Ultra rare ?

Ultra rare ?

I thought one year only part would qualify as “ultra rare”, if you are not happy then let’s settle for just “rare” .

If you have a RHD here in the US it would be an ultra rare vent to find. Believe Toyota changed this after one year so they could make only one piece and spot weld the blank off section on either side to make RHD or LHD. It's a rare part that will work on 65-71 RHD 40 series with a factory heater. Have a couple LHD versions. Ran one on my 68 FJ40 for a while.

Your right Archie. Didn't catch the vent was sideways in the first photo. That would be correction orientation RHD. You probably had this a long time. How long has it been since moved out of US. Was it California to Victoria, Australia?

Thanks, I will try to take another picture with correct orientation and edit the photos. It’s all good here, it was California to New Zealand however we are on the move again and this time it is Victoria, Australia

Is it made of gold? The price seems alittle off.

How off? There was one sold in 2019 for $165 here on mud.

I bought one off mud for $50.

How long ago? and sometimes good deals do strike, however that wasn’t the case for me plus I paid over $110 just in shipping, duties, GST etc. I in fact listed for less than what it owes me. Happy to look at anything reasonable.

I think living in the past made it apparent that this is for a right-hand drive. Thanks for the info as always.

And later he also acknowledged that it’s for LHD, I too cleared-it up in the listing couple of times. Even though I moved to New Zealand years ago, I have got nothing to do with RHD cruisers yet .

 

[Archie 1962 FJ25]

Alright corrected the orientation of the image to reflect that it is indeed a LHD part. Let’s not create any more confusions .
