Welcome to my FJ1200 Restoration Project.

My FJ may once have looked like the one above, back in 1988, but 13 hard years on, here's how the poor old dog looks now...

Look at the scrapes on the
engine bar. Imagine the
damage if they hadn't been
there during the spill...

Fairing cracks held together
with black duct tape & cable ties.
Tank dented & rusted by thieves.

Light rust on front discs.
That should come off with
a wire brush & elbow grease.

Not too bad from a distance...

... maybe a little "tatty", but
it's probably running well...

There are some
things even the mighty duct
tape can't contend with.

Click on the links at the top, or the links on the site pages to see the different parts of the project...

Note: I've used images I found in other sites. If this bothers the owners, please
let me know, and I'll remove them.
