As I said to my friend. Luckily I restore a HJ60. I can buy "diesel" badge new and don't have to try my luck finding turbo badge in good shape.Here is a fun and rare bird.... the Turbo badge from the HJ61.Took me years to find one! They are often faded, warped or have broken studs. The metal grill brackets are often rusted to death as well.

@ToyotaMatt Those CHOKE knobs are awesome for all us non-efi guys. I still think it would be really bad ass to do a special run in solid brass with black infill. I know it doesn't exist in the OEM world but it would be cool!

I’m always open to bartering should you not have a need for that badge long term
awesome interview Chase. Just listened to it. Have bought a few things from him but all interactions were via email. Really cool story.
Replacement stone screens for the FJ60 round headlights.
Also, plastic knob on the handle for the manual OEM front and rear locker levers. The knobs are made of some kind of hard plastic that after decades just shatters into pieces.

Good source for OEM choke cables? Mine is starting bind and twist after 35 years of use.@ToyotaMatt Those CHOKE knobs are awesome for all us non-efi guys.

They're also still available from Toyota I just ordered a new one last year and reused the factory knob.
Here is my set up plus a sweet switch from @ToyotaMatt

I have made a repro. I haven't nailed down the details on the thru studs for attaching to a front grille and it is pretty labor intensive -red powder coat and black powder coat pieces basically glued together in final cure, but looks sweet. Finding the exact font that Mr T used was a nightmare.
Will they go for sale? I would love to say yes but for now I have to get the supply and cost under control.
p.s. sorry for the crappy pic. Chunk has the closest sample available and he is tight to the back of the garage and this is the best I could do in a pinch. the diesel emblem is factory Toyota.
Regarding the Heritage Parts Program for the 60 Series, I really think that if Toyota got a bunch of requests for the same part it would draw their attention. That’s why I think we should band together, agree on a couple key parts, and then fill out that form en masse. We have some weight we can throw around if we get the whole of the 60 folks on Mud together.
This topic probably deserves its own thread…

Someone could link this thread as a part request.

This will be one of my request submissions for sure , and it also both applies to and helps out 40 and 55 folks too , this is how we can apply the JEDI MIND TRICK on MR. T and Heritage program to get more out of 1 simple parts offering ....
you know , spread the love around a bit is not a bad thing here . we gotta work it to get the parts that really matter to us all the most , and thus far i have not seen that in what is being offered to the 40 folks ?

Body mounts, mud flaps, dash caps, dash bezels, chrome bumpers, upholstery parts, weather seals… so many parts… we’re basically in need of new production fj60’s and 62’s from the ground up. How ‘bout it Mr T?
Anyone look into how many new FJ 76 parts are useable? Probably wrong thread for that
I don't have mudflaps but I'd be down to fill out a form if someone can provide the parts numbers. Does anyone have all of these parts? A running list would be great.
Dash would be awesome
