Got some cool photos of the fj40 this past weekend.

Best pic I have seen of an fj45 in a long long time!! So epic Rob!!

Josh and I both remember this exact spot. Photographer's on both sides. One tracked me down to share this. What an Awesome shot.

I have a really nice front floor mat that I was going to use in my 66 FJ45 Restomod but just can’t bring myself to cut it up. It’s in great shape with one small 1 inch cut on the side of left footwell area. See photos. If you want more photos...

2 days of racing over a brutal course. Steered a rear spring pin. Bent a front leaf spring and got a hole in the radiator ( we plugged with a bar of soap ) 3rd place finish over a 100 miles overall. I'm Proud of what we accomplished

the truck hasn't made it to BAT yet due to a long list of personal interruptions. I'm tossing this out there to the cruiser family pre BAT, please don't hesitate to DM with ANY questions. attached is a build link as well as the photo shoot for...

Semi annual soul glow application

I cant own a 45 without a stamped bezel, headache rack,and a pto!!!

Brian, you really need to keep this gem. Fantastic find…

Happy Thanksgiving eve mud family!! 🍺

It just seems so right!!!

We got some snow last night, so I took it out at the end of the day to test the heater and have some fun. The heater didn’t have any problems keeping the cab warm. I played with the front, center, and rear lockers they all worked as I expect...

The pins alone are $65 with another $12 in four extra bushings. SMG has a great product for us all. I have the door pins and the windshield pins for my new late model frame I’m getting ready to put on as soon as I can get some paint laid down...

This is the last I saw, didn’t seem like the pins fit without boring or redrilling? Is that what you did Mark? Nolen @wngrog any input. Friendly bump. Someone with an early white/beige/lite green rig should pick these up.

Paul, yes you have to use a 3/8” drill to make the holes bigger to fit the pins. Hope that helps.

It’s rainy, cold and dreary in the Pacific Northwest. Thought I’d post a few pics of our last camping trip in the FJ40 to remember the warm, sunny (and long) days of summer:

HI Paul, Someone here I think Nolan maybe used SMG‘s later hood hinges and used four of the bronze bushings instead of two. It works perfectly. You just need to order four extra bushings.

These are early two ear FJ40/45 hood hinges. New Stainless removable hinge pins from @SMG are included. $150 includes free shipping.

I’ll take it. Pm sent

It’s yours Paul, I’ll set it aside.

I’ve been moving this cowl vent mechanism around for a few months. Removed from my 66 FJ45. Mechanism works perfectly. $40 plus shipping

I bought this wiper motor cover several months back for my windshield frame swap. This is the earlier small version. I ended up needing the later model that’s larger. Nice shape original paint I believe. $60 Free shipping

New price $135 shipped.

Thanks Ken, now If she just knew how to clean the truck out and vacuum 😂

Christmas tree and wreath bows expedition. I wasn’t getting out of the house this morning without the copilot. She thinks the 45 was made for her……if it moves, she wants in it.
