Hey guys I've got a question. This summer i bought a fj55 on an impluse at a farm auction for a mear $50, at first i had the great idea of parting it out due to the fact the it was rolled and the body was trashed, but during my great adventure of tearing it to pieces i became quite attached to it.
So anyway my dad and I got the bright idea that it might be possable to build a new body for it seeing as mechanically it was fine (started up first time with some fuel down the carb after sitting for 3 years in a field)
That begs the question is it really worth it and cost effective being 16 years old with a car payment and a part time job i don't have alot of money to throw around so would it be worth doing it or should i just run with my first idea of parting it out hopefully being able to pick up a complete cruiser some where in the future?
Thanks alot
