Not mine, but I wish. I downloaded that pic from MUD a couple of years ago and can't remember who the truck belongs to. Thought it was an inspiring photo, worthy of Grogan's best work. The second reason for saving is the 4+ Aussie brush guard and winch bumper that I wanted to copy on my truck, whenever I finally get around to mounting my 8274.

I think Tolleson has one of those Brush guards that he took off....you may ping him about it.

Hmmm, thanks for the tip. I'll ping him. Maybe he'll trade for craft beers.

Bodean is going to be even harder to keep up with now!!

Nice work gents

 

[Bodean]

Check those fancy Asin hubs! All I can say is don't disassemble them to paint! Bugger to get back together if you haven't done it or have started drinkin'! (Thanks for the hubs Bossman!)

 

[Bomar]

Pretty truck is growd up now...

 

[Bossman]

Three Toyota Land Cruisers




Let me state that these are all in really rough condition. Below is a list by vehicles.

1. 1979 FJ40-301219, this is the yellow Cruiser. The driver’s side front floor board is mostly gone. The passage front floor board is not as bad, but still has rotted damaged. The rear cargo area around the back doors has rot damage. The rear outside lower cab corners, rear roof corners, front roof corners all have rot damage. Top of front fenders where they attached to the side of hood skirt is some rot damage. All doors have rot damage. The water pump, and carburetor is removed, but I still have them. The tires are dry rotted, and there is no battery. The hood has dents, and body fill on it. I do have the keys! The last it ran was in 2006 when I purchased it. The frame appears to look alright.

2. 1951-1954? BJ-40-041863, BJLY-KOJK, this is the red Cruiser. It originally came with a diesel engine, but now has a Ford 302 fuel injection out of what I don’t know (Mustang/Lincoln/F-series). I have not looked to see what make, or model the manual transmission is (Toyota/Ford). The body, although is mostly there it is still 95% gone! The firewall part does seem to be in great shape! The tires are no good. The axles (front/rear) are there, as is the roll bars. The rear fold down seats I put in the back of the yellow vehicle. The front grill, and front fender skirts are removed, and placed out of the weather. The frame is rusted!

3. 1975 FJ40-214400, this is the brown Cruiser. The there are no floorboards, and rear cargo area are gone. The front window has one cat eye crack in it. The window frame has some rust on the top outer corners. The front clip is in really good shape, with some rust on the lower front fenders where the running boards would bolt up. There are some small dents here and there on the clip. The frame appears to look alright. The Toyota six cylinder engine is locked up, but I have taken off the head and placed it out of the weather. The front doors are a homemade frames covered in canvas like material.

4. There are extra fenders, grill, rear area heaters, shocks (still in package), and other mics. parts to go with them.

I have plenty of pictures upon request.

Lastly, make me an offer!
