Everything goes including the AC system...Extra weight is not conducive.

Got $100 bucks for the complete system.

One happy Philippino...He got the motor for nothing...Sort of a finders fee. After the word got out around the island. People started offering me Big $$ for the motor....

Oh well

ezthere · « **Reply #46 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 06:27:12 PM »

get that chassis outta here. I was gonna take the fuel tank and add an extra tank. But in my excitment. Gotta way.

ezthere · « **Reply #47 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 06:29:39 PM »

See ya....As you may have noticed ALL this work was done out side...No garage or shop...Not fun

ezthere · « **Reply #48 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 06:34:16 PM »

The operator was not an able driver.. I found out later that when they left {we have a steep grade and a narrow drive exiting the property} He tore up a fence post and ran over some plants...

and kept on going...

back to business....Motor shot...Notice that I carved off the choke flute on the carb..Less restrictions...Air grinder..Tailor wires EBAY

ezthere · « **Reply #50 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 06:42:05 PM »

front shot of the engine...Those are all new brake lines..The master brake cylinder is out of a 1995 4runner and is iron.Not the cheap alum.

ezthere · « **Reply #51 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 06:47:00 PM »

Moroso Cool can...More for "coolness" then power & speed factor..It will help cool the engine on those hot days..The carb will be a more efficient heat sink.....looks cool

ezthere · « **Reply #52 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 06:50:35 PM »

Now your thinking "how will you drain the water out of the cool can?

Drill a hole in the wheel well. see pic

ezthere · « **Reply #53 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 06:54:14 PM »

Bud Built crossmember. Line-x'ed of course.. You can see the AA adapter mating the tranny and the transfer box

ezthere · « **Reply #54 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 07:02:25 PM »

Instruments...Autometer procomp tach, oil pressure, oil temp & water temp...

Thats Pamala Anderson adorning my rear view..She smells good..

.From what I hear gives good knober.

The dash was from my 85...The odometer was reset to zero...That was a pain..I used a reversable drill on the tumbler..20minutes and 96k miles later zero...

ezthere · « **Reply #55 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 07:09:01 PM »

What crazy rebuild would complete with out an hour meter...

It fit nicly where the parking brake used to reside...I will put a line lock in the rear..Just to pass inspection...

ezthere · « **Reply #56 on:** Jan 09, 2005, 07:15:34 PM »

Notice the new headlite bezels...Your local toyota dealer is your best friend with this kind of rebuild...

The future holds a new set of carpet pieces...Racing seats with 4 pt belts. 4.88 gears, detroit lockers.New grill and head lite doors..It's been allot of work..But light is at the end of the tunnel...

Oh the wife hates this thing..More pics as I build..

That's where I stand so far...

.....Later
