Which dash pad is that? Looking for something like that to cover my cracked one.
I got it off of eBay Australia. My rig is RHD, and that was the only place I could find a RHD carpet dash pad.
 
The aftermarket clear side markers on my land cruiser are falling apart. I ordered some oem replacements from partsouq. I don't know how they do it. They shipped from Dubai 3 days ago and I have them. I ordered a fancy catbox that shipped today. It'll be here in a week.
Yup. 3 or 4 orders now, and yet to be disappointed with Partsouq.
 
I installed a Huracan fab tailgate hatch today. I love it!!! More pics in my build thread.

I love the idea of tailgate storage! However I hate the idea of cutting up my tailgate. I am so torn. I've considered the huracan, but may just go with a MountainHatch tailgate cover instead to avoid cutting up the stock tailgate.

My first order was different. The part arrived at their facility broken. So they had to redo my order. They never told me and for like 2 weeks i was waiting. Once that order shipped inhad the parts in like 2 days. But this one was flawless.
 
Picked up a clean, stock 1997 LX. Triple Locked. It's only lived in CA, NV and TX. A few cosmetic issues to clean-up at my leisure but well-maintained and rust free except for a bad rear hatch glass install. This one will be my long-term Cruiser to tinker with. My 2nd locked 80 and my 4th Land Cruiser. I still own a built 2005 100. Shipping to me next week. Feels good to be back in the 80 forum in addition to the 100 forum.

I thought your name looked familiar when I watched this go down on Cars and Bids. Great win!
 
Finally put my collector plates on it.
 
Quad headlight and grille swap. Received a lot of help from @TheMU to get all the correct parts, appreciate it!

And quick adjustments of the LED 4x6s. Very happy with the output.

LOVE this! Would you be willing to share parts/links list?? Much appreciated!
 
Been fighting a fuel issue. Replaced the pump, FPR, EFI relay and inspected (best I could) harness by EGR to no avail. This part is the worst but I know @Jboyd will fix me up right!

The idea of tailgate storage is great, but I wish they would incorporate flush hinges.
When you put your cutting board it's always un-level because of those.
I agree. Thankfully I have other plans for the cutting board in the near future.
 
Cutting board with a slot for the hinges? Might actually be kinda nice to keep it somewhat in place while cutting
 
My 80 didn't come with a rear wiper from the PO, but I could still hear the motor when the switch was turned on. Free 12V in the rear wagon door! Time for some cooktop lights:

Also finished sanding and oiling the replacement stock for my Marlin 336A. This thing is from the 1980s (bought it next to new due to a story about a deceased estate and it being left in a horse float for decades), back when marlins were made with passion and attention to detail. The bluing is deep and immaculate, not like the parkerized finish they pass off these days. Anyway they haven't made this style of rifle in a long time so the replacement stocks don't fit (only one barrel band) so I modified one with a little block of black walnut on the foreend. Wood doesn't match but I like the look. I have my brother in law to thank for snapping the last stock when he slipped and fell onto it on a hunting trip.

Classic American rifle!!!!

I inherited a marlin 39a from my dad that was made in 1949. It is the most accurate .22lr I have ever shot.
