Hey enough of that tail gate lid and get on those side panels....haha:D ...like that the panel has the lip support :beer: . What type of windows are those? where did they originate from? I didn't know they made those...would like to get a hold of a pair someday , very nice.
 
Jason, just offer the side panel storage on the left side. No need to mess with fuel connections. The left side already has the storage area without making any mods. Just a thought! Joe

I'll have some more in depth plans in a couple more weeks. I'll be in the paint booth this weekend and for some reason things come to me while I paint....

Andrea has been at the storage unit getting things packed and organized. I told her if she saw anything Toyota or "suspect" to let me know. She brought me this box earlier this morning.

These might come in handy for Samson's 2FE build.

Maybe expensive.... I can't remember if its the IN or EX valves that are NLA.. but I have 2 sets of each. Piston are still available IIRC, rings.. not sure.


I have a few cruisers I've never let you guys know about. I will be building these sooner than later and selling a couple as well.... Funny... I will load a complete car transport on this move to Spokane.


Samson - ('86) with 2FE, H55F, 4:11, FF rear, Harrop F & R lockers, 3" lift (mfg TBA- NOT OME), Cast metallic black
&
Delilah - ('87) on 100 chassis 2uzfe (maybe SC), 5 spd auto OE rear and Harrop front locker, IFS or SAS front- haven't decided yet. 3"-5" lift (w/ BL-- mfg TBA-NOT OME!) color TBD
&
NOT NAMED YET - ('87) 12HT, H55F, cable lockers F&R, 4:11s (Parts are on the slow ship from Netherlands now)
&
NOT NAMED YET - ('85) 3URFE w/SC and 6 spd auto (PENDING EVEN MORE MONEY FOR R&D with my electrical guys)
 
Holy chit!!! Quite a collection
 
12ht, 5 speed cable locked... That's the chit.

I had a chance to drive @Mr Tibbs 12HT and 5spd and loved it.

I got a fair deal on the 12HT w/all accessories, 173000KM, 5 spd and complete cable locked axles-- $6800.00 shipped to my door.

Pete, I have a few guys scattered across the globe that are always on the look out for me now. South Africa, Australia, Austria, Netherlands, Dubai and Japan. Most of the time its not what I'm looking for but occasionally I get a diamond.

The guy in Dubai owns a custom restoration company. He bought 18K worth of armor for a clients 61 build from me last year. He is always running across interesting stuff. Most is out of my price range.

WOAH!! I am turning green with jealously over here. Nice fleet, I can't wait to see the HJ61, what country did it originate from? That is great deal you got.

P, That one is a year or so out. I'm thinking I will paint it a mottled dark orange, black, tan, yellow and white... similar to the background in my avatar logo.

Like I said, once I get moved I'm gonna get back to what I love doing. Don't get me wrong, I love building armor, but I'm going to start playing with builds again.

Not too shabby. He has a few from 140-250KM. He owns a metal stamping business and buys the cruisers for the panels to make molds off of for the most part. I told him I would help him with money off the engines, transmissions, etc so he could keep buying cruisers to get good panels for R&D. ;)

No brainer there. He set up the shipping etc. and it was really reasonable, IMO. I had him break the motor, H55F and TC apart from each other and take all the accessories off the engine so it was a crate of "PARTS" instead of a complete engine... Too much customs BS paperwork. Plus, I want to tear them down and rebuild so I know what I or a client will be getting.
 
The 12H-T is an awesome motor. 20K miles with a lot of smiles thus far after swapping mine in!
