Awesome!!! Congratulations on summiting Grand Teton! And your leader friend...guess you are never too old if you stay in shape. Great pictures!

I have one I can bring you...brand new with the clip...reproduction from Cruiser Corps. Look for me in the gray/white 1969 FJ55. I will be at camping cabin 14. DM me for my phone number if that helps. We arrive Sunday afternoon.

Big mistake! When I switched from a carb to Holley Sniper EFI with the LED screen with all sorts of numbers displayed including temps…well I can no longer NOT look! I think I miss all the real beauty when driving now. Ignorance might be better? LOL

Awesome and welcome!

I sent my original 2F carb to Marlin before he passed away to have it desmogged and rebuilt. Kept a good mechanical fuel pump as well. Both sitting on a shelf now. Just in case I ever remove the Holley Sniper EFI. Of course I’d have to figure out if my current fuel line setup would still work...

Yep. The arms should not be level because of the gears. The driver side arm should be just a bit higher than the passenger. The window is still solidly in the channel thanks to J Mack’s duct tape trick.

80, 60, 55 nice set of Toyota 4x4’s!

Been getting ready for Solid Axle Summit next week in Ouray, CO. Been there a bunch of times in my 100 but first time for the pig. Completed the following over the last 3-4+ weeks for my SAS trip: - new Odyssey ODX ADM24 battery - checked and changed fluids - fixed the cock-eyed rear tailgate...

I’m sure you all were wondering what I decided to do…not! LOL. Anyway, I decided to go the easy route and just get a group 24 size battery. I went with the Odyssey ODX AGM24. I got Napa to give me 20% off so it was “only” $322 rather than over 400. It has 840 CCA and the X stands for extreme so...

@bobm That is a fancy setup. One of my goals is to learn to weld and do metal work. Maybe once I retire in October this year and my fingers don’t have to touch a computer keypad any more! My setup is below. I added a coolant reservoir as 1969 simply dumped on to the road…simpler times. The...

Interesting. I put the washer bottle in a different place as my pig came with a broken one in a parts box so I don’t know where it was supposed to go. Those pictures are super helpful! I will look again for more bolt holes. It do know after measuring I have the smaller size batter tray. I may...

Ha anyone in the sty replaced their group 24 size battery tray with a group 27 size tray? In my 1969 it looks like there are two additional threaded holes that are about 2” from the holes for the original tray. The holes are closer to the firewall. If yes tell me more. Alternatively, what are...

Some ceramic tint and a drive through Red Rock Canyon…

I bet Classic Cruisers in CO has one. Give them a call.
