"I seek the white whale"! And found it (HJ75)

[Bostonfj60]

I thought the 70 series was underrepresented in the Yankee Toys, so I did what any good club member would do...bought a 70 series.

Introducing the "White Whale"

1987 HJ75 with the TRAKKA top conversion.
2H - with an ARB Turbo

This is getting set up as my adventure Photography rig, and family wheeling rig. More pics/spec's as I get to know her better!

Cheers!

Nice truck, who has the bigger smile, you or the boy?

 

[green40]

Very good! Where did you find it?

 

[Splangy]

Sweet!

 

[Bostonfj60]

Ya I think the boy is almost as excited to go camping in it as me!

So it is originally from Australia. I purchased it from California, from the guy who imported it two years ago. Found it on Ebay actually...
put in a max bid which I was convinced was too low to win (based on previous HJ75's) but miraculously...I won!

Love it! If you don't get a vanity plate that says "MOBY" you are missing a huge opportunity.

Sweet rig. Still keeping the 40 though right.

 

[SouthBostonFJ40]

"MOBY" is not available, however "WHTWHL" is!

I was thinking about Vanity plate options...

EXPLOR
OUTBAK
CRUZAH

all are available....hmmmm

 

[Bostonfj60]

Honestly, not sure right now. Either the Tacoma or the 40 has to go. I am DD'ing the HJ75 for the next few weeks
to see if I can handle it every day. If not, the 40 goes up for sale. Choices!!

Sweet rig. Still keeping the 40 though right.
