Are you all no longer working on LC's at all? I don't think there is a shop more knowledgeable in the area than you all. Thanks again for all you did for my 62.

Audi/VW is what I specialize in. PIcked up the LC work from when I was wheeling. Trying to stick to basic maintenance on vehicles from the last 20 years or so. We certainly won't send existing customers packing, just not trying to take on any new work. Thanks again for the kind words and the business.
Does anyone know of a Cruiser Mechanic in the Denver/Loveland/Fort Collins Colorado area that works on carbureted cruisers? Every shop I called on the list is either closed or does not work on carbureted vehicles.
Did you call Joe at CTS? In Conifer.

Hello and Good day, the person managing the list, I would like to request an update.
Can you please update the this list for me? I am in the Rio Verde Foothills of Scottsdale Arizona these days. As for the future. I plan on working in both Scottsdale AZ winters(5-6 months) And Ninilchik Alaska for the summers(6-7 months) after 2023. Should be in AZ for the year of 2023 except for a few trips now and again. Building a shop and finishing the property we finished a house one.

Any Trip is worth the Venture and the learning that comes along with it.
Thanks, Robbie

Not yet, is he still in buisness?
Yes
Am I in the right place for FJ62's here - if yes, then based on my personal experience and a full refurb/restomod of my 1988 FJ62 and keeping my backup 1990 FJ62 rolling through the woods, down the beaches and along the highways...
I would like to nominate:
Bridgehampton Autosport
Address: 213 Butter Ln, Bridgehampton, NY 11932
Phone: (631) 237-1111
I've also seen a number of FJ60's in their shop along with many (too many) Bronco's, some Wagoneers and plenty of 50s-90s muscle.

Asheville Vehicle Outfitters (AVO)
24 Sterling Place
Mills River, NC 28759

After I purchased my '90 FJ62 at auction in December, AVO performed a Birfields knuckle rebuild, rear main seal and torque converter seal replacement, oil pan and transmission pan gaskets replaced, all fluids replaced, including differentials, a complete tune up including valve tappet adjustments. The overall cost was reasonable and I have zero oil leaks now. They also installed an Old Man Emu suspension and new wheels and tires. I am really happy with all the work and would recommend them if you are in the Asheville, NC area. Eric is the owner, real nice guy.

I am having problems with google my maps. Keeps coming up blank and I have to delete cookies to get it back which is a PITA. The map will not be update for a while unless someone else wants to try.
Tim's Toy Shop in Longmont Colorado is no longer in business. Shame as its 3 blocks from my house.
You can add Churchill Classics in Eldred New York. Their website is down for repairs but they are very much in business, one of my friends works for them.

There used to be a kid in Longmont who was really good with Toyota trucks. His name was James and he had a stint running his own business maybe 10-15 years ago when he was maybe 20-30 years old. He ran the shop (James' Auto maybe?) and his mom (Diane?) ran the phones. He was also involved with the ratty Mazda/Honda tuner kid scene up there. Knew what he was doing, was very thorough, preferred OEM parts, had great pricing, and good follow through. Did a great full rebuild on my uncle's 4Runner's 22R back then and saved my neck on a 94 4Runner I had that another shop messed up. My uncle's early 2nd gen Runner has been on the road as a daily driver ever since, still going strong.Tim's Toy Shop in Longmont Colorado is no longer in business.

I wonder if he's still around. Does that ring any bells?
Yes, both
I haven't seen anything, there's no James Auto that I know of. I might have to stop and talk to one of the fellow Cruiser guys in town and see.
Hey all!
Does anyone know of a good LC mechanic in northern IL or southern WI? I went through the thread but it seems like most of the ones listed are not around anymore. Apologies if I missed one.
Trying to swap a replacement 2F and H55 into my 87 FJ60.
Thanks in advance!
Very Respectfully,
RC

If you use the map version of the list found here you will see that Rogers Automotive is in that area. Click on the icond and you will get full details. The data is from the FJ60 gsheet. The map may not be uptodate all the time.
