SILVER Star
a Toyota V8 that was made perfectly for FJ40 resto's, complete with perfect cooling and a meaner sounding exhaust note.
Don't they have this already? It's called the Chevy SBC 350?

I think you can get a few of those things.-Darth Vader helmet light (a.k.a soft top courtesy light)
-pocket inspection light
-new OE replica bolts - recessed head, captured washers, the whole 9
-full wiring harnesses (especially for later model Cruisers)
-15x8, 16x7 and/or 16x8 wheels that can fit stock hubcaps
-fuse block covers
-a lot of the old Conferr stuff - fold and tumble seat, storage box for between the frame rails (I don't need it, just think it would be cool if it was still available), etc.
-OE reinforcement bracket for stock bumper to carry winch
-OE center console
-reproduction OE center console that's lockable (Tuffy style - I think I saw someone on MUD do this - very cool)
-later FJ40 factory p/s return line
-HAI shield that mounts on exhaust pipe (plus an aftermarket one that mounts on headers)
-Barn doors that fit later model tubs
-Tailgates that look OE (i.e. recessed instead of flat sheet)
Not going to read thru the whole thread but was the latch for the barn doors mentioned? I know it seems at the very least the knob you pull up to release the pin is gone. Not sure who made it but I have the whole setup I bought from a little vender in Oregon that could be used as sample. Pretty sure there is a market for these. I've never checked but believe I read where they are no longer available from Toyota.
old school arb bumper... for 40....
Isnt someone making a reproduction? Thought I saw them somewhere.
By the primer red paint they look like other items I seen from Ehsan in Pakistan. If that is where they are coming from not sure when more would be available. If anyone knows of another source I would like to know. Up into 63 the hard top models require two, one for each door. So just for two cruisers I could use four.
I am trying to coordinate a vintage ARB repro that looks like this.
I will update with details as I get them.
Any pictures of this?
All the 10, 11, 12 and 14mm sockets that seem to dissapear every time I work on the cruiser![]()
