Found one on eBay. Did a little restoration over the weekend. Before and after pics. Any suggestions on how to make it any better? Is the hardware on the threaded lugs correct?

In search of an early style socket if anyone has one available.

Cable type Maybe just rebuild my existing? I have no experience doing this. How hard is it? Any “how-to” guides out there? Rebuild kits?

Looking for a carburetor for my 1969 FJ40 Bit of a newbie…. Why is the OEM so much more expensive than the aftermarket? Reference below from City Racer. Is OEM worth it? Pros / Cons? Other options...

Anyone able to find a solution to replacing the corner windows on the MPR hardtops?

Well, dammit. I can send a 6mm straight through and not engage any threads. So clearly this piece is fully stripped out. Any suggestions on how to remedy the situation?

Does anyone know the thread size in the turn signal stalk housing? Used to tighten the housing to the steering column. Pictures below.

Thank you! You still have this available (your original post was nearly 3 years ago…?). Would you be willing to sell just the cover?

Are you volunteering to take mine on and make it look just like yours?! :). I am originally from the Cleveland area….still have family there.

Thank you! Glad to be here. If there’s any folks in the central Indiana region that like to teach me a few things, or point me to shops that specialize in LC’s…. Sure would appreciate to make the connections.

This 1969 40 that I acquired has 2 fuel filters piped in, one before the fuel pump and one after. It’s a bit sketchy… but it is a South American rig so…. Need to inspect how bad the inside of the fuel tank is… maybe there’s s reason they needed 2 fuel filters…

AWESOME! Thank you so much!

Can anyone show me a picture of how the glass fuel filter mount in the engine compartment? To the engine? Fender wall? I can’t find any pictures or documents showing it. Thanks!

@pardion do you still have any of these available?

NLA?
