OK – – can’t figure out what’s happening with my gauges. Fuses check out good, the gauges are plugged in appropriately. I’m not an electrical genius, unfortunately. I pulled the Dakota digital gauges out, and heard some rattling. A few of the small Phillips head screws, inside the gauge...

Subscribed! Cool find…. Looking forward to the story.

Is this still for sale?

Merry Christmas from Clover, SC. It’s 14* F here this morning! I’m planning to drive the cruiser to church this morning!

And if he can’t trust it anymore, I’ll come write a check this week :)

The owner is blessed to have you as his ‘mechanic’… Christmas Eve Eve, and making house calls… impressive!

Beautiful truck…. GLWTS!

Ok guys, back with a few photos. I haven’t been able to spend any time in the shop this week but I wanted to answer a few questions to keep the ball rolling; It does have a fan shroud, and a new water pump.

Beautiful Cruiser… Good luck with the sale.

Wow! Didn’t know there was an app for my phone… I have the factory 4 speed transmission

I’m running 33x10.50 tires. I’m assuming I have 3.70 gears being a ‘79 How could I verify the Dakota digital gauges being correct / incorrect?

Beautiful build…glad you’re sticking with it!

Good evening! Wondering what type of water temperature you guys are seeing on a hot summer day, cruising between 65 and 72 mph? Mine seems to hit 220F but stabilize and not go above; at 55-60 she runs 180-190F Assuming this is ok, wanted to be sure; 1979 FJ40, 33’s w/ Stock 2F with Weber...

Congratulations on the purchase. I look forward to seeing it around town. I work in Charlotte, but live in Clover South Carolina.

I remember seeing videos somewhere of Chip teaching Joanna how to drive this truck; cool rig, not worth $35k IMHO without a running motor. Best of luck to the seller

As I was working on the Cruiser yesterday, I noticed that one of my front clip bolts was missing. See attached picture. Made me wonder if I even had the correct bolts in there from the get-go. Is the torx bolt the correct factory bolt? If so, I’ll work on tracking down a second bolt. Thanks!

Timely post….I’m looking for a new starter for my ‘79 with 2F. Assuming that the 28100-60070-84 part number is the correct one? Local Toy dealer the best place to start? Thanks!

Wow, awesome work. Would you be able to make this work without the sniper setup, say with a Weber carb?

Good evening, Mud! What vendors would you suggest purchasing a complete Holly Sniper EFI kit and a Vintage Air kit from? I was looking at Mosley Motors for the Sniper kit? I’d sent Cruiser Crap an email about their Vintage Air kit since they listed the kit the cheapest ($1,400?) but haven’t...

Beautiful Cruiser; I’m in charlotte; hate to see it gone but you did well in the auction
