Gee, looks like the Paparazzi Patrol caught me. ;) Funny how I can take this rig to Cruise Moab 3 years in a row, not get a pic in TT or in a calendar, but go to Home Depot and here it is. :bounce: :bounce2: :bounce: sweet.
I would consider painting it to make it more photo friendly, but ige has threatened me with death if I do! :eek: Nice spy work from your friend. This 45 did great in the "Blizzard of 2006". I have been running my 45 pickup lately but brought this one back to life for the versatility. Got a pic of it pulling a J@*p wagon out. See if I can post it later. Just wish I had the snowplow on it right now :doh: . Could really use it. Poor thing did everything I asked of it and more. Congrats on you 45 find. :cheers:

I thought it might be you...yup the papazzi got ya ;)

Mine definitely needs the paint...and ige hasn't threatened me NOT to paint it...so...lol

Yeah, leave it as it is, perfect original patina. Anyone who knows what it is will appreciate it, and for anyone who doesn't know what it is :flipoff2: - who cares. :D
 
Yes, clear coat is an option that has been pondered, if I leave it "as is" most of the FJ45LV potential buyers leave me alone :bounce: :bounce2: , and I don't worry about "scratches" if I am wheeling it, and I avoid ige and certain doom::skull:
:cheers:
 
I'm thinking fjben should clear coat his cammo :grinpimp:
 
noooooooooooo.....if it were cooler looking camo...I'd be "tempted" to keep it...

but since it's sorta fugly, and there is no Rocketlauncher in the back...I'm going to have to pass :lol:

no launcher?:crybaby: I think every 45 should have a launcher :bounce: :bounce2: :bounce: :bounce2: :bounce: :bounce2: :D
launcher is a priority over paint. right?
:cheers:

damn right!!!no way you can paint a beauty like that. clearcoat and be done with it.
 
Not going to be seeing solid original paint cruisers from colorado much anymore due to the way they are now coating the roads in Mag Chloride. Era of rot free Colorado cuisers is coming to an end. :frown:
 
Damn that mag chloride. I can't stand the liquid stuff they put down. I'd rather see salt on the road.

The worst thing about it is you pretty much have to drive with the washer on the way it coats glass. In my 64 it's even worst with no windshield washer. I carry a spare bottle of blue cleaner in the trunk. I learned my lesson once on I70. I ran out of washer fluid and almost went off the road. I had to use snow til the next exit.

Sure seems to have more "hang time" in the air. I leave as much following distance as I used to and my windshield is getting trashed with it. " We don't need no stinkin mag chloride!". That's why we have Toyota 4X4's. Let it snow!
 
Makes me want a LV even more, they are beautifulllllllll.
