New FJ45 owner

bkfj40 · 11-06-07, 04:21 AM

come on...post up some pictures...

You know who you are. I think it is getting picked up on Monday isn't it?

I think it has found a good home - assuming your wife drives it instead of you

Gotta be Bad to the Bone Bob!

greytandy · 11-06-07, 09:45 AM

If it's Bob, he damn sure better post pics NOW!

76FJ40 · 11-06-07, 11:59 AM

Who me?

Cruiserhead05 · 11-06-07, 12:34 PM

Blue77FJ40 · 11-06-07, 01:05 PM

Bubba, you're such a tease.

76FJ40 · 11-06-07, 07:12 PM

I don't have it yet ...

Blue77FJ40 · 11-07-07, 06:16 AM

Details! and we want 'em NOW!

John Smith · 11-07-07, 08:33 AM

Removable top?

bkfj40 · 11-07-07, 09:54 AM

I know you don't have it yet....that is why it is so much fun to let the cat out of the bag

I hope it ends up with a hula boy on the dash - then we can make fun of you when you get to drive it

Blue77FJ40 · 11-07-07, 10:30 AM

So, by virtue of this purchase, are we witness to the actual conversion of a non-wheeling wife to a wheeling wife???? That's a pretty uncommon occurrence and if so, you should be congratulated.

76FJ40 · 11-07-07, 11:40 AM

Lylia surprised me at CMCC by coming in the first place, then by wanting to drive, and finally by saying she wanted a Cruiser of her own. This phenomenon was repeated at the Fall Crawl which I interpreted to be a sign from the Cruiser Gods to buy another Cruiser. I'm a lucky man!

I need to ask Keena where he bought the Hula Boy in the Frakencruiser.

Blue77FJ40 · 11-07-07, 12:28 PM

So, it will be wheeled, but only at green level? How will you get both cruisers to RC?

forrunner · 11-07-07, 01:37 PM

Congradulations on the new addition to the family, to both you and Lylia.

And Blessed be the Cruiser Gods.

76FJ40 · 11-07-07, 07:41 PM

I told Lylia that she would have to drive her own Cruiser to RC. I don't expect it to see many trails, but you never know.

H2o · 11-08-07, 02:59 PM

Wow.... congratz...

76FJ40 · 11-08-07, 04:10 PM

Sebastien,

Give me a call tomorrow and you can come get the wheel cylinders since you spoke up first.

76FJ40 · 11-11-07, 07:27 PM

Jeff's 45 has a new home -

76FJ40 · 11-11-07, 07:33 PM

It's a '66 production date titled as a '67. Removable top, '74 F, 4 speed tranny & xfr, front disc brakes, Saginaw steering, waiting on a rebuilt carb, ...

Sebastien - the 45 has a leaking wheel cylinder, you should have picked them up sooner!

greytandy · 11-11-07, 08:21 PM

Nice score Bob.

VA.CRUISER · 11-11-07, 11:07 PM

So Bob when you picking it up ? Are you trailering home ? Maybe if you're good Lylia will let you drive it sometime

bkfj40 · 11-12-07, 07:41 AM

so when is it's maiden voyage to the GWNF?

bk

76FJ40 · 11-12-07, 09:00 AM

We picked it up yesterday and trailered it home because it's still waiting on a rebuilt carb. I don't expect to get it out before Spring. It needs the carb replaced, body work and paint, tires, and some TLC before its debut.

Jakes40 · 11-12-07, 11:14 AM

Nice score!

Chris

fjman · 11-12-07, 04:13 PM

I remember seeing it at the Pig Run. Sweet truck. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

So, is it going to be stock(ish)? Or are you Ryan, and Matt going to make it a trail beast? I know that's how you guys roll.

The 45 will stay pretty much stock; it's too nice to turn into a trail rig and its 116" wheelbase is not exactly trail friendly. Oh, and Lylia would kill me!
