I prefer yellow, but that's just me.
 
I asked about that and the lady said to just hang the old ones in my garage.
Exactly what I did with all of my Land Cruiser related license plates. 😊
 
No runs, no drips, no errors. :grinpimp:

True envy
I have a Power Jet exhaust, going out straight from the passenger side, in front of the rear right wheel.
The wheel is always black, as new🙃
And I always need to find a megical combination of percentage of slightly open windows so that I don't choke on the exhaust gasses.
I think my brain matter is already 40% NOX...
You now have a beautiful system
Thanks, I'm really happy with it. Manta makes nice stuff.
 
Finally got this baby running after 36 months of stripping to the frame. Body was 2 years with @kelly saad using 25 OEM panels from Japan and he has done a spectacular job building a car from a mosaic of parts. Put 22 miles on it and it rides like a dream. Terrain Tamer parabolic springs and adjustable shocks installed by @orangefj45 and his golden crew. Can’t say enough good things about them. All instruments working including the 80 series speedometer deleting the mechanical cable. I can add now the 80 CC.

Had the guts to take it on the freeway to 60mph. Baby steps. Still electrical small tasks. Hook the elockers, ac, etc. then start building the camper.

The aluminum tank in the second photo (left side) is the coolant tank for the hydronic heater.

It is a humbling experience building these rigs. So many mistakes and so much knowledge absorbed from this community. Thank you all.

More in the category of 'what I want to do to my 70 series'-- when I purchased it had 2 covers for fog lights. One fell off years ago. Despite putting pics on milk cartons, never saw it again. Stored the other cover, came across it recently. Spurred my interest in finding replacement. I've searched around, no dice. No part # on it. I found a post somewhere in ih8mud from many years ago of someone selling, but that's it. All thoughts, suggestions, ideas of where to find this apparent 'unicorn'?

While this has absolutely nothing to do with your missing light cover, we would like to see you in East Tennessee in September. 😁

A quick Google Lens search turns up >
ランドクルーザー70純正フォグランプ 12V カバー付 KOITO ランクルプラド ランクル60「中古」の落札価格|トヨタ用|Yahoo!オークション(旧ヤフオク!) 落札相場- オークファン(aucfan.com) - https://aucview.aucfan.com/yahoo/q1170373390/

Maybe try Yahoo Auctions Japan/ Buyee
 

I had those lights on my PZJ70 with the same covers. Got them off buyee. They used to be had for a decent price but have seemed to gone up now.

Should have kept them because I had a rear cargo mat made with the same logo when I first got the HZJ77.

Beautiful! Really love the choices you made, classy and old school aesthetic while using new tech.
 
I've been driving my RHD a whole bunch lately and the other day I went to move another truck (LHD) and opened the passenger door to climb in.....This is usually the other way around....So I was happy.....Carry on.....
 
What do you recommend for the FZJ75 troopy leaf spring front bushings? OEM? Polyurethane?

If I walked up to the wrong side, which I did way too often, I’d simply kneel down like I was looking at something. 😊

For ride quality and durability, factory bushings.
