FJ 60 going into the paint shop, finally. - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

So I finally found a reasonable paint job with a 5 year warranty, and the old girl is going in on Thursday evening. A last ditch effort for this color orange has been defeated and she will remain the Toyota factory brown.

I'll post up some pics of her when she gets back, 2-3 weeks without my 60.

I finally be rid of the hacked up install, non-usa sliders.

It's gonna be between $2500-3000. THis includes the truck almost completely torn apart, every dent removed, complete prep work, that last hacked up slider removed, and 6-8 coats of paint. The guy that owns the body shop is married to the lady that I go to for acupuncture.
