    First 10 minutes with ‘new’ ‘64….and this happened

    Yeah, that’s different. Post a pic of the engine side of the firewall.

    First 10 minutes with ‘new’ ‘64….and this happened

    Originally that is the transfer case vacuum actuator for the front wheel drive (FD), and the light is the indicator that the front drive is engaged. Not sure though what that replacement knob is for unless it’s some makeshift thingy that still operates the vacuum system. The long pull lever...

    First 10 minutes with ‘new’ ‘64….and this happened

    I don’t think ‘64 came stock with a reverse light, so you’d have to wire in something aftermarket. Still have the 3-on the tree? You’ll have to wire in a switch to that, or go with a dash switch. But if your dash is pretty much untouched, it’s against the law to drill any holes in it, we’ll...

    Congrats on the “old” cruiser. The only thing better than a ‘64 is a ‘65 and a ‘63, cuz that’s what I got 😝. Rear tailights, turn signal lights and brake lights are one unit on your rig. So check the connections and grounds like you said. Also, there should be a floor dimmer switch between...

    I got the 2-1/16” tach to fit in an existing PO hole in the dash. I don’t think it came with the bracket like the Autometer one you posted. I have an Autometer mounted on my column in my SBC’d ‘65 40.

    Real time help: stranded in grand junction, CO

    Rough running, stalling but eventually wouldn’t start (cranked, no fire). It had maybe 2 ohms resistance on primary (bounced around) and was completely open (no resistance) on secondary. This is the tach I have, I too didn’t need anything above 4k 😂. Funny, I paid $125 for it brand new from...

    Real time help: stranded in grand junction, CO

    My Speedhut tach needed replacement (it was still under warranty), but I honestly can’t say if it caused the death of the coil or the other way around, or the events were completely unrelated. I replaced the coil first (city racer coil), and rig ran fine. Then I replaced the tach with another...

    If electronic dizzy, then coil is in it (top) most likely. You’ll have to get the specs on it to test it.

    Can you carry your boards with a soft top? Maybe a vertical rack off the back somehow? Or just sticking out the back?

    For Sale 1964 FJ45 For Sale

    What’s that seam in the cab? Looks like maybe it’s modified to be a removable top (sort of). Fixed rear cab windows instead of sliders.

    New 1962 FJ40 FST

    I bet if one of those pieces fell in the hand of a machinist we’d have a repro option fairly readily. Of course as long as John @pardion has his stashes we are good to go 😉.

    How to remove shift lever rod in column shift

    Push on the “E” pins simultaneously and pull out shift lever “B” (but watch out for flying pins because of spring “F”). Once that’s out you can pull out shaft “G” (and keep track of spring “I”). You’ll have to find a used shaft “G.”
