Last night seller and I agreed to terms and the deposit was sent on the 68 55 series. Dad and I traveled from Sandpoint Idaho to Tulsa several years ago for great father son trip driving my fj40 to its new home and I am stoked to get opportunity to do it again!
Plans are taking Dad (both a little older now) to Austin to pick up the new cruiser and trailer it home to farm in Tulsa. Intent is to give me project to work on and do the best I can to keep her as original as possible. When I bring the big tractor back to farm from snowhell in CO in April I will bring the pig up to Steamboat so I can start doing little things mechanically.
Not a ton of pics but will share what I can. I've been lurking in the background reading ya'lls posts and soaking up what I can. I am stoked about this one for sure. With a name like Hamilton I am leaning towards naming her "Hammy1". I have my eyes on a completed newer one I really want to take camping with the wife and dogs and think "Hammy2) if the stars line up and the cruiser gods smile down upon me.
Not a ton of pics and what I do have aren't loading to my phone. Big thanks to @TachedOutOffRoad for his guidance yesterday!
