____________________________________________________________________

I`m lurking here for a while,

great site, great community.
Bought my BJ43 brand new in 1980, still own this car.(completely stock, except the tyres)

Hello from a misplaced German

Hello Peter.

Welcome to MUD. I could have written something in German, but it would have been difficult as I don't write it too often.

My family originates from Hamburg but immigrated to Canada in 1966. Still speak German at home though.

Nice to see the 43 and 45. Where did you find the 45? Is there more kicking around? I have family still there, so getting one and shipping it could be an option . . . . then again, my wife says that I really don't need another. I guess she's somewhat right.

Welcome, Peter.

Don't see too many 43s--could you post a few more pictures--maybe with the sides down?

Interesting protection for the front parking lamps--are those original 1980, or after market?

Did you add the rear roll bar from a 40, or did it come with your truck?

Cheers !

Hi,

sorry upload doesn`t work (Upload Errors)

got this from mud,

may be, that`s the reason, I can`t upload more pics at the moment.

if you search a 43, go to France, there you can find some.
In Germany 43 are extremely rare ( never came to Germany),
bought mine in Belgium.

Servus
Georg,
that`s great,
thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu !!!
Your german is not rusty.
Think I need some parts for my carb ( overhaul set)
& Brake Wheel Cylinders for my FJ45.
can`t get those cylinders here.
Shipping is expensive
Cheers
Peter

PS. Nun einige Sätze in deutsch, damit du es nicht vergisst.
Wir haben schon diverse Reisen in die Staaten unternommen ( letzte allerdings schon ca.10 Jahre her)
Sind immer in die USA geflogen, haben einen Mietwagen genommen und haben uns dann dieses großartige Land angeschaut.
Staaten die wir besucht haben ( manche öfter):
Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana( New Orleans), New Mexico, Arizona, California, Hawaii ( Big Island, Maui, Honululu), Bahamas.
Baja California ( Mexico) sind wir ebenfalls von Tijuana im Norden bis nach Cabo San Lucas im Süden mit dem Mietwagen gefahren.
Alles großartige Reisen, man vergisst keine Minute dieser Reisen.

sers peter.
i can definetly get you the carb kit; i'm pretty sure i have some spare 45 wheel cylinders as well. shipping will be expensive but can be done.......


baja was one of my favorite trips as well. i got the chance to be on a pit crew 2 years ago. unforgettable!

sounds like you guys need to plan a trip to california. maybe for next years' "fj45 run"?!

Thank`s again
