Got the first layer of paint on and it ended up being in the wrong color. Second picture has the color sample next to it.

After a couple of emails with Eric at monsteliner, he got me hooked up with everything I needed. The third picture is a comparison to factory color.

Looking good Jeff. Mustard is a great color.

mounted up other parts because I think it would be easier to paint them

I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel and it is a running, driving land cruiser.

Where do you think the inspiration came from?

Started reworking the spare tire carrier so it will fit a 35 inch tire.

Finished the tire carrier
So, did you move the tire mounting plate inboard to keep the spare from protruding past the D/S 1/4 panel?
I have my 35" spare on a stock carrier...so wasn't sure why you modified.
Leaving it black or going to mustard it?

Yes I moved it in and I moved it up. The center of a tire carrier is 17 and a half inches to the hinge and from the center to the bottom is 18 inches. I am not sure why yours fits, but a 31 I had on there was getting close to the bumperets.

That would explain it. Preciate the pics. Oh, yes I'm going to leave it black.
