Me Sarcastic? never, just ask my wife.I'm going tell myself that you aren't being sarcastic and that you actually mean it haha
WOW!! It's amazing what a little elbow grease will do!! I need to do the same with mine. I haven't done anything to clean it since I got it. I am going to take a pressure washer to it... inside and outUPDATE
Cleaned the 55 up some today. I'm quite pleased with how it turned out, it made me feel good about the project I've taken on.
thoughts?
Agree. I think he’s feeding off an internet frenzy of people that don’t know very much about FJ55s.Looks pretty far gone and ultimately won’t end up much more than a parts rig. Too bad the PO let it go so long. If you think you like FJ55’s, I would suggest keeping an eye out for a similar year rig that isn’t so rotted out and setting this one aside for a parts donor.
Just my .02
Not feeding off any sort of frenzy at all. I'm aware of the challenges laid ahead, and it's not going to be a factory restoration. Make repairs, drive to corner store, enjoy the moments working on it with fellow cruiser folks. Those are the goals. Not these crazy long road trips to cruiser events, not getting everything within perfect spec. clean it up, get it to run, enjoy it for what it is.Agree.
