The part number was still available a couple of weeks ago online. I need new blades on my 40 currently, I've had them open and in the cart on a tab on my laptop, I just haven't gotten around to paying for them yet.

More things checked off the list.

Windshield washer bottle had to be relocated to rad support. @Coolerman sent an extension pigtail(none of the original harness has been cut). Squirter is operational and aside from the wire clamps on the inside of the windshield, wiper system is complete.

Thanks to @Coolerman and @FJ40Jim ‘s details on the 80 amp FJ80 alt, we now have high 13s at idle with headlights and blower on.

Only in the same sense that “Festus” was a celebrity. Same grizzled exterior, awkward gait and a “month on the trail“ lingering scent….

In fact, I may have just claimed that name for the Mule. Let it be written, let it be done…:cheers:

Highjack over….

We punted on the clear wrap and went with Mossy Oak.

I‘ve got to see this before you ship it off to the Smithsonian..😳 Maybe get a picture standing next to it just to prove the “Legends” are true…
