My new 83' finally on the road

So after a couple minor problems I got a shiny new clutch plate and exhaust put on her and she runs perfectly. And not a moment too soon, that same night it snowed almost a foot.

Yup, gotta get that front marker lit up! They look cool.

Nice truck. I just love 1st gens. I'm glad it's back at it! It's looking good.

Ok so to make you guys happy I got a bulb and went to replace my front marker light. So when i go to take it out of the fender the bulb housing literally crumbles in my hands like something out of an egyptian temple. So now i need to replace this part and Im not sure where to find one. Would toyota still produce this part? Im doubtful of it. Anyone know where to get them? P.S. Took my canopy off yesterday now that it looks like the snow has passed for the year. Looks waaaaaay better now but Im afraid that the next time it rains my box will discintegrate....

I'd try a junkyard. "practically anything you want" thread or something similar. This forum and Marlin Crawler usually have people parting out first gens.
