I've had that hat holder for better than 25 years, it's been in no telling how many trucks of mine.
It's one of those simple pieces of equipment that just work.
Saturday was a nice easy wheeling day with (a lot) of friends. Probably put a solid 250 miles round trip on the truck, but I can’t be sure since the speedometer failed 10 miles from my house.

I know, I was being snarky.
Doing some summer cooling system maintanance and R&D...
Sunday cruise. A couple of moths ago during the pandemic lockdown, someone suggested a weekly cruise down the main street of our town to get out and have some fun. It’s grown to be a large weekly event with everything from super cars to model Ts. But there has only been ONE Land Cruiser! Mine!

- Clean, cut and buff paint
- Align front body panels and eliminate the overbite
- Front end alignment

When one's life long passion is to solve as many of the NLA / Disc. needed parts solutions for the Land Cruiser community as a whole , SWEET moments like this one make it all worth it ! 
Knowing that ALL the 9/72 - 12/78 40 Series owner / operators will NEVER have to worry about securing there flip down style Fuel inlet Door or " Cover " as TOYOTA calls it , ever again for the foreseeable future , and to my astonishment still using a Toyota Genuine Part's NEW Lock & key Cylinder in the process to make this all happen blows me away even now , and leaves a smile on my face
- 69058-69016-R , CYLINDER & KEY SET, FUEL INLET LOCK LIVES Once Again ..........
ROCK ON !

Started finishing up my other 75’.
What vehicle did the shifter come out of? A Toyota 4Runner perhaps?
Looks like an Art Carr or Winters shifter.
Winters Sidewinder Standard Automatic Forward Pattern 4L60E Shifter 177-1.
Pulled the 2H out for a full rebuild
