Some pictures of the FJ in my garage...






I haven't really done much aside from more interior cleaning...
I went to the DMV and got it registered and legal, but I still need to do the CHP inspection (it's been "out of the DMV system" for 10 years) and add it to my insurance policy (YAY for 8 vehicles on insurance!)....

With my son only minutes or days away from being born, the FJ is going to be a part-time project concurrent with the fence that goes on - week after week - being built.

As a matter of fact, aside from the eBay parts, I should get my boat running and sell that thing. That would pay for wheels and tires quickly.

I think I have decided to do the "mini-truck swap" of taking the axles out of a 1987 (or older) Toyota Pickup and putting them under the FJ... not as strong, but, then again... I have friends running 40" Swampers with Marlin t-cases on rock-crawler rigs who have never broken an axle or Birfield.

Fun fun fun.

After these pics, the driver's seat was temporarily re-installed for ease of driving.
