60s are the last ones I like with Patina

Well For for sh*ts and giggles, here is my waiting in line 04/75, had to do a sill replacement, tank clean out. PO took a lawnmower to EGR wiring, so needs some help to idel smooth - was sidelined because of busted rear leaf pack - fixed. Have the flamethrower and pertronix to put in. BUT, this is an original Whitehorse 40, bought at Mic Mac Toyota in 1975. Front fenders will get some sealing, perfect floors and perfect rear quarters. Once my back heals up, will be on this using @wngrog fluidfilm approach, plus a disc front axle i have..time, need more time:

He's about $5000 too high on that one

Two of mine. Blue 77 is almost a driver. 72 runs but needs a few things.

The bezel is up side down and all the luck is running out of the up-side down horse shoe.

The bezel is up side down and all the luck is running out of the up-side down horse shoe.

Lots of folklore about horse shoes in various cultures, facing either up or down, having to do with luck.

However, some folklore suggests a horse shoe facing down on the exterior, is intended to ward off negativaty or evil.

In that context, I may want to put one my FJ40 too! Couldn't hurt.

Sounds like a crap shoot. 50/50. Ask the rabbit how lucky his foot is.

Calendar worthy.

I agree that is a nice picture and worthy of being in the Classic Land Cruisers Calendar. However the trucks that I put in the calendar are from the guests that I have on the podcast. So @Hayden70FJ40 would you want to come on the Classic Land Cruisers podcast some time.

This isn't mine but I saw it this weekend going to a family Christmas party and it is half a 67 and half 76 and looks to be possibly a 67 FST
