I like what you've done! I've been following along from the first, and enjoying your work. I don't do a lot of posting/comments, but I appreciate what you went through. And, to get featured like you did is a real complement.

So I think after spending yet another day working on the hardtop, that I'm going to go with a soft top. I don't have a set of good doors (that's another $500), the rubber seals for the doors and windows ($600), or coatings/glue ($200). There is another top locally to me, but that's $600 and really doesn't save me any money because it doesn't come with doors. I can get a best top with doors for about $1,200... I want a hardtop, but at this point the need v. want along with "done now" vs. "done after several more days of work" is starting to weigh in favor of a soft top then, should I fix the doors or find new doors and spend time rebuilding the roof rail.... I'll have both. And I would like a trollhole top, but that's $2500 with the top and the hoops.

pictures in awhile
 
Not much to report tonight.... took Buick out for a spin, not happy except that he's with me so on balance, it's 'ok'


I cheated loading him - getting him out took help in the form of Kinsey.


clutch is too stiff, gas pedal is, again, sticky so some things to resolve... still deciding what's next. I think what's next short term is I'll take some very good advice to enjoy the build and go wheeling :)
 
so I put an ad up on Craigslist to sell the parts - wow, granted I'm selling them for 50% of ebaytail; but still, I'm amazed at the response. So far I have one person that bought the parts while in France (but lives in Seattle), and all the rest are going large distances.... coolness, I get the FJ40 I always wanted and others are getting theirs on the road - recycling works!
 
So today I had trouble, I flipped someone off but they didn't notice... so I fixed the horn


so that pretty much makes this done - I'll continue with the occasional updates, but I have 3 other projects (actually 5 if the trailers are included) that are not related to a 4x4 site.

This is my long-long-long term project

that has the nuts to carry this tire


with a twin turbo 455 Buick.... anyway - point is thanks for watching.
 
nuts n bolts
outside of going to a car show, I didn't do much today... but
Clutch, I'm still not there, but I'm closer I replaced the 1" master cylinder with a 3/4" long travel then moved the slave cylinder closer to the pivot point. It's a bit easier to push, but more importantly it fully disengages - but it's still not perfect and I want perfect so I'll keep working on this


under this seat is the fuel sender

and there it is


new one

installed, and for the record those are fuel tank zip screws


and the gauge works - which is a nice feature.
