Completed Imports and Testimonials

[wngrog]

I’m going to list out with photos of all of the vehicles we’ve brought in to date. I’ll try to link the build thread, if any for each one.

If you would like to know how much each of these costs, most of my build threads I include that, but if you don’t see it, feel free to PM me.

Pricing varies greatly on how easy the vehicle is to get, mileage, condition, rarity etc.

The first truck we got from Meshal is this amazing FZJ80. Low low KM that had plastic added to the doors and floors and seat covers over the stock seats from day 1. My friend here local has built it up nicely and we’ve tested it all over the US from sea level to 13,000’

Number two was one of the first 1FZ 75 series. 1
1992. This one came out of the mountains. It was a hay truck. We did nothing to the paint. Just imported it and then did all the work here. Lockers. MRR suspension. Bumpers. @DrRock purchased it and is currently taking it to the next level in the northeast

My shorty 70 came next. I had a blast building this thing and finding out first hand how capable and comfortable a short 70 is.

Build Thread 'Short E 70 - Tilda Bogue Service Station'

Apr 30, 2024

I finally got myself some shop time and feel like it’s time to officially introduce ShortE

If you are following along in my current 75 build you have already seen pictures of this one. They rode across the pond the long way.

The first page of this thread will let you know the odyssey this thing took to get here.

Container mate was this super clean 75 pickup. 183,000 k. We put the best of the best parts in this one. Brendan took it to the next level and has replaced every available small part he could find through Stedman in Japan.

The next one was a Troopy for my buddy Ben in Vermont. This was a big project that got major delayed due to the Oct 6 attack. It had to go around the Horn of Africa but eventually we got it.

@wct49 suffered along with Ben on the torturous shipping and finally got his cool FZJ75. He built this one at his shop. I get to use it from time to time when I drop my other vehicles for oil changes or tires

Thread 'The Camel 1995 FZJ75'

Aug 4, 2024

Meet the Camel or Jamal if you speak its native language. It may have been born in the Land of the Rising Sun but its native land was in the House of Saud.

After having several of its cousins come through the shop and me losing 60 pounds so I might can fit in it, I commissioned @wngrog to start looking for me one.
He contacted his partner @Meshal in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and within a couple of days the candidate was found. This 95 had somehow missed the option of a mounted .50 cal but did have AC. Which is a requirement in the Empty Quarter and is very important in the Magnolia...
