How funny to run across your intro thread ... I drooled a bunch over that CL ad when it was up; and seriously kicked myself when it was taken down, for not jumping on it myself. I think you made a great buy & congrats on doing it!

Hope it brings you many years of happy exploring & tinkering ...

Well, the body work and paint are officially in process! Going with that new Toyota Cement (glossy primer grey with a bit of metallic). Found a great restoration shop that does a lot of classic Broncos and Scouts to work on it. I had to have new hinge pins made for the doors which were ridiculously expensive but I needed them. I ordered new windshield rubber and have the guy who deals the lights and rubber out of Colombia looking into whatever else he can get down there. Ordered a full seal set for an FJ40 Top in the hopes it can be modified to work with my top. They seem to be constructed very similarly. I’ll post photos soon!!
