Builds Goat. A 1967 survivor FJ-45 LWB (7 Viewers)

My first compressor was an IR I used it for 26 years. I did have a motor issue that was easily and economically repaired locally, when it was 20 years old. When I upgraded I sold it to a fellow cruiser head that now uses it in his business repairing LC’s.

Ha. Yeah Blues days are numbered.

The 45 is a generational vehicle though. It’s safe.
