Nice man! i am planning on making my own door cards. They won't look factory but that was never my goal on other cards i've made for other vehicles before. as far as the gas peddle, a I am using one from the Toyota Hino I think it is. I wasn't as fortunate as you, as I can't find parts hardly anywhere.

chrome no mo’. I got the wheels back from my powder guy. I went ahead and powdered the center caps black. I can’t find the “T” center caps in black so these will have to work for now.

Also, my powder guy had some old 31” 10.5 KO2s from a customer laying around so he gave them to me for $150 bucks. Barely used but old.

I have my Hilux wheels available if anyone wants to drive to upstate SC and grab them.

I got the new reproduction door cards on. They made the arm rests looks pretty bad, so I need to find a spray dye that matches the light blue for those.

I changed the plugs on it and started it for the first time in a month and the RPMs shot up faster than I think I’ve ever seen a vehicle go to. World’s fastest idle. I immediately shut it down but heard a pop under the hood. Upon inspection, gas was leaking out of the fuel pump so it must have popped the diaphragm. So it goes.

Is there a Sem paint that is blue that will work?

I’m sure there’s something close - I haven’t look into it much yet.

Yeah, the guy that makes them is really good. For the money, you can’t beat them and really are better quality than the originals. The backer board and clips are better quality and should last.
