Just checking in to see how things are going. One of my friends just got an 82. Those are really nice looking trucks. I havent seen one in so long around here. I get my project finished. I am going to make a 79-83 my next project.

Sorry to hear about the flu. We have had that going around here too. We have gotten alot of snow around here. That has slowed me way down. I am so ready for spring or warmer days. Looks like you can start reassembling soon. That the fun part of the build. I will be watching.

Just checking in on you. Hoping everything is going well for you. I found an 82 for a friend of mine awhile back and he got it. I helped him work on it for an evening. First time I have really been around that generation of Toyotas. Those are really shrap trucks. We just dont have too many of them around this part of the country. I will be glad to get mine finished and start on one like yours. I want to do a full frame up like you are doing.
