It's the Land Cruiser that made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs.

We recently visited family in Eastern Oregon. I was able to "disappear" one afternoon. Love me some BLM land.

I looked all over for a part number, didn't see any on the tag or on the actual material. I wonder if it got thrown in a dryer or something and that shrank it up. Odd that it came with instructions for the right number, but that the top was way too small. Who knows. Hopefully can get a refund...

Hey man, yeah that was just a typo on my other post. Mine is a Bestop with the same tag and whatnot. I'm just wondering if it for a different rig and not the fj40. I've emailed the seller hoping to return it. At this point I'd just buy a brand new one and know that I am getting the right thing...

Alright. Just got home and took some pics and measured. Fromt he front of my windshield channel down the middle of the top to the back, I got 45 inches. I'm pretty sure I have the channel installed correctly. Also, I found the paperwork for the ebay purchase and it has the paper instructions...

Yeah I thought that was possible, but the item number says it works for fj40s and the CJs that were around the same era. The seller had said it was in in garage for about a year, not being used. Is it possible at all that the material would shrink up? No clue, but it does feel like it is too...

Hey man, thanks for the reply. Yeah, yours looks like how all the pictures show as far as how much past the roll bar the tops should stretch. So did you not use the plastic loops on the straps to tighten? Almost looks like you tied to the spare tie mount. Not sure. I know that top is...

Hey everyone. I have been doing some searching and haven't found a solution yet to my problem so I thought I'd ask. I recently bought a slightly used Bestop Bikini top for my 76 fj40 off ebay. The seller sent me the top and the footman loops, and I had to go to the 4wd store and buy a...

Dude, props on a sweet truck. Those seats look super comfortable.

@Duke, Nice man, grats on your recent purchase as well. I actually had been looking in Oregon and Washington for a few months. Test drove a lot of cruisers, but the ones I looked at didn't have the stock motor and thats what I wanted to start out with. I found this one in Samamish, Washington...

Hey guys, here are some of the interior pics I promised. It's pretty darn clean. Hope you like. Thanks.

Cool man, yeah it's gonna be fun times. Glad you finally got one as well!

Mattcamp, we were on some trails off of hw 8 a little past Vernonia. Lot of spots to go shooting/wheeling. I'm a total noob so it was a good spot to get a feel for it. dcamp, I'll try and take some pics of the interior and post them up tonight. Thanks guys.

Haha. Believe me, there were a few I almost bought that would have needed the 2 years work (which I would have enjoyed), but I couldn't get my better half on board with that idea:doh: I had almost given up on finding an affordable one when I stumbled upon this rig. I'm excited to get some...

That guy was suposed walk farther into the woods... I can't be held responsible ;)
