Thank you! I’ve got the toe kicks and braces well underway!

Oh that’s pretty creative. And the carpet will definitely fit.

@dadstoygarage1878 necessity is the mother of invention.

Nice!

Thank you Brian! Also thank you for the advice on my questions with this project. It’s very true there are a fair number of hours in the window conversion!

Totally agree with that. I hope my actions reflect my beliefs as well.

Thank you!

Thank you! I’m pretty excited on how it looks!

Thank you for the compliments. I thought I had tracked my hours last winter when I fabricated the tub. But I must have deleted those notes off my phone. I went pretty hard on it though as I had to make it mobile by the spring. To get the celica back home. My budget is smaller than most builds which has led me to making vs buying. I have saved a lot in material costs by making the parts vs buying. I think I might be $600-$800 Canadian in tub materials not counting labour. I’ve got the actual numbers on my laptop. But as far as hours for tub fab I find it feels like work instead of play when I count hours 🤪. Tony and I occasionally discussed building these 40s for clients full time (pipe dream) We thought 3-4 stock 40s a year could be possible biased on the hours I had recorded. That’s 1-2 guys. The plus though I’ve saved all my patterns so that no longer would need to be done. Thanks again for following along on the build.

Thank you!

Thank you! just starting editing part 2 of these doors!

Thank you. It was a good time for sure. I think our local club is not racing any more.

I don't remember exactly the steps I took any more. But I use hog rings to keep everything tight. A good tip an upholster gave me was to take lots of photos of disassembly. I also mark on the old seat covers and the foam padding the covers go on to with sharpie where ever a hog ring was originally installed so I can put a hog ring back in the same location.

Thank you Brian! Also thanks for the advice on this project over the phone the other day.

Nice!

Somehow I missed the second half of your comment 🤦‍♂️. Thank you for the compliments.

Thank you, Thanks for checking out the mini build series on the custom trunk!

It started out as 1 1972 celica. Its heavily modified now.

Thank You! I have a final video coming out on it yet with some 3DV goodness and a great colour scheme!

Thank you! What car are you planning on doing the trunk work to? a Celica as well?

@ no, I plan on doing something in my 2017 Mustang GT. Trying to decide what I want to do because it’s on an air ride system and I really want it to look nice at shows. When I went to shows in the past I wouldn’t open the trunk because it’s awful! 🤣 Wires and a fuse panel and wireless switches for all my LED lighting are everywhere. I just picked up a central control panel where I can run all the wiring to and can control everything from that panel. That will clean up the trunk so I can make it nice back there.

@ cool. Probably be able to work those air tanks into the design too !

Thank you!

Saw a gray one this morning strapped to a flat bed. Looked pristine. Took a pic but not know how to send it.

@ hey that’s cool. I’m on Manitoba Land Cruisers on Facebook You could share it on there. I’ll see it for sure there.

👍

I gave it a comment on the face book group! and its perfect my dream 40 series

I believe I did just the curved 90's to help them take the bends where I wanted to be. The straight 90s were done on the table and clamped tight and hammered over the edge of the bench. I would not score thinner 18 gauge though.

Thank you Brian! I find that to that UA-cam doesn’t reliably recommend the videos I’m wanting to see. Even new channels that I’ve discovered recently I’m thinking those guys channels are awesome how come UA-cam hasn’t shown me sooner!

Thank you! Defiantly a lot of work probably 1-2 months of weekends. I believe the brand is called Forney. I'm using mig with shielding gas

I just went over to your channel and gave you a sub as well. Im going to watch through your fj40 videos. also great to have you join the Facebook group.

Thank you Brian!

Thank you very much!

it is the latest episode on that car. I'm waiting on the cylinder head work to be completed so I can finish assembling the engine for it. hopefully driving it early summer.

thank you! Hopefully I can bring the final video on this build to the channel soon!

thank you!

Thank you

Thank you! I’ll definitely have more Land Cruiser videos coming!

Thank you!

Nice what year fj40? North of wpg?

@ ‘75 with discs on the front. I’m on the North side of Birds Hill Park. I wish I made my rear quarters the way you did…

@@henryfast7300 I’m always excited to meet another 40 series owner close to home. Maybe at some point I’ll be able to check out yours in person.

I just created a Facebook group called “Manitoba Land Cruiser”. Feel free to check it out.

Thank you!
