Also been working on the dash. It was already stripped when I got it, but I've cut the bottom half off. I have a goal, not just randomly doing stuff...lol

It looked good when i saw it the other night. I like it. Before it was lowered, it reminded me of one of those amphibious vehicles. Lol.

Thanks man! It's definitely "project car" status, but it's coming along. Like Kurt said, needs a bumper, hood would help, and obviously interior work. But the engine and tranny are great, very clean, etc. :goodjob:
I think I'm going with flares; not too big on the epic camber, and these wheels will need something to fit right! lol

Did some more work...
Before cleaning

After cleaning
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g146/84_318i/DSC00116-2.jpg
Little bit of spray paint (probably putting floor mats in it)
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g146/84_318i/DSC00117-2.jpg
I'll be pulling the dash out sometime to do some more modding to it, so any overspray will be cleaned off any parts.
:goodjob:

In a strange ghetto-fied way, i kinda like that car with no interior.

I still have some major problems with the choices you've made with this car - such as the pointless exhaust and the tilted hood. But I must say you've stripped the interior nicely.
roll-bar or cage coming soon??

The hood flew up on one of the previous owners, I didn't tilt it, it's actually bent. There's kind of a triangle shape to the bends; the inside of the back edge is actually flat on the car.
But thanks on the interior compliment :goodjob:

no problem!! i love it, and the interior is awesome! i ran my landcruiser for a few months with out the radio or ac or anything and i kinda liked the peace, and just hearing it, but the interior is sweet, id keept it the same just throw in a radio, and maybe some wood work!!! that would be sweet!!, i love it
