I didn’t receive anything

Nick, We all know what an old car means - that things can go wrong. The car you sold me (pictured by my name here), has EVERYTHING WRONG, and there was no disclosure about any of it. I called you and discussed the condition prior to the purchase. We're talking about misrepresentation and...

Nice try, Nick. I'm not a car flipper and you know it. I called you before the eBay auction ended and told you that I have three toddlers and needed a dependable car, not a project. You assured me it needed nothing. Its ironic that the car you sold to me was also under false pretenses of...

You sold me an FJ62 a few months ago on eBay for $13k. It was horribly misrepresented as "everything works". I had to spend $5000 on it to stop the transmission leaks, upgrade the non-op A/C to R-134, replace grinding wheel bearings, replace a radiator with a hole in it, patch the gaping...

Ok...

I have a machine shop. If you can send me some links, images or drawings, I can make a batch here in California for all of you.

I haven't taken the dash apart yet. Do any of you have a pic of what is behind the blank? I want to mount a small gauge there if possible. I circled the spot on the picture. Thanks

I've read several postings that contain creative installations for jump seats. I like the idea of getting a folding seat that mounts to the side of the cargo area and has a swing out foot. I would also tolerate the installation directly to the floor (if there is room to work around the fuel...

I have 1500 miles on my rig now since I bought it a few months ago. It starts perfectly and appears to run fine. Doesn't consume oil. Gets about 11.9 mpg on the highway, and 10.5 mpg combined city/highway. 31" tires. On the freeway, the slightest grade puts a halt to acceleration and I can...

I could use the lens for the check engine light (perhaps the socket too) and the power mirrors if still unclaimed. Thanks

Forgive my ignorance, I don't know the history of these wheels... whether they are typical upgrade for these trucks, if they have special fitment on the backside, etc. I'd like to replace the center caps since they appear to be rusty (not worth rechroming). Anyone have an idea where to get these?

Ok, how can we connect? I don't see how to do a private message on this forum?

Looks like someone stuck a pencil through the check engine lens on my dashboard. Its badly cracked. Looking for a replacement please.

Patrolling Mulholland Drive this afternoon.. Beautiful day.
