Correct, they’re riveted on. So we would have to drill that out to get them off. I’m thinking this would be a job for a good 3D printer if anybody knows someone.Mine are missing all together. But from what I've seen, they don't even unscrew off. Correct?
Those look pretty solid. $80/pr isn’t cheap for a little part but... @Tancruiser tells me money is no object with an LV so...The only thing close is the early 40 bug catcher window knob and they are black specter part #124-92r
Yep the plug is original, its just missing the string that attached to the hing to keep from losing it. Earlier year LVs had a regular style gas cap.Oh one last thing, my LV has a rubber "plug" for the gas tank, and I've tried a few different versions of FJ40 gas caps but none of them work. Was this plug original? What kind of a cap do other owners have on their tanks? View attachment 2111274View attachment 2111275
Thanks Antony! Good to know. Anybody ever found a suitable replacement? Mine is falling apart a little bit, would like to just store it to preserve it and use something else.Yep the plug is original, its just missing the string that attached to the hing to keep from losing it.

Thanks! For the most part I copied @tahoe40/45 ’s design. Seeing his truck in person last year was extremely helpful.That bumper turned out very nice!
Thank you I really like it too. It’s hard to know what “correct” was on these LVs but the original was a Capri blue and white like this, I have photos from before the PO’s repaint. I’ve seen a few different shades in different builds. FJ Co’s looked more teal to me.I really like the color combo on your LV. It's probably my favorite for an LV.
I’m sure it will go faster, but I am in a pretty hilly area, that was just surface streets. Need to get it out on the freeway I guess and see what else she has I suppose but speed isn’t my priority the F135 is certainly inferior to the F155 though my first FJ was a 72 and that engine was definitely better. We will need to get ours together for a Play date one of these days!50 mph is your top speed ? That's not right. My wagon can cruise at 70 mph as long as its flat.....lol. I have had it up to 80 plus before too. Granted I do have a 74 F motor, which is alittle better than an f135.
LV is looking very nice though.
