From a 1965 with a brass 66 tag. Thanks for the 45 area Woody :)

is that for the back seat? I also see a strap...........my 64's do not have either :(
 
my 64's have no way to really keep the seat folded up, not sure what they used, but I bet it was that strap I see under the seat. I know they never had the bracket like shown as there are no holes on the floor. also no old snaps........

Strap: I dunno...

Levers: Those are the "flip the rear seat forward" pivot points on my 65 model...
 
Round #2:

Stock sun visors from the same truck. I know these were stok in '66. How far back does this design go and were there other designs?

Those look to be the same visors as on my truck. My 45LV is titled as a 66, but it has the little brass tag on the engine bay plate that states, "T-66. So it was built as an earlier year. I think it is a '65 model, as the vin number doesn't start with a "4" (I heard that the 4 designated a 64, but they stopped that practice in 65),
 
same visors as my 64's.

how did that white 45 look? (tell me like poop :)

Stock 45LV seat belts
mine doesn't have any seat belts. I don't know if it used to, and they were removed, or if it never had any. I do know that my 65 Galaxie convertible only has belts in the front seats, and they are listed in the owners manual as an option. I also know that seat belts weren't legally required in Americano cars until 67 or 68ish. Since regs usually lag behind for trucks, they might not have been required for even longer. But, even if they weren't stock from the factory, they could be oem Toyota, that the dealer added. Hopefully someone else can be more definitive. At any rate, I hope this helped at least a little.

Check sor.com FAQ.
 
my 65 fj40 had seat belts like that, they were red though. I need to dig em up now :D
 
those are all correct, all early 40/45's had the turn signal body painted body color.

also the lower hood hold down I think was body color, the upper(on the hood) was white......I think,
