Waiting on gauges, fuse box, flashers, switches (gonna be push start, with toggle switch lock), and spedo sendning unit to come in the mail. Next project should be brakes or a new radiator. After that, shes gonna get a whole new drive train.

    That should be a hoot once it's done. What do you have planned for the engine & trans?

    short stroke, big bore, I wanna be reving over 10k (it's a ferrari right?). high compression, run e85 (cheap race fuel!). Use as many off the shelf parts to keep the cost low as possible. Still have much to look into, like if there are off the shelf heads that can do what I need and I haven't even thought about the trans, but i figure im at least a year and a half out before I will be seriously purchasing anything. That is unless these reptiles give me a bunch of fun money. I will also most likely be having to build some sort of tube frame to keep it together, but my car don't like to stop right now and I have overheating issues sometimes with the motor in it now, I need to get them sorted out before I think about going fast. I'm in a parade with the car for memorial day, time to see how the cooling system holds up this year, but a fancy aluminium radiator with a few electric fans is in the near future.

    Nice! I used to have an FJ also...only mods were a slight lift in the front to level it out and some decent tires. Loved that truck and miss it greatly...:tears:

    They're pretty capable in stock form with decent tires...yours must be a beast off-road...

    Any plans for a solid axle conversion? :D
