Wayne you do realize you were insulted in a subtle way.
Well it really wasn't the subtle ...... He is saying you are old.

It is amazing what the Aussies can do with a welder and beer.....

What about grumpy.. doesn't that come with old age to.

Deleted ,double post.

you're only insulted if you catch it. at my age, i just let it go over my head so no foul.

i think i would have made a great Oz redneck.

If you love shooting ferals from a land cruiser in the outback you would breeze it in, maybe knock out a tooth or two aswell.

Shooting innocent critters from the window of a truck ranks right up there with cold beer and sleeveless t-shirts.
Yet another reason to install a gun rack in the roof.

My neighbors back yard....
This area is usually dry as a bone.....

Send some of that rain this way! We need it.

For those of you who fancy the challenge of a river crossing, I offer my back yard.
I will supply the lawn chairs and the beer.

Sorry the HJ75 is in the paint shop and not available as the first prize however I can probably get the LJ78 back to fill that role.
That alone should have Cruiserheads lining up in my driveway to participate.

well....
i am looking for a 4 door body ...

I thought LJ78's were like mosquitoes up there. ( plentiful but somewhat of a nuisance )

 

[crushers]

nah, there are a couple die hard LJ lovers but the rest have sent them to the parts bin.
sick and tired of expensive repair, poor fuel economy and being passed by VW vanagon owners

The white running boards ( not one of my brighter ideas ) have been replaced.

 

[Gun Runner 5]

Black textured finish is somewhat better.

I recently bought a new LHD floor mat ( removed from a HZJ79 ) to replace the ratty mat in my ole RHD HJ75. As it turns out, this was one of those projects that was far better in theory than it was in reality. Virtually NONE of the "cut outs" were in the right place and as it turns out the transmission tunnel on the HJ75 is narrower than the one on The HZJ79 so the mat was creased in the wrong places. Approximately 3" had to be cut out of the middle which was then spliced back together to correct this issue. The excess material at the rear of the cab was used to make numerous patches to correct the fact that both of the shifters were now in the "wrong place" and the PTO shifter did not exist.
If I had it to do again I would have searched far and wide for the proper mat.
