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

[erse]

The bull bar is up and would like your opinion if I leave it stainless steel or a flat black color??

I would go flat black as a contrast to the rest of the rig. Either way great looking work and attention to detail.

Been busy finalizing the harness and putting it order, neat and tidy.

I have installed 2 horns. One for city driving the other for overtaking in hi-ways. A third will be a two tone air horn, for hard headed motorists.

The instrument panel is next...

 

[odingski]

A new fuse box cover. The old one had cracks and how they glued the pieces was just terrible.

 

[odingski]

I uploaded a pdf file of the fuse box cover sticker in case anybody would need it.

The grille is on.

Engine started fine. One click of the ignition and it fired up. Took a while for it to reach the right temp. There was a leak though on the power steering. Need to check it tomorrow before going further.

 

[Supermarine]

Great !!!

 

[odingski]

Got to get down under the dash and organize the wiring harness. I had to lie on my side and back to really get things done.

 

[odingski]

Got this tool from the web. Keeps the wiring harness in place and looks neat too.

 

[odingski]

I am almost done with the electrical. Got to get those interior accessories installed.

 

[odingski]

Fabricated the condenser fan bracket for the aircon.

 

[odingski]

Finished the condenser fan bracket.

 

[odingski]

Setting up the aircon.

Final buffing on all glass windows and windshield in preparation for the tint. I chose 3M magic silver as it is heavy during the day but light at night time. Easy enough to drive through the dark.

I was able to try on the instrument panel for fit. Needs a little adjustment. But overall, I like it.
