TOYOTA PIC OF THE DAY POST (10 Viewers)

Their website is back up. Amazing work. If I hadn’t done such a complete job on my 40 tub I’d have gone
this route. Cause after time and everything, this isn’t much more expensive.

Teseven bodies are nice but nearly complete bolt on, local fella in Parksville spent countless hours installing bits needed to bolt on doors and other items on his stainless body. I would still go the factory stamped panels and reuse as much of my tub as possible.

How about a music video instead of a picture?
If this makes you smile then you might be a red neck.

Beauty truck!

I'm usually not a fan of the JDM style truck rims, but those ones are pretty cool actually.

If only they had actually spared no expense.

They’re great guys there. Last time I was they told me I should buy the New alternator I’d found at Mac’s auto electric. BRAE couldn’t buy the parts to fix mine for the price I bought the NOS Ford one. BRAE certainly the place to go for oddball stuff.

Right on Jon! I really like those guys and have used them many times.

In my ongoing rattle hunt, I gave the hood a thump while checking the oil and it made all sorts of weird noises.

Inner bracing is almost completely separated from the hood itself. Was only glued in by the look.

Just stuffed some rubber strips between the two for now. I'll pick up some monkey s*** to squeeze in there next time I go to town.

Sorta doubt it's the noise that's been worrying me, but it'd be kinda funny if it was.

If you find that expansion stuff for gluing that let me know. I was told it's no longer available. But maybe you can
source it better.

You started a thread a while back(feb 4) about needing that foam for your roof and I replied with some foams that are made just for that use-just wondering if you checked for them ?

Here's the link...

Expansion sealer for panel ribbing in hoods and roofs

I’ve been working on my Tundra and the roof needed a lot of work. The cross rib inside has separated. The foam type expansion adhesive Toyota used remains soft but still is an adhesive. 10 yrs ago I painted my 60 and it had to have all the hood ribs reattached as they had separated. 10 yrs ago...

I was thinking of just using 5200 or maybe just construction adhesive (monkey s***)

That s*** seems to stick to everything...

I'll check the foams out tho. See if anyone has any. Videl is most likely place in Nanaimo I'd think?

 

[cruiserpilot]

The info I got is they were all discontinued. But I
wasn’t feeling very well at the time. Big C had me down. I’ve still got a loose door panel
