CruiserJimmy, did you sand the grill before painting it?. Also, did you paint, plastidip, or powdercoat the door handles?

Looking good Jim

 

[Cruiser Jimmy]

Yes, I hand sanded the grill the best I could and then primed and painted. All that plastic chrome was difficult to get off. I used the RustOLeum Truckbed liner product for that look. The image is Lightroom'ed up a bit so I could bring out some more details, so the color might be a little off.

I did the same method with the door handles but sand blasted instead of hand sanding.

wat wheehls are those and do i see a tyre rubbing on the front fender?

 

[Cruiser Jimmy]

BFG's K02's. 35 12.5 17 sitting on some Allied Rockcrushers. I'm not rubbing yet and don't plan to. I'll fabricate a solution or SOA before that happens.

Installed a nardi wheel and clear blinker and tail lights.

 

[HoJo 61]

Damn you guys with those highroof HJ61's...

 

[jpsfj60]

I want a Nardi Wheel!! Use to run those steering wheels on my MK1 GTI's that I built...VW!!
Where does one get a Nardi Wheel for a FJ60???

 

[drenmaster]

Any nardi wheel will work. Its just the boss for it that may be hard to come by. The boss is like $20 in japan.

I work at the university and if you have any questions about the Cruiser I may be able to help.

Finished rebuilding the carb and got it all tuned in nicely. Sure hope it passes smog now!
