She is heading down to @kelly saad next week! Cant wait for the next phase...recall a year ago Kelly said he was a year out, he was right!

@Cruisers and Co crazy how much changes in a year...you have a fully blown shop building awesome rigs, filled the turbo void in the most responsible way possible and have been an amazing partner in all of this...better yet a friend.

@JohnnyUtah2 you now are a member of the Cruiser & Co team! How cool is that? What a crazy journey!

Honestly all of these relationships and helping out the community, the companies and the people are so rewarding to me. Maybe I actually just love you all and not really land cruisers...they were just the vehicle to bring us together...and sushi... @OGBeno

Brett, it's truly been a pleasure working on your truck, thanks for working with us on it! Can't wait to see what @kelly saad does with the paint! Going to be a one of a kind 80 for sure!

That comprehensive parts list is courtesy of @truthdetector THANK YOU!!

 

[OGBeno]

Thank you for thinking of me. Pretty comprehensive. A few left out but that’s for another bedtime story.

 

[tampacruiser95]

That's my favorite cruiser interior. My first 80 had the same interior before I sold it.

Correct. I didn't list out some bits and bobs needed for flare assembly like nuts, rivets, grommets, etc.

 

[shellb]

unbelievable, that we can still get OEM carpet and dash pads from Toyota!

 

[Heckraiser]

Wow, never knew about the dash pad! How much for that beast? I woulda bought one years ago.

I’m digging the DeLorean look!

 

[kelly saad]

What're you using to remove old paint? Seems to work great!

Several different tools but for the majority, I use a polisher with a 5" hook and loop pad. Starting with 40 grit on this one because the paint is so thick, then switching to 80 after I get close to metal. Conditioning discs on my Aircat 1 HP die grinder in the body line areas, but you have to use sandpaper behind those places because the conditioning discs don't leave good scratches. Makes a huge mess everywhere in the shop. We try to do it outside when possible. Before primer, I sand everything with a DA and 100 grit also.
