Cruiser spotted, not a spotted cruiser.

I was northbound on hwy 41 in Neenah, going over CTY HWY II about 6:30pm last night and caught a glimpse of an FJ60 or 62 westbound under the highway. Looked to be a stocker, dark blue or black. Anybody know this person/cruiser?

spotted a green '69 fj40 for sale in the center of Wautoma in front of an archery shop. Stopped in and inquired, he wants 12k. Says it is a restored vehicle.

Says it had 49k miles on it while the odomoter said 17k.
It is right on hwy 21.

That has been there for years. That's the old Ford dealer building by DQ and Culvers right? Restored, maybe a while ago. Worth 12k? NO

guy was a jackass. The green color was NOT the right green. He had a mack truck emblem cut in half, and half on each apron, plus alot of other "bling" that I don NOT like.

But as he said, it was or is a restored vehicle, not knowing I have 3, and have had as many as 4. What an ass.

MEh, small town lunatic. I guess if he likes it, more power to him.

My mom called and asked me what I had in the garage at home. I told her it was the FJ62. She said a guy down the highway (13/73 outside of Wisconsin Rapids) just brought two home and one was for sale. I need to go home for a weekend.

Saw a 70 southbound on 41 on Friday evening. I was in my 62 sitting in a rare hwy 41 parking lot.

I think I saw the telltale orange windshield sticker from EAA>

My cruiser time is lacking drastically. It's clean, ready to go (when the trans acts normal) and loaded for something. I hope to get in the woods after hunting season.
