Hey I found a FJ62 here in covington. Nice fj. Tan in color and it does not look as if it is getting used. If anyone is interested please let me know and I can go take pictures and ask if they want to sell it. Looks stock and most likely was a high school kids driver for it has a local high school sticker in the window. Le tme know, Deryl
I'd like of those (hell I'd like one of everything)... except I want to cut the top off and put in a cage etc....
Hell, Cannon wants one too!
...but his can't come soon enough! ...soon my friend...soon

I've dropped a card on his rig before. I see it all the time. Never heard back from him. That's a DD for him.

I'll do that after I get many, many miles and years out of this one. When it's near death, I'll chop the top, redo the engine and make a crawler with it. Until then, my vision is more along the lines of adding a sunroof and sliding rear windows!

I want to see all that too, but small steps bud. Budget sized small steps.
But you forgot the big bumper on the back with the hi-jack lift and the spare tire carrier.
And the tent mounted on the tent.
And the kick a$$ sound system.

Well I wouldn't want you to "poo poo" on my door step. What kind of sissy talk is that? Will you pee pee with your wee wee too?
Wow

You stepped into post 961! Excellent job my friend.
Really, got a buddy that may want that St. Gabriel rig to build on. I was asking Scott for pics and then he threatened me. Sounds like he could go toe to toe with some of our third graders at recess. LOL. Sorry Scott. I couldn't pass it up.

Guys, when I had that rig, it was covered. It was NEVER used for anything other than entertaining oil men on a hunting lease. Everything from the wheels to the seats, were original. It even had the original 3-on-tree and Vacuum shift-on-the-fly 4WD, and it all worked. It was 40k or so original miles. Decals on the engine and compartment were in tact still. It is hard for me to imagine how bad it is now. Also, cruisers go REALLY fast in the weather uncovered. There was an imaculate and quite fine 79 FJ40 in New Iberia (owned by mechanic) and well maintain...after the old man died, his daughter began driving to ULL (about 7 years ago or so). She used to park it by Old Tyme Grocery ocassionally. Well, at that time, she wanted 17k for it. AND, IMHO it was worth it. Well, years later, she ended up in New Orleans with it, first A/C broke, she quit driving it, left it out in the yard, and the sun, rain, elements made it look horrible. Next thing, it turns up in New Iberia, by my Dad's house, and Chris sees it and purchases it for $4k. SO, I think I have a good idea about how fast they rot when not taken care of.
Myself, I'm hunting down the FJ25 I saw a few years ago...but after a 1963/64 w/hard top to build AND (yes AND) my first (sentimental) 1974 FJ40 which is still here in town. Sitting in a garage with brand new paint (and factory tailgate...had OEM softop and bows when I bought it)

We need to make a road trip there again but he says that's what he's looking for. I tried to warn him but he seems up to the task. He likes MUD and will likely start browsing its pages for help. I'll get him signed up if he gets that rig.
