Hey everyone, I have just bought a '69 55 that is great overall condition aside from being in need of a few tough to find parts. Does anyone have ideas (or have!) the following:

-rear bumper
-passenger side visor
-driver's side mirror
-windshield washer nozzle (that goes in the round hole on the hood)

I have been searching on the usual parts sites and called places like SOR, struck out. They say that these are just too rare!

I really appeciate the help!!
 
PM me with you address - I should have a windshield squirter I just removed from a '68/9 FJ55. FYI - You can use a front bumper as a rear bumper on an FJ55...
 
bumper

JerseyPig,

I have a rear bumper that I haven't removed yet, but I'm considering not reinstalling it after restoration. If you're looking for an OEM bumper, this might be your needle in a haystack.

Selling this one may help fund the spare tire carrier I'm looking to put on mine. PM me an offer. Keep in mind that depending on where you are, it'll have to also be shipped, which isn't cheap!

I may have a set of mirrors, would like to sell as a set. The pair are above good condition. 100.00 for the set plus shipping. will send pic ASAP. also will be at surf n turf for pick up
 
Thanks so much everyone, this is fantastic. I will send PMs ASAP for the various parts. I tell you, I started sweating it out with buyer's remorse as I developed this sinking feeling I wouldn't be able to find parts but this community is awesome. My 55 is not with me yet, bought it, but it is being shipped from the SW to NJ so I have to wait a little while longer. Will post pictures as soon as it's in my possession.

The mirrors look great, I will take them. Do you want me to send a PM with my address, etc, and how I get you a check or paypal? Thanks a million.
 
One more part I forgot to mention that I need as well is the RH Land Cruiser emblem. If anyone knows where I could find one, it would be greatly appreciated!
 
Jerseypig, I have tried to send you PMs but it says you message box is full.
 
Sorry about that Hosemedic73! Cleared out the PM's but more importantly, the money is on the way for the mirrors. Just sent via Paypal. Do you happen to know anyone with a rear bumper and a driver side fender Land Cruiser emblem for the '69! Almost there...thanks.
 
I just got an aftermarket squirter for my pig and they both came in one unit that fit the hole in the hood.

Good luck!
 
Where did you get the aftermarket unit? I am in good shape now but still on the hunt for good parts suppliers, spares is a good thing it sure seems!
 
StevenS, finally got around to looking at your pictures and all I can say is sorry, I started with the removal from hibernation so followed with how great it looked cleaned up and then the tree! It looks like it's all coming together though. Keep me in mind if you hear of a rear bumper though, that's still the first choice! I get mine hopefully Tuesday and will post pics then. Take care.
