    cranky old safe

    This is really interesting! Good luck. I'm no safe expert but I remember a fascinating video I saw a few months ago. Look for "Richard Feynman's way of safe cracking." It's on wimp.com as one source. If you are not sure the combos you have are correct, the Feynman method might help you...

    Modern era...4runner replacing Land Cruiser?

    Not to threadjack but the mention of the venerable Toyota Corona brings me back. Had one when I was a kid in the 80's. Parts store guys would always correct you and say "corolla you mean?". "nope, Corona...look it up."
