Dropped my wife off at Crate n Barrel in King of Prussia on Saturday afternoon. It was too nice to be inside so I dropped the tailgate on my 100 and relaxed in the sun for a while. :cool: What she didn't know was I was actually waiting for the person who owned the beautiful black 200 Series I...

Wow! That green light is a huge improvement! Definitely getting one of those, thanks!

Using the current circumstances to finally dig into my "new" 1978 vintage 8274. Bought it from the original owner out in western PA. He used it on an old Scout. He sold the Scout a long time ago and kept the winch in the garage. Winch works great but I have a little freshening work to do...

Didn't know they had a dump bed option.....

Saw this while driving through York last night around 5:30. Cracked me up....

Thanks Andy. And thanks for your guidance on the old school steelies!

Thanks Gary! Encouragement from experience is what I needed to get over the hump. I was afraid of being too aggressive with the mallet but after your guidance I was able to "massage" them just enough to achieve a snug fit. Sometimes it's the little things that make the difference! Some...

Nice wheels on that rig! I'm running gray steelies. Have some nice shiny hubcaps to go with them but can't get the darn things on! :bang:

Hi Matt, Wow! Really wish I'd known before I talked to the Toyota dealer this morning! (Nothing against them) You're really set up! And yes, I'm in Downingtown/Chester Springs area, about 45 mins east of Lancaster. If I was in urgent need I would definitely get them from you (as well) but I...

Progress Report: After removing the passenger side lock cylinder I cleaned it up and found a 5 digit stamping. 1 letter followed by 4 numbers. I gave this code to the Del Toyota parts desk and after looking it up in his book, he confirmed it to be a good code. Says he will have 3 (yes 3!)...

So, Mac kindly stopped over just now and we found out that his key does not fit the glass slipper.....:doh:

Thanks 76FJ40, that is plan B!

Cool! I'll work on it this evening & let you know🤞

Hey Andy, the one on the left. I just ran out to the garage to see how difficult it is to access the lock. Awfully nice plastic seal behind the door panel. I guess I'll try to peel that back carefully to see if I can get eyes on the lock itself.
