Austin I have seriously stopped being amazed by your fab skills and work in general. Are you kidding lol... your doing an amazing job. It looks absolutely fantastic. This is the best stages of any build. It's the 'wow" stage. Because at the end of each step you stand back and wow.... and it getting closer to the finish. You're a master craftsman Austin. I appreciate your work ethic. Your attention to detail. You don't spend a lot of time talking and "teaching ".. quick explanation and get after it. Your editing skills are such one almost forgets that you are not doing all this in the time frame of this video... but over a couple of weeks. As always looking forward to seeing what's next. It looks great 👍
For someone who is doing this out of their garage/ shop it’s crazy impressive how much talent and skills you have! Gets ya motivated to try this out on some projects I have lying around. Great editing as well, keep up what you’re doing.
It's looking great Austin, I'm really enjoying this build. I enjoy everything you do, but this is putting you into a new level of a skilled fabricator! Look forward to the next video to see what you tackle.
Great work getting at those rusted out areas of the cab. Using heavy gauge steel on the lower exposed areas is probably what Toyota only wished they could do. Excellent video.
I've been looking for your channel since I forgot your channel's name. Im glad to be able to watch your amazing videos again. I've been following you with your builds. Awesome, really awesome!!
I’ve watched the restoration of this Land Cruiser and it’s amazing! I don’t know what the final bill was but I know you couldn’t spend the same amount on a new vehicle and have as much performance value… And as far as the “panache” factor goes, please! Great video, thanks for posting!
Great wwork Austin ! Cutting all of the rust out was amonumental job. The roller was a big help for the quarter panels and they look great. Looking forward to the next video.
Wow. Awesome work dude!! That thing is looking sweet.

compañero te sigo desde hace un tiempo, te digo que eres un hombre con grandes habilidades, estoy impresionado con tu trabajo y lo haces solo.... que buen trabajo....
Looking incredible. Wish I had the tools to make my own sheet metal patches. In the process of fixing quite a bit of rust damage on my 4runner and I’m just using bondo and bondo mesh to fill in the rust holes.
Bro looks sick! I’m not totally into the idea of 1 ton axles and all, really like how these look factory with just some 33s but you’re doing a great job bro keep it up!
Austin... I was curious as to the brand of flap wheel that looks like it has a bunch of dots on it. I have seen them before, and I'd like to try them out, but I cant find them anywhere.
I know you mention it every so often but as far as equipment goes, any plans in doing a short video covering the minimum essential equipment to do the metal fabrication like you do on the FJ? If not, can you just reply with a quick list? Going to start restoration on my FJ next month and would love to know what you think the essentials are on a tight budget. Thanks for the great videos! Amazing work!
I’m curious about the raptor liner. Is that like a spray in bed liner or an undercoating? I’m looking for something to coat the bottom and inside floor of my car to prevent rust from coming back. It was undercoated in 71 when it was new and a lot of it is still there but it’s missing everything in the back that was covered up.

Wow thank you so much! I appreciate that! I feel like I still have so much to learn!!
As a 30 year bodyman I am impressed with your work. Great job, this FJ is going to be great.
Hey thanks man! I appreciate that!
I like that you are trying to preserve the old school look of the FJ fenders. I hope it works out!
Thanks! I think I can make it work!
Please please please do a full body repair and paint. This car deserves it!
That was therapeutic to watch. Thank you for all the hard work you're putting into preserving and beefing up this classic
Your attention to detail is amazing. You have lots of patience. The finished FJ should be amazing.

Thanks a bunch!!
Toyota khaki and white roof will look amazing with black wheels! Incredible work as always!
First day back home post op, blessing to have an upload from Austin. Always killing it in the vids 💪. Thanks for making recovery enjoyable!
Hey thanks man! I wish you a speedy recovery!! 💪💪
1st. Sit at table. 2nd remove stroopwafel off of coffee. 3rd enjoy morning watching Autin remove rust. Perfect Sunday morning!
i found this channel because this is exactly what i want to do but with an FJ45. fantastic work and instantly one of my favorite projects
Got to admit your name was the reason i started watching.. Content kept me in.
"My expertise level."🙄 This guy is a genius. 👍
Plus, it always helps to have the space, tools and a passive income source from YT to fund everything. 😉
Wow. this man is doing all this in his garage at home. Respect.
I'm really glad you went to the effort to cut out all the spot welds. Raising the rockers is a good idea too. Awesome work.
Thanks man!
You are a MACHINE dude!! You've mastered your craft so well, I can believe how hard you tackled this and how clean this came out. Amazing build
Thank you! It’s coming slowly but surely!
Great work as always! I used 8" sewer pipe cut in half in the hydraulic press to make jeep corners.
Skills + patience = talent ? Yesssss
I could watch your videos for hours. Your work is amazing.
It's looking great Austin, I'm really enjoying this build. I enjoy everything you do, but this is putting you into a new level of a skilled fabricator! Look forward to the next video to see what you tackle.
Anything AVR does is well done
Awesome work on the rust repair, those quarters look amazing!! That's the FJ Toyota should have built!!
In Argentina we could say you are a “artesano” 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👏🏼
Great work getting at those rusted out areas of the cab. Using heavy gauge steel on the lower exposed areas is probably what Toyota only wished they could do.
Excellent video.
For sure!! Thank you!
You are seriously skillful! Perfect job and should last many years to come, with lot's of off-roading.
Kind regards.
freakin sweet! cant wait to see the body done!
I discovered this man and been watching. But what a talent. 🙌🏽🙏🏽

My welding bottle has served to be an awesome big radius bending thingamajig.
You can also make a cheap pipe anvil to tackle lots of those jobs.
happy this channels finally getting the views it deserves!
Thanks! Yeah the last few videos are going great!! I’m stoked!!
@@austinniemela as someone who loves this kind of content I never understood why you didn’t have 10x the views! Better late than never!
Looking incredible. Wish I had the tools to make my own sheet metal patches. In the process of fixing quite a bit of rust damage on my 4runner and I’m just using bondo and bondo mesh to fill in the rust holes.
Hey man you can make most patches with a cutoff wheel and flap disc!! Thank you!!
Bro looks sick! I’m not totally into the idea of 1 ton axles and all, really like how these look factory with just some 33s but you’re doing a great job bro keep it up!
Good job, Man! Everything you do is insane. Really Master👍🏻
