Hello I would like to introduce myself & my tight little ride a 4/97 LX450 bone stock in form with Elockers.
My intention in this thread is to keep records of my build progress. My goal is to start wheelin again & camping with my young family. 18 years ago I sold my fj40.
So here is my family haulin DD on the next morning I got it on 11-4-14 just one month ago.
It was a 4 hour drive to get it, I was so nervous because it was a very low price $5,600. I didn't know if it was a good deal or I was getting a short end of the stick. Do you know that feeling? It turns out that it spent the majority of time in the dry South West so it is very clean underneath like it's never left pavement. Now that I got home I think it was a good deal.
So far all I have done is put brake pads on all corners check all fluids & 3 tanks of gas.
My end goal is a very mild build. Something like the pic below.
That's all for now.
Finally a Cruiser owner again.
Can I call it a Cruiser?
