1st Gen Hilux 3RZ build thread - Stoffregen Motorsports

OEM shifters have two boots, one underneath to keep out the muck and stink. I could use CV boots under the finished interior boot.

Ah.... I misunderstood your earlier statment. I assumed you were planning to use *only* a rubber boot and not cover with an internal. Disregard my original suggestion, then.

I misunderstood as well. For some reason I thought that by "not OEM" you were looking for something less finished looking, more utility.
Those Lokar boots are 100% Naugahyde! Fancy.
Personally I'd hold out for Corinthian leather

OK, it ain't the '83 Hilux, but we did take a trip recently to Barrett Lake and I thought I'd share some of the pics.

I heard it was a great run. Maybe mine will be ready for the next one.

I thought Harry wheeling was just a myth...

Your what? Are you building a crawler?

I took a look at your Chevy build thread. Cool stuff.

Yeah, I've got an '85 4Runner with a swapped in RTE/R151. It's getting a 60 front/70 rear on 40's. I have almost all of the parts gathered, just waiting on time to start on it.

Thank you for the compliment. That truck probably has at least 25k miles of dirt under its tires. I've put probably a thousand or more in the last month or so and I really enjoy exploring, but I still miss my rocks...

No kidding on the sightings. He is one busy man.

Thanks! Unfortunately, I keep up too much other paying work to be able to post regularly on the '83. I just started a BJ74 Land Cruiser build yesterday. You guys will see that here on ExPo soon.

One day. Love to have my own shop.

All it takes is one customer.

If anyone wants to see a Jeep build, I am doing one here:http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/147804-CJ5-Resto-Mod-Project

Another awesome build!!!

 

[Stoffregen Motorsports]

It will be when it's done. It will also be the most expensive 1st gen out there.

Thanks.

I made a wonderful mistake at roughly 2130 last night.

I stumbled on your modern farm truck build...which then led me to your cj5 build, which led me to this build, then to the 40 and 74 builds and now its 4 hours later and my wife asks why I won't go to sleep.

Your work is amazing. Every build has been unique and top notch. Mild and wild. Please keep sharing your builds with us!
