1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

He ran out of shit to talk about so he's tried to rebrand like 3 times now. He's always been kind of a crack head lol

 

Went to the junkyard, she's properly upmarket now

 

Snuck by the new house, looks like my island and cabinets are in as well as the flooring!

 

A fresh 4Runner in the junkyard today. I got some respectably clean (and not blown out) bucket seats, two lighted ignition rings, the fancy rear view mirror with the sunglass holder, and a few other odds and ends.

The yard's new website is ugly, but an upside is that it gives access to the VIN. I can plug that into https://www.toyodiy.com and see how the vehicle was equipped before going. I knew this one had an Oak interior before I left the house.

Also saw an '80s Escort GT.

And this sweet '80s Toyota flatbed. (first pic from the yard's website, second pic from today).

Even got a van pic in there for Jimmy

Did you stock up on fuses?

 

Is that your go to? Mine is stainless steel hose clamps for some reason


I like how from the time the front photo of that truck was taken, to the back portion, the side doors of the van have been sold gotta keep them vans alive on the road!

 

Shit, hose clamps are a good idea lol

 

And then you get fishing tackle boxes to sort them!

And then they sit on your shelf and almost never get used

 

Yeah I have mine sorted in a tackle box style organizer already

Lots of my spare toyota hardware is stored that way for sanity sake

Geez man. Smoke in the cab is never a good sign.

 

Nice!!! Black looks good! You can never have too big an island!

 

"Toyota says it's normal"

 

Yeah but at least you don't have to dig for them for an hr, not find them, then go to store to buy, then find them once you get done with the install. That is a daily story with me. Been really trying to get a proper organization tactic for everything.

 

Ewww QuikTrip... Is your dash flocked?

 

Got my frame almost done today. Wish I owned like 10 more screw jacks. I was making shit out of wood and using all kinds of bs to make it happen.

 

That shit happens with the most random of things; snap ring plier tips, or a specific torque wrench, or some other tool. I go buy one, only to find it when I don't need it

Then I wonder why I have 3 complete tool sets and more growing.
