The last round of Crewcab photos...
before she hits the road. All I really have left that I have to do before I can drive it is put an exhaust system on and get windows made for the rear doors. The interior will still need to be completed and of course there is always little stuff but its almost ready to roll. Anyway everybody tell me what you think of my world record holding "Shortest Roof Rack on an FSJ" Later, Blair

Yeah I don't think I would want to do it start to finish. I have to many things going on and I'm too busy etc. But this was a good project for me to finish and I think it's coming out pretty decent even though I'm trying to do it on the cheap.

Oh yeah, lots of cutting, fitting, welding, beating self in head with BFH for starting, etc. On the cheap is good, what we all are and do

Sharp, real sharp. You gonna wheel it at all?
You don't still have that 727 kicking around, do you? I could make a trip up this summer and take that off your hands if you do. I could ogle your truck one more time too...

Yeah as of right now I still have it. I haven't driven this one far enough to know how good the tranny is in it. But the only thing that I would use it for is if this one badly needs rebuilt. I should know a little better in the next month or so. Later, Blair

Very Cool it's the best crew cab Jtruck modification I've seen yet.
 I can't wait to get my project to 'running status.'
