DOT.MATRIX (New And Improved!)

8:19 AM

The old DOT.MATRIX (RIP) was commandeered for the FX32. This is the new improved DOT.MATRIX. A buddy from AE82.net gave me this car in exchange for delivering a huge, mid-20th century Marlin V8 from Coalville Utah to Boise Idaho. It's relatively straight and rust free, but does feature a very clunky sounding engine, and an interior that would be improved by spilling (more) paint in it. The intent is to build it into a cheap, comfortable, fun, reliable daily driver. So far it has been an excellent yard anchor.

Here are a couple more pics of our B-pillar-kill-switch-box:


Paul's bondo work keeps everyone guessing
where factory  Toyota stops and MRolla begins.
I really like Paul's bending and shaping work.

Paul and Will have been getting the spare engine rebuilt and it's nearly ready. It's going to live in the DOT.MATRIX for a few weeks to break it in before Infineon, where hopefully it will just stay in the back of the truck.
