Ok, I see pics of quite a few early 60 Patrols with the black front grill, black headlight rings, door grabs, etc...
was the blacked out trim an original option? Or are a bunch of owners out there just doing a big Dream Car Garage styling copy-cat exercise...?
Que Paso?

The black-out trend was custom, not a factory option.
Beyond any hope for intervention

Well Ok, then I plan to be the first to begin the NEW trend, and I'm going to combine the best aspects of Boque's image, with the best aspects of RP's:
