Bump - The swap meet should be great along with the food. Walking through his shop sure gives ideas on new mods to do.

If anyone needs FJ60 parts, PM me and I can pull them in the morning. I was going to haul the whole thing but I decided it isn't as mobile as I was thinking.

Man, was this a good time or what?!? Woo hoo!

Great peeps, great chow, and Christo's shop looks very groovy...

I drove down with FJ Ben in the 40 - just took the top off yesterday!

My buddy Tim convoyed with us - he drove his 40 that is for sale in my dig line.

dmaddox (aka "Ragman") came up from C-Springs, Ige was there, Nakman, Rezarf, Sgt013, and many more!

Good times, good times...

one of the rising sun members showed up in his "new", purchased from the original owner, 1968 fj40 with all the manuals, tools, and early caps. he was a pickup guy...he's now come to the light

we tried to convert another pickup guy, but the rust was so bad, as soon as he sat in it, the cruiser rusted away.
