Guys,
I'm restoring a 1965 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser and have completed most of the rust repair myself. I was able to buy rear quarters, wheel wells, the rear bed section, etc. from a company that reproduces them. I'm currently working on re-skinning one of the doors and there are no patch panels available. What I need is a piece of 16 gauge steel with a couple of beads rolled into it. Anybody know of someone who does that kind of thing? Thanks in advance! |

18g would be fine, but the rest of the body is 16g.

Those old FJ's are pretty cool. Post pics when you get it all together.

I'm glad Jason got you fixed up, I've known him for years he grew up building hot rods and is an excellent fabricator. I need to go see him one of these days, I haven't talked to him in a while.
