Are you going to put the factory PTO floor lever in (cut the tunnel) or try and use the pull lever below the steering column? Good stuff!

Will probably stick with the pull lever under the dash until I repaint the interior. Have to fix the paint from the leaky brake master and paint the tunnel red anyways.

Is the motor in your 45 original to the truck or is it a transplant from another early 45? It looks very familiar to me. Like it might have been the original motor out of @jomelo’s 45.

I too have a teal colored engine…

Engine #F190410

However if anyone has engine #:
F 178759 I’m a buyer as it’s the original engine for my ‘63 SWB FHT.

I guess teal must have been a thing for Toyota engine paint before my time. I wonder why? I learned something new. Thanks for sharing.

@Tank5 @Unimogguy that is the engine that was pulled out of @jomelo's 64 swb what is your 63?

What’s in my ‘63 is F193342, block dated 40201 - Feb. 1, 1964.

What should be in it per the VIN tag is F175782 - rig VIN is 13048 so 1000+ later than yours so your engine S/N should be F17XXXX or even earlier. What’s in yours?

Correct. I wondered if anyone was going to catch it. I purchased the brown 45 from him and it came with the engine he took out of his ‘64 SWB FHT. Once I start the rebuild process I’ll start a thread. I’ve just been gathering parts since I purchased it.

My vin 12018 should have engine 174615 has 344754 out of my 71 pig, have the 174615 in the shop sitting waiting for someday.

12016 should have 174607 and has 206505

Vin 12013 thats being restored right now his engine # is right between both of mine but vin is 3 earlier.

Thank you very much for taking the time to help me out. I think your photos and info can get me started. I'll take a look at them today. I'll let you know my findings when it's all sorted out.
