good lord........... that was a deal, wish he was selling it for that :grinpimp:
 
i thought he bought two of them from the same place.


michael is not on the boards. his professional and personal life leave little to no time for that. he travels to oz and south africa frequently and brings back a few rigs each time. it's a hobby and not how he makes his living.
 
do these look factory?

i first thought that someone had replaced the door panels in my 65, but after seeing the pics from this LV, mine look original. i guess they did this for utilitiy purposes? also, does anyone know of any tricks to getting the oval black plastic plugs out of the doors without trashing them? i thought about using a heat gun to soften them?

All I know is that I called on a 45V and was told I was a bit to late and that an American had bought it before me.... He's snaped up alot of stuff before me. Guess it's nice that he can take 4 months off a year and I'm stuck with my 3 weeks vacation in the day job..:doh:

Except I've got a few LHD Troopys in the pipeline:grinpimp:
 
hmmm, maybe they are original, makes sense as they would be alot easier to not tear up.

but the rope.........no its not stock ;) but some 45LV's had a piece of string as a stock item........quiz for you.......what was the OEM string used for?

Thanks. On the stopper, I think I could go to the local science supply shop and pull one out of a large beaker. :)

The '67 lv I bought a few months ago still has the original gas plug. Never having seen one before, and having no clue that it was original, I thought it was so ghetto.LOL

Lemme guess, you threw it out? :D

Well I tried to, but that darn Toyota Twine is so darn tough...

No, it is still in the truck. Even if I had replaced it, I would not have thrown it out. My rule is that when it comes to the lv, nothing gets thrown out.

I'm wondering...did the FJ40s from that era have that same gas cap setup, or is that lv specific?
