LV window cranks and the metal escutcheons behind them are in the “unobtainium” category. …AND there are two types:bang:

I need to eventually get one for my LV as well.

I have the windshield out of my LV and can make you a template. Send me a PM with your address. It's an interesting piece of glass. Bottom edge has a curve in it.

PM incoming.

Wow, that one is a remarkably rust free LV. More pictures please!

@hooter - really glad you are ok. (…and that beautiful truck too). I’m sure you will get it fixed up to your satisfaction and safety comfort level.

@scoobiedubes - Congratulations on the move the the Lake Tahoe area. Hang in there on project Lara. We all go through the full spectrum of emotions, both high and low, on these long term projects. They are just flat out HARD!!!! Lara will come together and be a great addition to your...

Glad you’re “one step closer”. What a great feeling hear the engine purr after so many years.

I’m a total arm chair quarterback but I’m still voting. PP17 and the epic pictures from the San Juan mountains of southwest Colorado are still my favorite.

I guess the answer if Matt has one is "no". He sold me the exact one you had pictured above (GMB, Japan marking and cast fitting). I looked back only to be amazed that I purchased it almost 3 year ago. Hopefully you can find a rebuild kit and your back in business.

Check with @ToyotaMatt - I think he had a few early water pumps in his inventory.
