    Awesome! Looks clean! Anytime I see them in Wisconsin, they're usually rust buckets.

    Yes, it is very clean. Some surface rust on the frame, but otherwise very nice. Owner had a classic restoration shop paint it 5 years ago. Very solid with no leaks. I listed the camper on CL and have had 4 people offer to buy the truck already, LOL. She's not going anywhere!

    Threw on a more modern camper shell I picked up cheap. Painted it Cygnus White, the same as the top of my FJ40. Turned out pretty good. Now to track down some white wagon wheels off of a land cruiser...

    That is the plan. Picking these steelies up and will paint them to match the camper shell or powder coat them as close as possible (which is what I did on my FJ40). Les Schwab powder coats for only $30 a wheel.

    Thanks. It was a rust bucket when I picked it up. Body off frame with a ton of new metal. It has been a fun project.

    New wheels powder coated and installed with new Falken At3ws. Decided to stick with a smaller tire for better on road performance. Looks so much better without the chrome.
