i new i would have one again one day . So when i turned 19 i bought a 1977 FJ40 for $3200 bucks ,with a fiberglass
one piece front end ,header and holly 350 . which i promptly rolled 8 months later righting it off .i fell asleep rolled it on the highway at about 65-70 MPH and walked away, good thing for the full cage .which in turn led me through a few more cruisers .until i am where i am today .a mix and match of pieces from all my cruisers over the years. here we go. starting with the before . __________________ Jake S.
