Best place in town to get some paint made and put in cans or source you have used?
 
Nice, thank you. Hopefully they can mix off a Toyota color code

Not sure about that. Mine wasn't original so we matched it best we could and that's the color I shot everything except the inner windshield frame and the dash. I was lazy.......but you can't tell the difference unless you look for it. :grinpimp:
 
I'm just doing bows so it doesn't have to be exact.
 
Spent a few hours today pulling an old and installing a new stereo head unit in my Tuffy console. Good music and Cruisers just go together. Anyway, the new cheap Pioneer will not turn completely off. It has to be wired to accessory power so it goes off when the ignition is turned off. The previous (dead) Pioneer was not wired to keyed accessory power. Any leads on a simple keyed power source on a desmogged '77 40? Thanks
 
Mine cuts off. Find a keyed power source. Been so long since I ran that wire that I can't remember.
 
Lash,

This fuse panel diagram is from the FSM:

The top three circuits are always hot, the radio/wiper circuit is accessory hot, and the others are ignition hot.

On the back of the panel, on the right side, there are spade terminals for the accessory hot circuit and one (I believe) ignition hot circuit...you can feel them if you reach around the back of the panel. Easy place to tap into switched power.

It was $25K when I called him a few months ago. I ran into him long before that at the grocery store one time and stopped him checked to it out. It is stupid clean.
