Ok cruisermatt, that’s now (2) accusations against my character and ethics. I’d respectfully ask you to stop there. What’s next? I drove it cross country and back in reverse to take miles off of it.
I’ll stop short of calling you out for what you are, as you’re already doing a pretty good...
Thanks.
The owner recently retired and I doubt he will be buying anything to replace it...he never used it anyway. 600mi in last 15yrs o_O
I will be stashing my commission away in my fun car fund. Likely towards an 06-08 Porsche Cayman S.
If there are an Z car folks in here...my next...
First off, I can assure this wasn’t phony. The cashiers check for $66.5k arrived yesterday morning via UPS Saturday delivery and the vehicle ships out this week. I’ll post a picture of it being loaded into the truck. As a guy with a garage of 90’s era German cars and classic Datsun’s, I had...
Thanks. You are right about that. It was A LOT of work, but I thought a truck like this deserved the extra effort.
It definitely resets the top end of the market and it was cool to be a part of it.
Today is the day. 5pm EST ending time.
Thanks again for giving this transient member a warm welcome.
I promise to be back with the speaker grill alternative as soon as the new 3D printer is up and running.
Thanks to everyone for the positive comments....and for letting my know it has the wrong color hub ornaments. I think the black would look better but I wouldn't have changed them anyway prior to the sale. We can leave it up to the next owner.
Fingers crossed for a strong finish.
My listing just went live on bringatrailer. All the details are there with 450 pictures and a video
Hope posting this here isn’t out of bounds...if so please let me know and I will remove.
57k-Mile 1990 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ62
Thanks again to RustyNailJustin for helping with the speaker...
Here is a picture of the replacement grill. This is the same size as the aftermarket speaker grill it replaces (because of the indentations it made on the door panel) with the 60 series OEM look. This is still a test fit but overall very happy with it. 7.5 hours to print each one!
I also...
My main goal with this vehicle is to make a suitable replacement that looks like it could've been OEM. The marks that the aftermarket speaker left are definitely larger than the OEM grill. I plan to make the replacement just large enough to cover that area on the vinyl part but probably stop...
Reposting my wanted ad from earlier in the week with more detail.
I know this whole request sounds a bit weird....I'm just trying to creatively solve a problem.
Here is what I need: A single FJ62 front door speaker grill (either color... and broken tabs are OK) so I can have it put into...
