I like it, but what I want is the skateboard so I can build my own.

I still don’t get why the vestigial fake grille?

I had a ‘67 Toyota FJ-40 ragtop/doors, white. One bored afternoon I zebra striped it, which made it a cop target in ‘70s Cali.

Petrol or diesel, factiry roo bars, snorkels,

Scotty, I said beam me UP,
