I hope this question isn't too ridiculous. I sure could use some advice from the Mud forum on where to start a 40 project vehicle. I made a rather spontaneous purchase of a 1970 fj 40 from a mechanic down the road who was downsizing. Looks like a long project for me to tackle with my kids. What I know is the engine was replaced with a rebuilt 350 chevy and they did a power steering conversion. It lots of torque, rides likes a tank and stops eventually. Lots of surface rust but haven't found any soft spots or holes. So, should I first tackle the rust? Take the tub off, doors, hood etc - media blast, repair metal and repaint? While the top is off, coat the frame with Por 15. How else should I be thinking of this? A few pictures below.
