Sal at the wheel and on the skinny pedal. Unfortunately I flipped the ph sideways but it’s still cute. He was beyond thrilled.
 
Fired up the 60 out of necessity yesterday. Vehicle juggling. She ran well and still makes me smile. Unfortunately my now 6 hives have me very busy from swarm control, equipment building and making sure hives are queen-rite. It’s been a whirlwind the last few months w/ them and my regular life w/ kid and a partner w/ his own vehicle’s engine being rebuilt. Hard to keep things straight. Kid turned 8. Puppy isn’t ours.. they all have deposits on them thank god! They belong to a woman who runs an unschooling nature camp kid is enrolled in for a few weeks. Talk about an oxytocin rush!
And hey my truck needs new speakers, whose go some really cheap ones kicking around they don’t need anymore?
New used passenger window regulator in w/ rubber and metal channel installed Fri. Managed to not actually dissolve to tears in frustration doing it infront of my son. Finally after too many minutes I pulled the window out of the door and got them together them was able to slide both together back down into the door.. but a few minutes of crazy was enough. Dared my child to say ‘if Jason was here we’d…’ haha! No way kiddo, Mamas got this!
Three queens (daughters) emerged from an original my son dubbed Lamborghini. They are all proving to be kick-ass! This one is still name-less. I only name for note taking. Camero, Lamborghini, Bugatti, Sacky, and two still needing names. My child is very much into cars and trucks now. Seriously adorable.

I may have a few used speaker pairs - some Clarions and some stock FJ60. Or are you looking for something newer/better?

I bought these new for my '86 FJ60, not expensive at all - $34.49 a pair:

Amazon product ASIN B00SAY8370
Anything that plays is good. I’m not picky and definitely not rich. What’s your PayPal? I don’t recall. What would I use in the rear? Right now I have this stupid suitcase subwoofer and woofer set from the 80’s that take up tons of space. Part of the problem is I don’t even know what to look for… kinda clueless. Just want someone to tell me. ;)
 
I’ve only taken one frame of newly built virgin comb. Added it as a 1/2” strip into Bugatti on 5/13 and it was fully built, filled and capped by 6/1. That’s amazingly fast. Most likely a mix of Tulip Poplar and Tupelo honey.
And the little puppies the first week we were at camp… 5 weeks old and were (are) amazingly precious. I jumped right in the little pen and it seemed like they all gravitated to my lap. Heaven!

Puppies and Honey!

Life is good ....
 
Huh…. No wonder she’d been a bit gutless! Spotted this last night. Crazy! Glad I had my stock carb to rob from.

Brooklyn CT Antique Truck Show. I was not at all thinking I’d put mine in it but for $10 why not?!

Keeping us hanging is not good. What fabulous prize did you win? Best in show? Most Patina? BadAzzery Award? Inquiring minds want to know.

Nothing. I didn’t bother to register. And I was a dummy and didn’t pop the hood either. I let sheepishness take over! Next time I won’t be so shy.

Gar! I need to get those letters attached! And pinstripes to blend in the front valance. Too many things on my to do list!
 
Add some extra wires and vacuum hoses. None of us really know what they go to anyway.
 
The Clarions I have are too deep to fit in the doors, same with the 4-Runner speakers. And I only have one FJ60 speaker. Sorry.
Np thanks for checking. What IS the size I’d need?
 
Driving the truck full time while this mouse body dries out in my Mazda blower motor box. I got it dissembled as far as I can go… not entirely sure I can get the cage off the middle pin. Anyone has any tips please speak up.

hey felicity, i'm going ahead n assuming it's already soaked with penetrating oil. looking at it, theoretically it should slide off the shaft with the cir-clip gone. try preloading some tension on the squirrel cage n gently tapping on the shaft with punch n hammer. good luck
