This is my LC Before my rebuild. Not the rustiest LC but I put more american metal on it then the factory japanes metal that primary build this Beast.

By the way... thanks japeness with the good little metal pipe that go directly in the frame for making it rust proof one side with the oil running out of this pipe. thinking about putting it on the other side for the other 20 years for oiling the other side.

Frame pic of mine, thought it might qualify for a rusty rig.
1985 BJ70.

Where's the rest of the truck? Is that all what's left of it..??

Not the rustiest rig but not lacking in rust either in all the usual places and there is a lot more rust still hiding under the bog from years of bodgey repairs.

i'll cross my fingers and nock on wood before i get pulled over with a vi.

She's a little rusty. chek out these body mounts. prevents the pacman- ing of the frame and body when i first bought her.

Eric Winkworth · 07-03-09, 10:23 AM

it's amazing what some oil can prevent

cruisedeisel · 07-03-09, 01:45 PM

i bought this truck 2 years back for a grand, canadian. well the body has gone down hill a bit, well it was restored once already. fiberglass all over the place. the truck has only got better, i mean as in "beatabillity"

all i've put in is an HONEST i repeat HONEST $3200, that includes two other cruisers i've bought and the original price of $1000, parts and i'm turbo'd, price of tires included too. $3200 is what most people pay for their turbos and it been a daily driver since day one.

and don't lie to your self or anybody else. because every cruiser head usually has an addiction to spend alot of money and work obsesively on their truck. me, mininmum amount of work, maximum amount of driving equals good times.

But cheers! and i might got take a dip in ye ol oil lake with my peice of shit.
