Yeah take the CRUISING off. It reminds me of the 80s when people used to put
4X4 in 4 foot block letters on their rigs!
Great 80 though! I'm green with envy!

YES definately take them off - it will look much better imo.
* I got my first ticket two days ago (going 68km/h in a 50 zone - crappy) I had a passenger. The cop walked up to her window and began quoting the clocked speed - I interjected that I hadn't yet adjusted the speedo for the tire size without trying to make an excuse.. he looked at her and suggested she place some decals over the speedo and then asked her for her DL and registration.. she began to dig in the glove box directly in front of her when he finally clued it. He said nothing, walked around to my side and began all over again. "Do you know why I stopped you today?"
We had a good chuckle but it still cost $138 bucks dammit.
Nice rig btw!

too bad about the decals...without them it's just going to look like any old white 80. if i was buying the truck (a fellow can dream, can't he?), i would insist that you leave them on.
but it looks like I'm in the minority here, so do what ya gotta do.

Robin,
I like them but the masses don't. I have had many many emails talkign about the decals...
in real life they look nice, not as bold as they look in the picture. the decals will come off on the 28th of feb when the rsut proofing and final detailing is completed.
till then if someone wants the truck with the decals left on he has a month to make up his minds...

first some background, Doug has appraised well over 200 JDM units in the last 4 years including almost 50 of mine (since i found out about him).
on this particular unit i told him the selling price and his response was " you are underselling this one". i left it up to him to put a value on it...
i got the appraisal report in today...
$40,000 .... holy crap!! he must feel it is in nice shape...

I love the decals on this rig!!!!!!!.....they give the Land cruiser an identity....its unique, and not the same old stuff that you see on the road everyday. I'm in the market for a hzj (as soon as i can convince the old lady that we NEED one).....decals are a MUST.

LAVA, not to steal Wayne's thunder here but he has an HZJ73 listed on his site which, by the photos, looks amazing... Not to mention its coming from one of the best in the business, you know the trucks tops... Just my .02 cents... and no affiliation with Wayne, just want to buy one of his trucks from him... Hopefully sooner rather than later... Hint Hint Wayne
