That’s just beautiful!
May I ask where did you get the new window seals/gaskets for your MPR top?

Lucky you! I drive my 43 everyday and will be needing window gaskets for the curved glass and back door soon!

You don’t have a rubber seal around those side windows?

It's a seal that get's pressed when the aluminum frame is crewed in

The idea is that it's going to be that again, together with a FJ40 FST

Wow, really enjoyed your build/restoration. I'm here in Bogota, about 6 months now and will be here for two years. I've sourced several FJ43's for the same process. About to pull the trigger this week to buy one, turn it into a mechanic/bodywork shop. Will import it back to the US in a few years. I've joined an Overland Colombia 4x4 club too. Thanks for all the detailed pics etc. Cheers!

@bernardbar3 welcome.
Any interest in being a parts resource for us North American FJ43 owners?
Good luck with your project.

I was thinking about this, getting parts for other members. Yes, I have found a few stores that sell original and non original quality parts for these trucks. I come back to the states about every 45-60 days. If you all don't mind the wait I can bring some of the smaller parts in my check bags? Email or Whatsapp, +57-304-600-9202, or 706-373-8782 USA number, bernardbarbour3@gmail.com. I have been a member of this community for over 10 years. I traveled up and down the Pan American Highway and moved to Colombia last year. Previously I drove an FZJ 80, I owned three of them and then moved on Tundras.
