Hi everyone

I have a 1958 Toyopet and I have a contact that is making me a repro from an original one minimum order is 20 and will cost you $120.00 for all 20 of them I should have a couple of them next week for proof than I will have 18 more to follow. The guy that is doing mine has no problem doing the repro.

Thanks

Is this still something that can be had? I have a fj45 missing the plate on the firewall. I have all the paperwork and the frame is stamped. But the plate was removed aggressively by the previous owner... so... I am looking for a new one. 1964 fj45.
 
Hello Cruiser heads. I am trying to replace a missing VIN plate as well. 1968 FJ40. Was a good source ever found after all those posts? Seems that the style changed from year to year(?). I have found a repro source on ebay. (indonesia) but I do not know what style a '68 had. Any help appreciated.
 
Looking for someone to reproduce an early data plate. Any ideas? I found a few vendors online advertising some tags but they are not great quality and don’t match up.
 
I don't stamp them. But I belive somewhere in the thread is a guy that does
Yea pretty sure that is @ToyotaMatt and he is not able to do it. There is a group I was referred to in Europe but they have not gotten back to me. Plenty of people can print the plate but so far I’ve not had any luck finding someone who can do the correct stamping.
