LSJ 73 Resto Mod - The Flying Burrito

I guess that beats paying the final tab!

Naw, we settled up and then did some more. Cash was fine but wife didn't like it for long hauls.

So what's next? Inquiring minds want to know!

Thanks for asking. We are doing a couple of things. I need to figure out what to do with the old shop truck (FJ75 flatbed, 12,000 original miles, museum piece) while building the new shop truck - the '02 Tacoma SR5 below. We have expanded the ELocker offering into the Tacoma/4Runner/FJC/Tundra community. The wrap is a mock up for now, working out the graphics.

Also playing with idea of a built 80 trail rig to highlight some of our diesel bits. Georg seems to think he knows something about the Benzine Wagons

I'm a fan! I have really enjoyed my 12HT in my 45. I can't wait to get the truck back together.

Most definitely....even broke off some odd bits of the undercarriage.

This is my favorite cruiser yet, and now my kids have a new Jungle Gym! I'm happy that Ward sold it to me, but I was a little disappointed when his wife didn't like it since we put so much effort into making it as comfortable as possible.

I had to talk my wife into her garage though, I'll pay for that for years to come

 

[wardharris]

She liked it but didn't fully appreciate it.

I loved it a lot, but her more.

Sniff

Sad, but fine... Since Tor gets it done!
Har du videre planer for Cruisern @torfab ?
Trur du har gjort et godt kjøp! ;p

 

[wardharris]

"...Tor gets it done!"

It was done before he bought it...then he started taking stuff off!!!

 

[torfab]

No, Ward has built the beast of all 70's, I'm just fortunate enough to take it over. I installed a back seat for the kids, seat belts, and an Arb drawer set to keep recovery gear and for mounting the fridge.

Missed this ... Wow. Sorry to hear that it is gone now but going to @torfab is one of the best homes it could have gone....

Hello,

It is always good to see a Cruiser going to a caring home.

FINI

It is with a heavy but happy heart that I announce that the 73 has a new home. Tor Slinning (Torfab) made me an offer I couldn't refuse and the LSJ73 is now his daily driver....sniff, sniff.......

Where is the H8 button?

Sorry to see it go but glad it went where it did ....

Well it's getting late but I made it to page 20... you guys are funny . It's awesome you documented the build so well . I will try to carry the torch but you guys pretty much did most everything one could imagine...except a few things to come .

Thanks Ward , and Tor.
