you have got a lot of frame to build. That engine will bend the weak RA. But its been done.
im more looking into the 2rz swap, looks like it could be less involved.

Oh yeah, for sure. It has a good shell, only rust really is above the tail lights. Probably just cut it out and do something custom. The plan is to replace everything under the sheet metal anyway.

No I don't have an account there, I may have had one before but cant remember. Unfortunately the 77 is one of 4 projects I have going at the moment. Way to many really plus we recently bought a house that I am completely renovating.

That is where it is right now. The Z is in the garage, because someone slashed my top, and engine problems. The Merc. is in the driveway, waiting for restore. 26,000 original miles but it sat for over 20 years in the Las Vegas heat so it needs a complete tear down and inspection before I even try to start it. Don't want to damage the motor. The 4runner is our DD 260,000 miles (200,000 by me) still running strong. Man I love Toyota dependability! Really miss my 6GC.
