Re: 1st Gen tailgate ??

Ok, maybe I'm a little too uptight, but THIS IS NOT FIRST GEN!  Dunno if it was the Stout or the little boxy hilux, but I'm pretty sure they were bringin trucks in in the very early 60s, if not earlier.  I know there were a few years there where the only toy imported was the fj, but there were toy trucks in the states well before 79.  Sorry to rant, and nothing personal, but I see so many people refer to that style as first gen, and recently another guy said he thought toyota started making trucks in 79.  And have you tried auto wreckers?  I've seen new gates sittin in their storage areas before.  I've also seen the rare new gate on ebay,       Nate

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!
