Love it! That pic of you w the goggles is perfect. I wish I had all those cool parts you have collected to build something as cool as what you are building. Thx for posting.

I have ten acres in the woods and a supportative wife, so I have my life's dream of my very own 'personal junkyard'.
I do sort of cringe when I see my mean spirited post on this page. Please accept my sincere apology, I can be too quick to judge. I now have the running boards on and we have been driving a bit locally. It is licensed as a collector vehicle as a 1979 toyota landcruiser , body style-truck, color-blue.... Bench seat is a 3rd row seat from my old '86 suburban.

Awesome post. Love the character this truck has. Have you considered a windshield? Something that has ability to fold down?It just gets better.... Been driving the wheels off this old '55. Took it to a jobsite today and my 27 year old son said "Dad you sure we should take this to the job downtown? It doesn't really look too professional for your business reputation".... Let's just say the blue bomber stole the show. So Many tourists and locals too had to hear the story. I got to chat while my punk kid did all the trim work on the cabinetry we did for trhe new outdoor clothing store.

Perfect. I like the idea of two panes. That front protection grill is cool also.I have been collecting some photos of mostly ford military vehicles built with a factory cowl. I bought some steel yesterday at the Napa store. Thinking 2 panes like the fire truck, but folding like the one sitting on the flatbed. That one is the same year as mine and Australian military. I think I have a couple of the rubber hood pads and I know I have some hold downs.
