Title: Okay here we go!!! Day one and an introduction to my '89 FJ12 Resto project.
Post by: Jay on December 10, 2025, 04:33:01 AM
Hi guys.
Really felt like a 'typed-up' introduction to the restoration of my first ever bike (that I bought back in '02) was gonna take more effort than my raging apathy would allow. So I have made a short(ish) little walkaround video and uploaded it to YT.

Lemme know what you think, guys... and indeed whether I should continue to post progress both here and over there.

Thanks all

Jay

Jay, yes, please keep posting.
We love the FJ restoration rebuilding projects about as much as we love the FJ modification posts.

Jay, we enjoy the road trips on the FJ and the journeys they take us on before the trip.
