Cruisers spotted in the Upstate.....

[JToobe]

Busy day yesterday, travel to Atlanta for meeting and delivery of some samples, pick up a part at Peter Merriams shop for @emac 's new 62 project and then to Lake Keowee to pick up boat at repair shop and tow it less than a mile to a friends family lake house and park it so we can clean it up before putting back in the water this afternoon. Got turned around coming off Hwy 11 onto 123 and drove thru Westminster and spotted this 60 at a tire shop. Was able to take a pic since i had to backtrack to get back on route!

This 91-94 Gold 80 series pulled up next to me yesterday about 1:30 pm in DT Gville at corner of Russell & Washington. Never seen it before.

Same 80 spotted by @Wdeloach in post 126 & I've seen several times about 6pm on East North St near Mitchell Rd & Haywood Rd. One day we'll connect with them....

Saw @Carp (the man, not the vehicle) at the CFA in Mauldin last week Friday....was eating with @Trollhole & @aquatech3. Couldn't get your attention from across the room.....
Went to Goodyear off Pelham to have a couple rims/tires separated from the 62 accident last year (don't judge), they were very kind to do it for free. This was in one of the bays:

Wife just texted me these photos taken right across from Fluor field and also the contact info of the owner, Peter Gustafson, who is from Illinois. Nice black 80!
So learned some additional info: Peter just moved to Greenville in the last month and works at St. Francis Hospital. He bought this '95 80 from a family acquaintance also about a month ago....his first Cruiser. He actually stopped and parked next to Sherry when she pulled in!
Giving him club and MUD info so hopefully we will be hearing and seeing more of him!

Bummed I didn't notice you guys. Was in a hurry that day, had run a couple of errands during lunch, was grabbing something quick. Let me know the next time y'all head to lunch, I'm close enough now to attend things during lunch.

In the natural habitat of a gas pump.

At Chick-fil-A on Laurens Rd this morning.

Don Cain (@yamaguchigumi) finally found his 40 after selling his corvette! A rust free 1971 that was in Taylors. He's got a lot planned for it so we shall see a transformation over the next year or so.....
He's really been bitten by the Cruiser bug as this is his 3rd one in about 18-20 months!

Spotted at the intersection of Pine Street and Main Street in Spartanburg. Very nice ride!

My buddy Jeff seen this and talked to the guy in five Forks. He went to Japan to get it...thing is in immaculate shape.

Went to lunch today off Woodruff Rd. and passed a nice 60 series. Tan or gold color IIRC. Too much traffic to take a picture. had OOBE sticker on the back glass...

Busy week last week with travel, spotted @ikanclim on I-85 heading south towards Atlanta and learned from Marshall that he was heading to the 100s in the Hills gathering in CO!

 

[JToobe]

Should be seeing this really nice white FJ62 here in Greenville soon as @thisisbrian flew down to Mississippi and drove it back last week. It's currently at Trollhole's getting a lift and I believe some 33's are in it's not too distant future! First Cruiser for Brian...welcome to the addiction!

 

[JToobe]

Lastly, some of our younger club members have taken their Cruisers on road trips this summer. @Montanaconner took the 62 after the 3FE swap to Nashville and then to Maryland with no issues other than his roof rack coming off the vehicle and then getting stolen!
@nickcain007 (in orange shirt on far right) and 4 buddies just arrived in CO in his FJ60 with no issues although I would hate to have been the guy who had to sit in the middle of the back seat....actually any place of the back seat would have been brutal for that long......good to be young!

Thanks @JohnnyBighead for bringing a smile to my face after work yesterday as you passed me at intersection of River St. & Broad St. downtown in your green 40! I was headed to Asheville to deliver some orange cases!

Stopped a few days ago at A-1 Auto Repair shop on Wade Hampton just down from BJU as I spotted a tan 60 and white 80 in the bays facing the road. Left cards with the shop owner for each car owner but who knows if they will get passed on.

Sorry no pics (couldn't get my phone out quick enough). I saw a two tone, Light blue / dark blue 60-series in Greer Sunday afternoon. He was heading up Hwy 14 and crossed Wade Hampton as I sat at the light. Had a roof rack and a RTT on top. It looked like a nice ride.

Then..... yesterday, I stopped by Chic-fil-a in Greer for lunch and saw an early model 40, red. It had the top off but the doors on.... That's quite an interesting look. I planned on trying to find the owner but after I played frogger through the dual drive-thru lanes and went inside to remember why I never go to chic-fil-a (crazy crowded) I forgot to go find him. I have never seen either of these vehicles before.

Was it you?????
