How many 40's are in greenville county?

[Trollhole]

64k imported to the US from 74 forward. There were probably another 25k or so from earlier years.

Means 89k made it here? Let's assume 50% still are on the road. That's 45k total still running.

Greenville has a metro population of 600k. That's .2% of the US population. That means the average is that 89 FJ40's are in Metro Greenville. I'd guess that UC at least adds 20% to the average... There must be exactly 107 FJ40's?

That Boombapslappy guy beat me to the right number though.

You forgot that us in SC we wheel our cruisers so most have been sent to the scrapper by this time.

The correct number of registered FJ40 owners in Greenville county is 44. Still a lot more that I expected.

Oldest is a 68 newest is an 80. Basically there are 37 potential 40 owners who may or may not know anout UC. BUt they will this month. We are going to send out a letter to all of them inviting them to next months meeting. Ought to be fun to see a lot of 40's hanging around.

There are only 4 55 owners in Greenville. 3 I know and are in the club. The last one I saw yesterday and it's for sale.

Looks like Richard wins.

Now for details about the 55 for sale!!!

 

[Capt. Jim]

That really surprised me. Glad to hear there are still that many around when you look for them via registrations.

Toyota Land Cruiser Diesel BJ42!

Speaking of I stopped and looked at the green diesel 40 on Laurens Rd in Gville today...it makes my Piggie look nice.

 

[Trollhole]

What did they want for it?

 

[Southeast Overland]

Marshall - if you are talking about the green 40 on Laurens Rd it originally was marked at $8,000 but one of the new joins who came to Barleys (I can't recall his name right now - nice guy - officer w/ G'ville) said it was now in the hundreds - would need to confirm.

It would probably be worth that for the diesel!

 

[CruisinTiger]

Hey I've got the oldest one here.....cool....does that mean Richard and I get to split the prize!

 

[Trollhole]

So what do you think the number is now?

Ok so now work your magic for Charleston County and we'll try to get in touch with them here to. Maybe even try 40's and 60"s

 

[Trollhole]

5 55's and 48 40's.

So we have gained about three 40's and one 55 in the past year.

Not bad.

5 people own a combination of 2 40's or 1 and 1. Myself and Claude Whaley are the only one's in greenville county that owns two and that are in UC. Thats right there are 3 people out there that own 2 40's each and are not in the club. There are also a lot of father son combinations that are not in the club 3 as a matter of fact. Only father son team in greenville county is Bob Poore and his son Bobby Poore Jr.

Interesting non are younger than a 69. I even found one that had an incorrect vin number. Either that or Toyota changed the way they did vins in 1980. Also only 10 of those above are UC members that I could see.

Speaking of Pigs I have seen Patrick driving his 55 around Cherrydale several times lately.

 

[Trollhole]

So how many 60 and 62 owners are there in Greenville County?
