Went shopping...

Sure, it's a fascinating reading at série4.fr! The splendid HJ47 he saved should have completed her restoration there, did not appear in France though. It is sad to hear that many of these beauties don't have a chance to enjoy a second life in...

Nice encounter with the Cruisers of the Moroccan Military (the whole scenery reminds me Egypt and especially the Sinai peninsula...)! Several years ago you could even encounter these so rare LHD/conduite à gauche HJ47 of the Armée Royale... Safe...

Camped inside the wall of Gara Medouar, such a special place to spend the night. Did not succeed to take a picture but it was the full moon and it was aligned right with the entrance "door" illuminating the place through the door for the...

Pismo Beach. But vehicle is at my storage lot in San Luis Obispo

Where in California?

Found one. Thanks for the leads.

It's at this point that I'm coming in and started to learn to drive the FJ40 ;) Years passed and the FJ got a few different paint but always stayed here. Years after years the FJ40 lost reliability and we only dared using it for very local...

The story of my Alps trip (and the Pyrenees one) were actually published in Toyota Trails, Nov-Dec 2022 (and Nov-Dec 2021). Haha sure thing. My FJ40 is a 1974 built in 10/1973. It was originally sold in France and was actually part of the...

When I did the initial (partial) restoration of my family FJ40 in 2020, the main goal was always to regain the confidence to take it in any distance trip and be ready for any adventure. Since then, in 2021 I took it in a trip across the Pyrenees...

Well, that does $uck. Fender looks unscathed. Trying to rememberize, 4plus front bumper? Think you can persuade the bumper to resume its original attitude? All in volunteering to come out and rid your neighborhood of any and all Elk/Whitetail...

Happy 🦃day mudders. I hope you are surrounded by family and friends.

Happy Thanksgiving to my Mud friends and family 🦃

I did LED and mine are just right now. Not bright, but bright enough. Like yours, this pic makes them look brighter than they really are. Rotating the LIGHTS knob makes a difference too. Congrats on driving it! Looks great and I like the new...

She’s a riot to drive compared to my other cars haha. The cluster isn’t lighting up and it’s impossible to read the gauges like that, so I need to figure it out before the next run. First fuel up since '97

Or make a deal with @TeamJB for NOS: https://www.ebay.com/itm/354778184144?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=u7liipels-y&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=bvI28PPZSAu&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Follow me to the dark side!

Be careful the slope here…@rockymtnflyfisher Does @rkymtnflyfisher come to mind?

And here it is 2 years later. All of the above completed, as well as a repair and repaint of the rear passenger side ambulance door. It's now got just about 370,000kms on it so I redid the injectors and it runs a lot better now. Not that it was...

Part of master closet: Part of Mrs. 1911's sewing and craft room, construction opening closed in except for doorway to the closet for that room: Kitchen/dining dome module completely plastered with cement and first coat of mud: I should...

I like to use Deoxit on all my terminals.

Couldnt believe my eyes as I got my first look at them. Nah mate sorry he doesnt. The guy bought them years ago for his BJ42 and had them in storage. The BJ42 was sold a few years ago, he found the panels now and decided to sell them on ebay...

Would want to see a BJ44LV? Only LHD mid wheel base 40 had an aftermarket market top. Most from Columbia which were all FJ43s not diesels. Not saying it isn't possible. Plaque on the firewall should be a model BJ44LV~K and possibly a letter or...
