Hi all, new member here in the South Island of New Zealand.
Getting into metal shaping as I embark on a restoration/rebuild of an old FJ40 LandCruiser

Welcome to the forum Karl. Landcruiser's are becoming quite valuable now.

Welcome mate from across the ditch.

I used a few FJ45 parts on my Willys Truck build.

Invention is a combination of brains and materials.

Very cool looking project!
I am definitely still at the learning stage.

Welcome, Karl.
We spent a lot of happy hours in a new one, long ago. Mountaintop sunset campfires. 38 relentless MPH up long paved mountain grades. Churning through thick snow. .... "Built like a fort and equipped like a general store."
We celebrated being out of the War by "going back country."
Make that project happen.
