Really nice rig, and really nice work! A lot would just have scrapped it after that roll, but you actually made something good come out of it! Thumbs up for the resiliance of Tencha AND owner!!!

Your truck is just about perfect now, the front fender cut turned out really really well, that i like especially.

How is the soft top doing as far as sealing out the elements and noise?

Hi guys .. Thanks .. really thanks all ..

I apreciated this comunity as my home and I had made really good friends here .. I hope come more and more throught the time ..

I try to answer all questions ..

The soft top it's noisy .. much more than a hard top coul be .. but it's obiusly. IMOP the most important issue it's the heat transfer from outside and the AC here in Panamá .. I'm aways fight with this and triying to improove it.

Long Ranger .. where do you live here .. ? you are a Zonian . ? I have much frind that move when the Zone over .. and other live here this days ..

Cody .. my intercooler come from a Frod Mustang and I found it in SummitRacing

89s Rule .. I have no idea how much power I'm getting from my old 2H with all mods .. it's pretty m uch more that I get before .. but anycase I want more !!!! I'm little afraid to get She in a dyno .. coz I dream with 200 HP .. and 400 lb/p but the reality coul be hard !

Detailed view of my front fender cut ..

How to remove a ugly bull bar from a J**p .. Attach it here !

Little flex ..

I lived on Albrook AFB in the Zone. I came back to the US in 1977 after a year with a yellow t-shirt with the word Zonian printed on it, much to the confusion of my highschool classmates. I loved being there. We fished Gatun lake for peacock bass every weekend. I remember places like Santa Clara beach and El Valle in the mountains. Parrots, iguanas, tree sloths, boa constrictors etc etc etc.....I would love to go back.

Very Inspiring write up and photo's if my truck get's rolled anytime, Im heading down the same path you've so generously mapped out .

 

[CruisinFJ60]

im still currious about your front bumper... Did you have it built, or did you buy it? is so where? or did you build it?

 

[kling-on]

SWEET..... nice write up

 

[redcorn]

Nice write up David and I must say that Tencha is one hot looking lady.

With the volume of mud we have here in the MidWest, I may have to invest in the tire chains.

Bueno!!!!!

Ayyyy

Verle a Tencha me quita las ganas de vender Louie....

Seeing such a great rig makes it harder to sell my 60. They're just such *cool* trucks!

Very cool 60 What a transformation from full wagon to cool convertible.

Awesome David! Nice write up. Your tencha is really cool.

have you done many trips with the roof off yet?

Cheers!

Thanks BB .. We are in the heavyes rainy season here .. so no chance to get any trip without roof ... actually she's not seen much road due the pouring rain we have every day ..

I would love to go back.

If you come to viisit us .. you didn't gotta recognice anything here .. we are getting nice improvements here ( some for good and some others not as good as you want .. )

im still currious about your front bumper... Did you have it built, or did you buy it? is so where? or did you build it?

Custom made here in Panamá .. easy and pretty cheap, it not cost more than 200 bucks, with a 2" square tube 10' long, some paint and welding.

Ayyyy

Verle a Tencha me quita las ganas de vender Louie....

No la vendas cabron ! Naa I underestand sometimes we need to re thing in all .. and are not all about cruiser. I keep my Tencha coz I can .. and I was younger when I start with she ..

Much times in my life I choose buy a tire or locker than a new jeans .. and I sell my surf board to buy my suspension many years agooo ..

Well I promisee videos no . ?

Thanks all for see this thread .. and make my proud 60 series owner ..

from me .. dad of Tencha

Your insight on mud has been great, second to your posts on the cheerleaders thread............

 

[davegonz]

Tencha is one classy lady. I love that new top you got.

 

[sandcruiser]

vendiste la tabla?!?!

Pero en serio- verla a tencha se me complica vender el mio. Pues veremos si logro mantener los dos. Ojala.

Lo que hay que hacer es hacerle internacional a la tencha-- vengate por aqui y vamos al campo! O c/ el 80 (Walter) o c/ Louie.

 

[Landcruisin'60]

Watching those videos and hearing the diesel makes me want a diesel even more. That and the soft top makes Tencha one of the, if not the coolest cruser I've seen, the chains on all 4 tires also help that . The soft top may be happening to mine next summer... I cant wait.

On a side note, where did the name Tencha come from?

 

[philos1]

que bonita!!!!

love that rig man! and no more selling "tablas" for parts, that just hurts!!!!
