1971 FJ55 FS Feeler - A FEW PICS ADDED....
Hello,
Usual story, considering the sale of my 1971 FJ55 due to tight finances and lack of money to complete.

lenses
for what its worth, if the lenses are just cloudy but not cracked, they can be "restored" with any of the over the counter headlight restoration kits that are available at Autozone, Pep Boys, etc......it takes a little time but, the results are well worth it.
I think the kit I used...
title says it all, looking for original (or repro if available?) owners manual for my 1971 FJ55. Not sure if there was any other small manuals or paperwork that would have came with one of these when purchased new back then but, let me know what you have. Is anyone making repeoduction manuals...
steel bumpers material.....
Bob......how thick is the material for the steel rear bumper? Any plans in the works for making a comparable front bumper too match the rear?

My May 1971 build pig has the threaded holes under the dash that looks that bracket and vent are meant to be there......should my FJ55 be equipped with that feature and it was just removed at some point? What was the year range for that feature? Is it tough to find the parts to add it? I always...
Ige, rookie question for you......in the photo in post #10, what is the knob mounted at the lower left end of the dash and what does it control??.....is that the hand throttle I have heard about or some kind of vent?? Thanks in advance. -Lee
