Agree, keep your eyes on the road in "front" of you not on the rear view mirror to gaze at your new 45, as that could lead to a hypnotic state.
Hahahaha. So true

The suit had to be a little uncomfortable for your long trip but if the suit helped you close the deal for the 45 then more power to you...

I got that same rear bumper on mine, but mine's a little smaller? Congrats!

Yours is the third one I've seen with the same bumper. I would guess it was something the distributor added when they arrived. Mine looks like a cut domestic bumper of some sort.I got that same rear bumper on mine, but mine's a little smaller? Congrats!

Not only Toyotas but all sorts of cars too. On my trip, I saw 1 car towing 2 more all chained together with the bumpers removed and in the back seat. We saw a ton of those set ups.

Mine has the same style bumper. Bought mine twenty years ago in Lincoln, CA.

I've seen several like yours that have that same heavy diamond plate construction, but the sides run forward to a couple inches of the rear wheel wells. Do the sides of your bumper seem to be cut off? I've seen this style have the side pushed into the body panel leaving a big dent on one side and then it looks like the owner just cut the side portion of the bumper off.
Yes, I had the same bumper (Barden Bumpers of Porttland Oregon) on my 65LPB. A lot of people cut off the portions of the bumper protruding forward. I just removed mine. It was a direct bolt on application so it was an easy removal.

Looks like a great trip. Some of my greatest memories are the Landcruiser bibb in your rear view the whole ride and also the large # of cars giving you the "thumbs up". Once, while hauling a shortbed thru Utah, a guy videoed one side, slowed down enough to also video the back and spead up again to get the opposite side of the truck....makes all the bad road food worthwhile!
Drove the reverse route...from Wy to Florida to get this one about ten years ago.

My recommendation would be to get the original key duplicated and put it in a safe place. My luck would be the PO has the key for 45 years and I lose in 3 weeks...haha
