I have one of those, but have not yet been brave enough to reveal my weakness (just in the event my daughter noticed her Dad has flittered away her patrimony!).
Amazingly detailed!
PROPS to your Lady!

Re: "The Nomad" my 84 sr5
Thanks guys, it was an amazing find by my lady. I can't bring myself to pull it out of the box but from what I can tell even the underside is accurately detailed. It's almost an exact match to my full sized just missing the two tone dark brown.
Bailey- she found it on Amazon, search under collectables instead of toys, she said it was the only one on there at the time.

Nice, Timothy! Red is one of the livery colors Toyota always uses.
And what degreaser did you use!? That's amazing!

But...did you try hitting it with a hammer?

Re: "The Nomad" my 84 sr5
Lannvouivre- Toyota red is the best, I plan to have as many red accents as possible, I used Gunk brand foaming degreaser, it advertises that you spray it on then hose it down to clean, my oil build up in the engine bay and bell housing was too heavy for it to be that easy. It went more like: Degreaser, hose down, degreaser, wipe down, degreaser, hose down, degreaser, wipe down, degreaser, and hose down hahaha, but I had build like cake frosting it was bad. Love your signature, reminds me of traveling around the west coast with my friends in a pair of 80's westafalias, three months of mobbing around and every morning one of the westies' starters would need to be hit with a hammer to get it going, or jumped, or compression started. But I learned that if you intend to travel in a VW, take a hammer...and another VW

The hammer is my favorite diagnostic tool.

Re: "The Nomad" my 84 sr5
they have to do it on Tesla wearing fire proof suits....
Tesla has some 'splaining to do...this happens more often than reported, they pay off the owners to keep it quite. Firefighters have to have special training for electric and hybrid cars or their instructions are to stand back and let it burn...even if there are passengers trapped inside.
