Fixed it for you Butch...........now you have a genuine bastardized FJ25 rim. 
Gene, your pics make me jealous...............actually out using your "not-really a FJ35".

Yeah, I've had it out several times, but this last trip I was out wheelin' it with the boys... through the mountains cross-country style. I was so impressed with how that stock wagon wheeled behind the 2F. I tore it up a bit, but it sure was fun.
I picked up this really big framed print of a 25. It's the one in the Long Beach museum, in front of the same building, but at a different time than the other older pictures that are around. Anyhow, I had to buy it to find out what the thing on the top of the windshield frame was. 
It's a piece of foam to lean the open hood against.

I got to see that truck up close at the TORC rally this year. Under-impressed. First thing I noticed, right off the bat, didn't even have Koito headlights! If they're like me, they prolly wish they had it to do all over again, but back then, when the unobtainium was just a little hard to get.
The 45lv that Specter resto-ed for the museum is MUCH NICER.

Mark, do you know who restored the 25 for them? Just curious.

Here's a pic of my "Not really a 25" and my "Not really a 35". Both are down for the count. I blew the head gasket on the NRA25 on Saturday, and the NRA35 is waiting for a new wiring harness. Now I'm stuck driving a Nissan Xterra. CRAP!!!

Gene, I thought you said you found the wiring problem and it turned out not to be a biggie.
Glad to see you and Stacy are still gonna hit the springs tho.
Talk to you soon.
Got all the smoked wiring replaced Tuesday night and went to start it up to do a test drive. Motor didn't turn over and I had to send my son into the house to get the marshmellos. I've always been a little nervous about original wiring and figure this is a good time to replace it.
That stinks Gene, I had an electrical fire in my first cruiser and it burned up nearly everything under the dash without popping a single fuse.

I've never had any fires except for an old ford van I had and that only had the wiring harness by the blower switch split open like an over cooked hot dog. I have burned my fingers before checking fuses. Of course it hard to tell if I had a problem because almost anything you touch on your vehicle here in the summer time will burn you. It's alway seem strange to me that everybody always has problem with factory wiring and the one place in the US that you would think would be the worst (dry hot desert) and I've never really had a problem or is it rusted connections that are causing the problems?

No, that was back when I was 16. Remember that home stereo wire that was shielded with wire braid (ground) on the outside? I had run that under the dash for some speakers.
I think it rubbed through the ammeter wire and it well.....grounds to any metal it touches.......
lots of pics when i get back from ''''uca'''...three 25's so far andi've only been gone 4 days

Not sure if I can disclose it's secret location. I did ask what he wanted for it and he said no.
