Hi all. My next line drawing will be from the inside of an early model FJ40 (this angle might be hard to take in a 45 unless the back window is out?) with the ribbed dashboard (1967 and older?) and I have been scouring the Internet and Mud for a picture. I don't know enough about these earlier models to understand whether what I am finding is original. I need your help.
I need something like what I found below on Spector Offroad's website, but lower. I want the entire windshield in the frame with just a touch of hood showing so that I can draw that awesome trim on the hood. The problem that I am finding is that I have no idea what a factory dashboard looks like. It's been 40 years since I was inside of one this old, and this one doesn't look right. It is missing the heater, it doesn't have a column shifter, and it appears to be missing the 4x4 vacuum shifter on the dash.
If you have one, please post a factory picture from this era. I am open to FJ45LV pictures from the inside, too. The FJ45LV is my dream car (don't tell my FJ40!)
