Bummer

Would have like to see that ... cans are nice too

Do they let you go to old warehouses and look for the dusty boxes ?

 

[cruiserdan]

I haven't done that recently. The dealer group I ran with was very opposed to obsolescence so we never collected much.

Afaik Shane was distributing to cruiserparts as well as sor... when the falling out here happened... I do see sor does have lots of the sticker offerings still

Think Kay keeps in contact with Shane

@cruiseroutfit @cruiserdan

We were stocking many of his parts as well. I still have a barge inventory of his decals as well as a personal collection of other parts.

Horder lol

My horder comment is not out of anger... it’s out of jealousy

He doesn't hoard. He manages an inventory.

Oh, the Mrs would disagee. There are quite a few bins of NOS or rare stuff in the hoard divisions. Let alone all the Coleman stoves, Utah history and travel books, etc.

Do you offer marriage counseling?

 

[cruiserdan]

Sarah is way more into Coleman than I am. Perhaps We could set up a counseling session when we stop by on Monday? You and I can dig through bushings and Sarah can take corrective actions.

Is there a spare tire carrier latch that goes on the 1975-1976 plate style on the driver side? All my searching comes up with passenger side latches.

That's not surprising, thanks for info @4Cruisers.

Plenty of used ones around.

@65swb45 I am looking for the latch, I have the hook. I was considering buying a new latch for the passenger side and taking it apart and using what I need for my ‘76 FJ40. My latch does not catch the hook at all, and I have the handle zip-tied to the hook.

I might have one of those. It would be a lot easier for me to remember to look for one tomorrow if you would leave me a message at the shop.

Interesting it shows the date change of 9/75 when the spare tire changed sides 1/75 with the start of the ambulance doors in North America.

Yes it is interesting John. But IIRC, there was also an exception to the 1/75 change you and I are used to seeing: the 1975 FST tire carrier continued to be on the passenger side.
