Cool thread. Keep it up!

Been a while since I posted. I have sold nearly everything but a Toyota Landcruiser, packed up and moved to Manila, Philippines!

I have always loved Things. Never owned one but growing up, got my start on working on cars with a few Type 1s and a Van or two. :cheers:

Sweet. Now that's a way to get someone interested!:grin:

I may have found one but if someone here has one let me know. Mine has not arrived yet.

Welcome. I am in Rome. Quite a few members in this area :cheers:

Another one in the south east. Welcome

Need something else. My EM brake handle is badly in need of replacing. The adjusting handle is frozen and the adjusting rod in the handle is rusted away. Lemme know if anyone has one available.

I certainly see where you are coming from tho. All "hobbies" (if it is ok to use that as a general term) have their purists and I respect them all. When I worked on air cooled VWs and saw someone destroying one that was rare and had a good body to make a roadster or a Baja or something it made...

Seems like there are quite a few of you guys up in this neck.

I fully understand. But think of it this way: I am giving it a new life as an expedition trailer and saving it from rotting in the woods as a firewood carrier.:-D

I scored! I remembered a couple months ago I drove past Quarter Ton & Military up in Rising Fawn, GA. The owner is Matt Fox. he has an Ebay store and regardless what you think of Ebay stores and what they have done to the used parts industry, I have met Matt twice and both times we had some nice...

I am in Rome. Good to hear I would not be shunned after fabbing a tailgate in mine:wink: I hope to have it back together by then but will not have the expedition part done for a while.

Thanks. To this point I had just been internet shopping. I will call them.

Post #2 for me :D I have been working on a 1966 Johnson Furnace M416 and am in need of spring seals and retainers as well as one front greasable spring bolt. Any help or a point in the right direction to a vendor would be appreciated. HH
