Figure I'd throw in a pix of the 40...here is some info..PO bought it from California 5 years ago (it's true what I have heard, dry climate=minimal rust damage!!), she didn't need too much work, fixed a few things and drove her around on and off...she is mostly stock (90%) with a few minor mods, original F engine and carb., roll bar, front and jump seats need to be repaired or replaced (no biggie), three on the tree (I am going to have to get use to this), frame and chasis virtually rust free, body is great condition no major rust through areas or rot, just some minor, minor surface rust and two areas where bondo was used but not b/c of rust/rot but to repair a very minor bang up, currently swapping out the front drum axle for a front disc axles..ran into a snag with the tie rod but got one from Juan in Raleigh and it should work after some modification...after that we will go to the rear...already have a rebuilt rear axle that needs brackets, rotors and calipers to complete the swap...slowly but surely we will get Old Yeller to URE next year...thanks for looking...Roger

love the split hood and the round turn signals....I am going to have a split hood on the 72 hybrid I am restoring now. I love that classic look

ienjoysocks · 11-26-07, 02:09 PM

that hood is so cool! not a member, but i might be before too long, so here's mine.

If this shouldnt be here, just pm me and ill take this down until i am an actual member.

dukebluerog · 12-02-07, 10:17 AM

thanks....working on getting the rear axle disc brake ready and hopefully up and going for next year's events at URE...R

bbalbano · 12-29-07, 02:59 PM

Been awhile since this post was replied to so I figure I'd do it the honor. Just got my cruiser on the road again. Wanna know how to meet some of yall and learn about this thing you all call 'wrenching' and maybe go to a few meetin's. I'm plannin' a resto but don't really know where to start. New to cruisin' and wrenchin', but know enough to get me by.

When is the next event?

GarnerFJ40 · 02-18-08, 02:32 PM

Meetings are the second sunday each month, so 09MAR2008. Place to be determined from El Presidente...

smkymntn · 02-26-08, 07:44 AM

She needs some love but is so rust free and happy to be in the mountains of NC.

uzj100 · 02-26-08, 07:55 AM

That is a great looking 60!

uzj100 · 04-15-08, 02:15 PM

I have had this 2000 since December 2006.

96Cruiser13 · 04-17-08, 01:07 PM

bad pic, but new linex and 285/75's

k_os · 04-19-08, 12:04 PM

Well here's a couple more since my last update.....
I've added 285/70s, armored up underneath and a 2.5" lift, with some rockrails and that red thing up top. Front tube bumper and winch coming late summer.

just got those skids.. love em

had to show em off a bit

edit: and this is up at uwharrie last weekend before the monsoon

BigRed08 · 05-12-08, 03:29 PM

Finally got some pics. Nothing exciting yet, but the summer aint over!

krzyabncanuck · 05-12-08, 04:45 PM

I remember that 62. Looks good still.

southerncruiser62 · 05-12-08, 07:33 PM

she sure does, glad to see it still in NC

BigRed08 · 05-12-08, 10:40 PM

i plan on keeping it for a long time. Its cool to be in contact with both previous owners! just outta curiosity, what kinda mods had you done? i havent asked spence, i wasnt sure if you guys had done anything to it then put it back stock to sell it. it would be cool to see pics of it when you owned it.

Just looking for a little direction. I think i wanna do a spring over. I'm also in search of FJ60 military vehicle pics. Looking for some olive drab or desert camo inspiration as well.

the SOA is a def.....the paint is a maybe, im still on the fence about changing the color.

romaniacruiser · 06-18-08, 09:12 PM

new to Land Cruisers, but not to offroading, previously owned a red Jeep Cherokee. soon to become ONSC Club member.

I have a question though, I did not get a chance to look through all these pages with the owners, but does anyone know by any chance what memeber lives down the street from me on Eastchester in High Point and owns 2, maybe 3 FJ80's? I see him all the time and I've always wanted to me up.

BigRed08 · 06-19-08, 07:51 AM

Looks like your not having any trouble adjusting to the terrain! is that tellico?

southerncruiser62 · 06-19-08, 12:29 PM

Good looking FJ Cruiser, I believe that is Uwharrie...

BigRed08 · 06-19-08, 10:59 PM

the last pic looks like URE, but the first pic looks like the river crossing at Tellico. If thats URE, can you still get to that spot? and how? i dont recognize it.

Thanks! Yes it is Uwharrie.

"the last pic looks like URE, but the first pic looks like the river crossing at Tellico. If thats URE, can you still get to that spot? and how? i dont recognize it."

The first two are in Tellico ( trail#4 [Faine's Ford] & up off of trail #2 at 4,275 ft. high) and the last pic is in Uwharrie.

rutbeer · 06-25-08, 04:38 PM

That first pic is a dead ringer for Fain's ford crossing at Tellico.
