The news reported tonight that there are over 30,000 abandoned cars throughout the city. That number just blows my mind. Crazy!
Again, thanks AKAIE15 for your warm thoughts and wishes! Much appreciated.
Thanks so much AKAIE15 - I live about 40NW of Houston and we got over 30" rain here. I have a "new" river running through the property, but the house and workshop are all dry and safe. Wish I could say the same for the rest of Houston, It is a complete disaster just 30 miles away.

I am putting up for sale my 1974 FJ40 Land Cruiser. I purchased from a fellow IH8MUD member Bsquared a little over 3 years ago. Bsquared did the high majority of the resto-mod and has kindly agreed to help answer any build questions you may have that I might not be able to...
Hey Danny,
Thanks for the info and insight.

Hello gang,
I have a 1974 FJ40 and my rear door outside latch has not opened the hatch for sometime. I've just opened it up using the rear inside latch. Finally took the back panel off and lubed up all of the connections and pivot points. Now the door can be opened from the outside easily...
I have for sale a turn signal assembly - what was sold to me as a 1974 part.
This is NOT for a 1974 FJ40, but it seems like it is the right part for a 1977-80 FJ40/FJ55. But I could EASILY be wrong, so please review the pictures and below info.
Since I am NOT sure on the correct model and...
DakotaKid, I went ahead and bought the unit from Gary and he shipped out yesterday.
