Read a thread on tidying up interior knobs and got inspired.

I did a labor swap for this frame to get the front cross member I needed. Now I just need to get that PTO shaft removed. BTW that rear frame clip is available. If anyone needs it.

Technically this was last week (but I was on vacation and avoided the internet/email). Went on a Trail run with the Seattle Cruiserheads around the North Cascade Highway (WA-530)

For the record the JK owner has an 1976 FJ40 as well, but it is having carb/distributer issues and is currently down for a bit.

76FJ40,

Any chance those wheels are 16 X 8?

I'm pretty sure they were 15's but I'll check on the diameter. I'm pretty certain they are at least 10" wide maybe 12".

Had my Chassis straightened and then sand blasted and galvanised as part of the re-build. Will paint it now with epoxy etch primer and black paint...then start putting it together again

My wife and I took a little trip with the 40 today to Granite Falls, WA, to see the water falls, here are a few pics of the falls:

This a branch of the Pilchuck river

Lots of granite everywhere

And some impressive cliffs where accidents happen every year when climbers get careless

Gorgeous. Why most of us are doing this I suspect. Thanks for sharing!

What's the story with the motor?

You should try and hit up @FJ45Dude . He's in Scottsdale, and I think he does the Cars & Coffee scene once in a while. Of course, it could be in his T-bird. I don't remember now for sure, but I think he said he's taken the 45 there.

Welded new steel in floor pan, did'nt like the fred flinstone theme the previous owner had

 

[Michael B]

Mark the motor may be available. I will need to check on it. It went back to the owner with all of the other big pieces.

 

[tls3601]

Good to know Mark & Thanks!

 

[Michael B]

Mark,
Kyle should be contacting you about the motor.

Michael <><

 

[cuteo100]

Took the top off!

 

[gcrump01]

Beautiful truck @cuteo100 !!!

 

[upperblack]

Removed the old windshield (most cracks in a windshield I've ever seen) in one piece in preparation for the new windshield that's getting cut tomorrow

 

[sggoat]

Sorry to hear that Beejii!!

Maybe windshield isn't needed in Finland...

@sggoat

Here, Gary... MUD has gone nuts!! I can't delete these pictures from my response to Beejii... I don't even know how they got on here...
