Hilux + CJ-2a inspired = OTJ (owner Type Jeep)

All wheels off the frame. Stripped and cleaned to bare metal—no shortcuts, proper foundation for the OTJ build.

Welcome to Bogz OTJ Build!

This is the official page documenting my one-of-a-kind Owner Type Jeep (OTJ) build on a 1976 Toyota Hilux 2WD chassis, fully titled and street-legal in New Mexico.

From frame prep and body mock-ups to full fabrication, stance setup, and final reveal, this page will show the entire build process step by step.

This project blends Filipino OTJ culture with classic Toyota engineering, creating a unique street-worthy OTJ. Whether it’s welding, cutting, body shaping, or behind-the-scenes fabrication, you’ll see it all here.

Follow along for:
• Build progress photos & videos
• Behind-the-scenes fabrication content
• Tips, tricks, and lessons from the process
• Exclusive updates on tools, materials, and sponsors

This is the place to watch the OTJ come to life, join the community, and share ideas with fellow car enthusiasts.
