Lucky escape was a bit naive/ lazy on the security of the car if they want it next time they will have to drag it on a trailer , will hit this hard now security
I know I’m just raging,the amount of work that went into getting the doors and the rest of the body perfect and I mean perfect was unreal ,to get it back the door will need paint and I’ll have to buy a whole set of decals which stupidly expensive
I’ve been using my 62 as a daily after it’s long restoration and came down from work for the drive home to find some low life scum had tried to steal it ,ripped the lock out and smashed the steering column and for some reason put a dent in my upper tailgate , yes I could look at it and say I was...
Hi Michael , I’ve just checked I’ve got the base , the seat material is not torn neither is the piping damaged just the vinyl damaged .
I will get it to our yard in Glasgow by next week on one of our wagons where you can collect, all I ask is you do some good deed for a stranger
regards

Looking at those pics I’d say it’s worth more ( I know it’s what people are prepared to pay ) but the running rusters are fetching 7-10 k ,I’m sorry I missed it .
I have a worn drivers seat base cover in grey with the split in the usual place but a trimmer could use the matching cloth and vinyl to repair the split , you are more than welcome to have it
Evening Gents I’m looking for advice I’m looking to replace my g350d which is my daily driver , there’s nothing taking my fancy apart from a new model G400d which are out of my league, what are the drawbacks to a 76 series mpg , insurance etc ? Thanks in advance
Good luck with the sale and it’s great another one is saved but I would temper the advert as there a few exceptionally good ones out there , there’s a thread of a blue one on here and he’s probably got the best a real peach , but it’s always good to see a 60 rolling again
Toyota Birmingham top team for a main dealer , I take the fj62 there and they charge me cost for parts and £30 per hour labour and they do it so they can help keep old Toyotas on the road , Tom and the team very knowledgeable as they have a few old heads there that worked on them when new
Just a few pics for any one interest after the engine rebuild I decided to swap out the turbo as it was pulling through oil , so the plan is to replace turbo and exhaust 3 inch stainless and run the turbo at 10 psi
Hi Home brew many thanks for the offer stupid me forgot to say it’s for a grey blue interior so it’s a very pale grey , I was going to put a new one it but can’t get anything similar to the original
As the title suggests I’m looking for a piece of roof lining 6 inches square, I have a rip and a small piece missing and it would be a shame to replace it as I can’t find an original one
Cheers
John
Looking for guidance please, I am replacing the turbo on my 62 which has a 2h engine, what air fuel ratio would you suggest be the correct ratio ?
Cheers
Just fitted new springs and shocks as the old ones were completely shot, I fitted the Milner ones a bit firmer than the old ones but happy with the results , it sits a lot better
Cheers for that Andy I tried cruiser world but they were out of stock apart from the lift kit and I didn’t want redneckery stance so I got them as there wasn’t another choice
A big thank you to Milner 4x4 rang up yesterday afternoon looking for shocks for the old girl had them in stock and new front springs very very reasonably priced including delivery landed here before 9.0am great service couldn’t fault them
Cheers for this Andy good advice, it’s only a temporary measure until people have stock back in but no stock due to covid , I may get the originals rebuilt but they are totally shot so need a temp fix
Another job off the list rebuilt front hubs, was going to replace springs but due to covid I can’t source new springs so I’m fitting a second hand pair I have sourced , any recommendations on shocks as they also need replacing ?
