Help with Reassembling BJ42

After several years of hold ups and delays I am now bolting my Landcruiser BJ42 back together. It has been a while since I pulled it apart and some of the bags have deteriorated and all the bolts and screws are in one big mess. It was also partly disassembled when I bought it. Help with bolt and screw location, photos or links to any good rebuild sites would be greatly appreciated. If you like you can email photos directly to me njmauer@tpg.com.au

Had the same Problem
When I did my LJ70 Had all the Bolts seperated in Boxes ,
Took them with the Engine when that was being built, They acid dipped the lot and dumped them in the same Box
Had to work on the Theory if it Fits in the Whole thats were it goes.
Still Wonder were the 10 extra Bolts I have left go
