As I said earlier in the thread, the hood has a lot of damage. There was a massive crease on the passengers side; so much, that the bib over hung the hood by about 1.5". I tried banging out the crease but it was too far gone. I then cut the crease out with an angle grinder and cut a patch of 16ga steel for the hole.
Lines up much better now!!

Did more work in the engine bay. Pulled all the brake and clutch lines, reservoirs, fans, master cylinders, booster, and brackets. I also removed the pedals, brackets, hardware, and cables.
Now that the hood lines up well, I can start pulling fenders, bib, aprons, etc.

Got a huge score today from another member.
24 lbs of freshly cadmium plated metric JIS hardware from a previous FJ40 project that never came to fruition. Probably close to 2000 nuts, bolts, screws, studs, and various other pieces.

Lots of parts have been blasted and are ready for Cadmium plating (decided to go with CAD instead of zinc).

New 16 CFM Quincy air compressor.
Overkill, but I'll never have to buy an air compressor again.
