I have a few pictures but I can't load them
Well the Red Camel showed up at my place this morning to look at my truck.
His plan is to get the oil changed and then hit the road for Ontario. He had a friend with him to share the driving.
Good luck Jamie and keep us posted on your progress.
Attention Sask, Manitoba and Ontario mudders, keep an eye on this thread in case he runs into trouble along the way. The truck hasn't seen many miles in the last who knows how many years.

OK so here's the deal I got back home with the yellow 45 and the trip was great and meet a few new people. When I got back home I found a 1977 fj45 and beige so anyways I bought it 2 hours from here and its solid. Soon I will be putting up pictures of both trucks.
