SOLD Early FJ40 Rotary Headlight Switch (1 Viewer)

[kevos37]

Location

United States

I have an early rotary headlight switch for a fj40. The switch functions properly , missing the large knurled nut. It has a Krondor knob and there are a couple of chips on the back plastic. Nothing that will affect the performance. Now the only caveat with this sale is I want it to go to someone who really needs it , not a for resale or a collector please. And I Know Who You Are LOL.

$70 shipped

Cheers
KevO

Again I would like this to go some one starting out. Guys who miss the opportunity because they get snatched up quick.

Fair enough. If it is still around awhile I am I buyer.

I am a buyer for one of these for my 67 build. That is a good price. I don't need one yet so I hope this good deal goes to a good home. Thanks for making it available for a great price Kev!

yes John they are .........

because some folks are locking up the last of the NOS ones that were in some sort of underground circulation , in sealed hyperbaric chambers
never to see the dash of any Land Cruiser ..............

My definition of a flipper (cruiser or otherwise) would be someone who has no interest in the parts/vehicles they are buying and buys them with the sole intention of making as much profit as possible. Do I buy parts when I find them at a good deal, of course. Do I sell some of them, yes, the ones I don't need. Do I try not to lose money on the parts I sell, yes. Does that always work, hell no. Do I have cruiser porn on the walls, absolutely! Did I build a pole barn just to work on cruisers, yes. Have I been a part of the LC community for going on 30 years, hell yes! Do I need a rotary light switch for the 67 daily driver, yes I do. Do I need a NOS one, no, but it sure would look nice! Clearly I am not a flipper

Hey KevO I am restoring a 65' fj40 way up here in Canada and was looking at my truck over the weekend, and realized that my dash may not be as stock as I had assumed. Still trying to figure out these early cruisers. I attached a picture of my dash knobs, wondering if anyone knows if that white knob on the left is stock or not? Is that where this rotary light switch is supposed to go?

Not sure on the white knob, sorry. But here is a 67 dash configuration with the light switch.

Sounds like we may have a contender. PM
