Man that's gonna be one sweet rig. Wish I had the time and money to do mine up right one thing at a time for now.

4runnermt · 09-09-2009, 09:55 PM

This is a cool project! The only thing that scares me is why is the dude spraying clear without a respirator? Yikes!

82odyota · 09-10-2009, 05:43 PM

well some people spray better when they are relaxed. He says its for the picture he didn't want to look dumb with a suit and respirator on. Why start after 31 yrs of it hell with it. Reprimed the roof today and going back to the block. started cleaning up some more for the front end.

yota81 · 09-15-2009, 01:47 PM

very nice...couple of questions though. are you going to reinstall the windshield and back glass yourself? i need to take out my windshield to tackle some rust issues, and have a sliding back glass to swap in, but I don't want to pay someone to come out to my house to reinstall the glass (can't really drive somewhere with no windshield)

yes we are going to put them back in ourselves. I will ask my father in-law exactly how he plans on going about it.. I would say just start at a corner and walk it in and use some plastic shims or something like to help align ur seal aorund it. When we took them out itwas a matter of 10 minutes and we were done just used couple shims and wedged it out. but i iwll get a more professional answer soon for you.

82odyota · 09-16-2009, 06:54 PM

i will post some pics tomorrow or friday when we get second door jam shot with some color. Clean up all the tracks, locks, door straps etc. after the door jam its cowl finsh and prime then doors. seven days off coming up hope to make some progress.

82odyota · 09-23-2009, 08:54 AM

okay i have had some issues with cameras disappearing thought it was my 2 year old turns out its me. i do have some new pictures though

misc pics

door jamb being etch primed and primed, ready for color that pic was lost.

cowl panel done and ready for wet sand and color shot.

one of the doors i put a couple precautionary patches on .. be easy this is my first attempt at doing them its usualy the father in law doing them.

and then the dash is tore down and being prepped for primer and some color.

i know its taking us forever it seems like it seems that way to all of us but when we are done i hope it is worthy of local show events.

also have all but valve cover shot in color and will have it soon so an overall of the hood compartment should come soon.

LOL! Yeah, whats ones health worth? Apparently not much! I've seen a few people die from brain/lung cancer after working around all these solvents for years without any protection. Definately no good.

82odyota · 10-18-2009, 03:19 PM

pictures of idash and inside panels..no post for a while because of rebuilding the entire rear window frame. doors are all but ready for trim out and then outside work. then it will be windows all back in and hood paint.

Al's Chop Shop · 10-18-2009, 03:44 PM

nice work!

Al

toylocost · 10-18-2009, 09:44 PM

Definitely looks like October in there.

toyospearo · 10-18-2009, 09:57 PM

NICE WORK !!!!
Keep up with the pictures!

83 · 10-19-2009, 11:35 AM

Totally, as much as that's not the color I would pick, it looks great!

NC C3 · 10-22-2009, 05:08 PM

Yeah...I'm not too crazy about that color either...BUT...you are doing a GREAT job on that thing and it's really looking awesome!!! Keep up the good work!

82odyota · 11-02-2009, 07:59 PM

swapped out buckets for a bench and threw some of the interior back together today

hooked up 99% of under the hood stuff now one wire left and the battery

doors 1 in primer next on is about 1/2 hr away from being primed

looking for opinions on the hood. I have the opiton of doing a custom hood by combining a mustang cobra hood and my stock yota or just running the yota. im leaning twords the cobra hood deal.

crawlerjunkie · 11-02-2009, 08:15 PM

lookin real good! I say go for the mustang hood.

83 · 11-03-2009, 06:31 AM

Can't say without knowing how it would look...

82odyota · 11-03-2009, 03:35 PM

today have front axle half way out. Passenger side frame scraped and ready for undercoat when axle is out. gas tank is undercoated. drivers frame ready from cab back but needs from fender well to p/s box cleaned for undercoat. I will be starting on front axle, springs, and shackles. hopefully tomorrow afternoon, while the undercoat is drying up on the frame. pics will be up tomorrow. when finished and iill try to get a pic of the cobra hood.

ocdropzone · 11-03-2009, 04:05 PM

saw the repair work on the door and did a double take on the fire extinguisher..
first thought--oh no!! not Lambo doors

first glance thought the extinguisher was part of a hydro set up for the door..

the detail is great on your rebuild

edit: oh and on the hood: Al's CHop shop has a double cowl intake on his hood and there is another one on pirate that looks pretty dang cool. For some reason Al doesn't think a 12 pack of beer and my hood is a fair trade for his hood...
I say go for it...if it doesn't come out right a stock hood is easy enough to find

82odyota · 11-03-2009, 09:48 PM

here are the pics from today

axle is disconnected and just have shackles left to get out of the way so that i can under coat the frame tomorrow.

started cleaning up front axle

finished undercoat on gas tank

tomorrow seat belt latches undercoat frame from radiator to bed mount.
clean up axle.

also here is the picture of the hood i have to use i would cut out the feature lines and panelbond it to the toyota hood and do some fiberglass and filler work to finsih it out. what do you think bout middle section formed into a stock yota hood. i think im gonna use it

camo31"10.50" · 11-03-2009, 10:00 PM

ooooo

post up a more distant pic of that hood on the truck

just kinda hard to really see what it looks like that close up..lol

i would but i have about 2.5 ft infront till the wall so its hard. the hood is about 1.5 ft longer than the normal toy hood so its going to be a lot of moddin but in the end it will be a good fit .

anyone know how much back space you can run and not rub on a set of 37 x 12.5 x 16.5's i am running 39.5's on 15x14 rims and do not rub on frame at all just wondering if anyone has figured out how much you can run without rubbing in front or back

maistroyoda · 11-03-2009, 11:56 PM

Stick with the original hood please!
