Made a cool bumper sticker for my Pig...
Put in a headliner too...
And lastly (not really in this order), painted it!
Good job on the headliner, TJ. Assume you installed an extra roof support when you did the additional dome light? Did that on mine...great addition. Actually had two extra supports, so added the side to side piece and then cut the other one to run it from the rearmost support to the middle above the rear window. Plenty of roof support now.

Wow, guy. I feel terrible for you. You poor thing. Hang in there. We're all rootin' for you.

Pablo,
I look forward to seeing your wagon. Can't say I ever seen a picture of it.

It is in the latest issue of Toyota Trails. I am ready to do a POTM thread, currently Montyorpenn is signed up for March POTM.

Sounds good! I'll get the POTM thread started...
I cleaned the snow off, started it, warmed it up to temperature, and pulled it into the garage to adjust the valves. I dusted off the 46mm crank pulley socket I had ordered months ago just for this job after researching for the correct size. When I test fit it, it was way too big. I tried a 30mm socket and it almost fit. I'm thinking I need a 31 - 33 mm socket, which I don't have. Bummer. I'm guessing that maybe the original pulley and nut were changed out when the power steering pump was installed for the saginaw.
I took the piggy for a spin with both girls. They grinned ear to ear as we cruised down the road!
Fun is had in/at 55!

Finally really fixed it. When I plugged the hole in the intake manifold with the brake bleeder screw, I must have misplaced the brass fitting that used to go there. So i had to get another one of those. Then, needed another 3 foot length of 1/8" nylon vacuum tubing...so I got that. Then, put it all together in the parking lot.
Did someone say parking lot? That reminds me, one of my favorite things to do in a parking lot is load up the lugs of my Toyo M/Ts with a nice, thick, sticky mud...then pull slowly out into traffic and wait for the too-fast BMW to pull up on my rear bumper and honk his horn. That's when I punch it (as well as one can punch a 2F) and shed a bunch of mud and watch Mr. BMW drop waaay back.
Love doing that.
Vacuum gauge reads same as always. Not sure why I even need one.
worked on the 60 axle housing that was originally going to go under the pickle, but will now live under my bros pig...it got some sexy new redline big ass brakes.
Adjusted the valves. 2F now runs smoooooth.
Needed a 1 1/4" (32mm) socket to turn my crank.

i showed it to a potential buyer.
I bled the clutch, drove into a snow bank, and took a pic.
