1956 Chevrolet sedan heater core.

I’ll second that he is a good guy to deal with I’ve used him a couple of times.

He said he remembered you because he gave you grief about having a Toyota and not a heep.

Yes he did. I think I told him not everyone can own a Legend. He just laughed.

Anyone know of a good car audio shop in the Fairfax/Springfield area? Or know of someone who does this kind of work on the side?
