I need to fully scratch build a replacement harness, so this is really good to know. I wonder if he's got other connectors as well. I'd like to keep things original looking.
What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

Yes @Coolerman has an amazing assortment of OE type connectors plus factory-correct wire. He will hook you up with whatever you need to build your harness.
@CruiserTrash Check out parts of this great webpage he has. It will lead you to many things
Using my 50 year old Navy training, if it doesn't move-paint it, if it does move-wait till it stops and paint it. Rebuilding the engine, sand blast the frame and paint it.
My only complaint about painting everything black is it takes a little longer to notice when you have a leak. Otherwise, great work! I need to wire brush and paint my frame soon.
Anyone know the thread pitch of the cyl head where the temp sensor goes in? Mine had a pipe thread fitting in it and didn’t leak but I don’t expect that’s correct. My sensor is about half the size of the Hope so I assume it’s missing something,
Edit — this is what I need.

I saw that one, but is it only for Holley sniper installs?

Having a little fun w the 40 for the summer........ making it my fishing rig. Nothing permanent here, a vinyl wrap and "hood ornament" going into existing holes in the hood. Also have installed an irish tweed head liner that I'm loving, but have not taken any great pics yet of that. Console is the tweed fabric, that pic taken prior to the headliner install.

Finally getting to this ‘78. Turning out very nice from the frozen state it once was…..
That is a stock bumper. I cut the slot. I like the way it came out.
I am not 100% sure but when it arrived and I was screwing around with fitting the part… I THINK I grabbed the stock sending unit and screwed it into that fitting …drop them a note to confirm
Lovely looking rig... how do you find the AT4's...any better than the AT3's..
You’ll need the correct year sending unit. Pic below is a 76 sending unit w/adapter, purchased as I recall from @ToyotaMatt.
