Introduction - finally bought Land Cruiser

[badmoon rising]

Hello. Been lurking on mud for a while and am now pleased to intro myself. Have owned FJ40, 85 Toyota 4x4 pick-up and handful of other 4x4s over the years but finally found the Land Cruiser I've been looking for .... Recently became the proud owner of a mint one-owner 2002 UZJ 100 with 58k miles. Locally owned and lady-driven rig ... Had to snatch it up.

Currently in process of baseline maintenance. Running boards removed and misc parts ordered.

Don't think I can post pics yet (this is 1st post) but will do so asap. Appreciate all the insight found on board and look forward to adding to the shenanigans.

Thanks much - Badmoon

Welcome to the insanity, badmoon. Sounds like a really nice low-mileage rig, looking forward to the pics.

Lots of good folks here. Again, welcome.

Thanks guys - glad to be here. PFran, I'll take you up on offer for a cold beer. Noticed there are a few guys in Atlanta around mud.

There are quite a few built 80/100 in Atlanta. I'm down for a beer or two myself. Hope to see you on the trails.

As requested ...

Have since painted faded exterior trim to match rest of vehicle.

you need to come to Uwharrie 2-4 December even if you ride trails with someone else.

I can't make it, but if I were anybody else I'd be up there!
