Build My Willie (Toyota Land Cruiser HJ-61 thorough build)

[odingski]

A real neat car cover.

Is that an OEM cloth? And what's the circle knob on the side of the headrest?

I am not so sure if it is OEM cloth. But I have a complete set of used seat cover, wall and door sidings. The knob on the side of the headrest is an adjuster that moves the headrest forward and back.

Left rear door panel installed.

Door panels turned out great. Nice and clean.

I am still going to install the inner door handles and thinking of placing silver strips on the lower side of the panel. An iron on reflective tape.

The rest of the side panels are almost done. I decided to apply rubberized coat to the interior walls for a neat look even on the inside.

Visited the upholstery shop to check on the progress. Might be done within the week.

Finally...

I decided to do a repaint over the first job I did. The color did not really match up with what I planned.

From the back portion...

[odingski]

Started the assembly on the front portion.

 

[odingski]

Headlamp comes first then the grill.

 

[odingski]

Headlamps are on.

 

[odingski]

Mess in the engine bay.

 

[odingski]

A big task ahead for the electrical wiring.

 

[GLTHFJ60]

I love that color.
