The prices are spiraling out of control! Good thing I sold mine before it lost all its value.

Pretty cool...looks like a good read.
Repaired some links in my post
For those interested, I just read that there will be a 2014 Grand Cherokee with a 3.0-litre diesel this year...anyone else hear any news on this?
Seems that even GM is getting back into the diesel game with a diesel engine Cruze on the way.

I knew the owner of Sedona Adventures. I would help him out finding and looking at 40 in the Phoenix area. A picked up a few later hard tops off of some of these cruisers as well as other items. In the late nineties he decided he wanted to be a author and sold his business to pink jeeps. The vehicles were secondary to the contracts he had to run certain trails in the Sedona area. After a few years the Toyota were all replaced by Jeeps. A guy who lives north of Tucson bought all the 40s and remaining parts. I believe most were parted out and guessing the rest of the stuff went to Proffitt's when there were buying collects up around the west before closing their doors earlier this year.
These were set up with a box built on the back to use as another bench seat. The short jump seats were replace with new long seats. They would hold six in the back and a passenger in the front with the stock bucket seats. Custom roll cages were made. Tops/ambulance doors/jump seats/stock roll bars/visors were all removed. The doors were off but he refused to sell them just in case it would rain but i don't believe they were ever used. They were all their original color. Not gold or the turquoise which they once were painted. He also used to have a couple rusted out 40s in his front yard that he used for parts. He bought them site unseen. One of the reasons he started having me check them out before buying. I wasn't paid in money but parts.
John,
just searched pink jeeps and found a nice pic on the web, but with the wrong truck

Next week 21st april dutch landcruiser club day in Houten NL. With the oldest european landcruiser: 1959 fj25, our 1962 fj40, and many special landcruisers like a firetruck and an armoured lancruiser 200.
The dutch Landcruiser club day was today. They showed the oldest landcruiser in Europe: a 1958 FJ 25 owned by the dutch louwman museum.
Shot some pics. After all I have learned (since I'm familiair with the 25 section) I'm a bit dissapointed how they 'restored' it. But hey, it's the only FJ25 I'ver ever seen and the only one in Europe.
What's up with that frame nummer: 8- FJ23-6615L. Didn't find another fj25 with fj23 in the frame nr on mud.
Should I post this one in the sticky thread?

I'm surprised how they painted it also, but at least it survived. Stupid question............is it 4WD? I honestly can't remember what the FJ23 designation was, have to search. Post is as #149 in the sticky thread, pretty sure we don't have it there yet, I've only seen the old magazine article.

I think it is 4wd. At least it had an front axle with differential, but don't know if it is connected. Three levers on the floor: shifter, handbrake? and 4wd engage?
I will post it in the sticky thread.
