The day I pulled the motor.. hey I had to do what I had to do. My engine puller wouldn't go high enough. The kodiak came in handy for pulling it around the yard.
All that was said and done, I started on the interior.
Went with a quality set of Honda Civic seats straight out of the junk yard. After some welding and cutting they bolted right in.
Made a switch panel for my lockers and added a cd player and new steering wheel.
Next I needed a center console which is impossible to find for an 81 toyota in a junkyard. So I took 3 ammo cans and with some more cutting and welding, I had the rear can which doubles as an arm rest and storage compartment, the middle portion has the twin stick coming up through it and can also hold some stuff. The front part doubles as storage or a drink holder. Those are PVC fittings painted OD green.
The dog loves to ride in the ammo box while we're cruising the trails as you can see.
