1985 HJ75 Pickup

[Chester]

the way I figure it, By next spring (Mr. Wayne's latitude), I'll be ready to swap some precious metals (mostly chrome vanadium) for Canadian dollars, and come buy that 70. Meanwhile, I'll search everywhere for similar, and meanwhile it'll be safe and warm.

Of course, my figurator might be on the blink, it's vintage wireless!

it gets parked in a couple months for the winter but before then i am getting a new custom top made up, similar to the bikini top but with roll up windows.

Not a 70 Series but some of the work my friend is doing on a 45 Series Troopy for a client.

 

[Gun Runner 5]

The client wanted a rotating gun turret ....
The hatch is being painted outside.

 

[Gun Runner 5]

2H Turbo ..... Power Steering, disc brakes all around, ARB Airlockers etc.

 

[Gun Runner 5]

So the critters and bushes can't get in.

 

[Gun Runner 5]

Upgraded suspension....

He has taken over 300 photos of the whole process and I am pestering the crap out of him to post them.

I took the BJ74 on a little road trip today .... Approximately 200 miles ( 322 kms for you Canadians ) ....... It didn't explode.
This photo was taken in the last mile or so.

 

[Gun Runner 5]

...and this photo was taken as I pulled into the driveway. Not a bad way to end a day.

Is there any demand for this style of bumper ( BJ74 ) minus the winch?
Thanks....

Oh sure....I see how it it is...Let the white truck enjoy the shade, while the gray truck bakes in the sun.....Then start selling parts off it.....

Just relax oh boy ..... They are both in the shade.
If a part comes off .... A fancier part goes on. ( it's that whole circle of life thing )

That is a kind offer ......
