Hey everyone,
I want to introduce myself to the local Hampton Roads and even Eastern North Carolina Cruisers and Toyota. I have already contacted many IH8MUD members on here in the area about these ideas. I have been wanting to start a little East Coast Cruiser or Toyota club since I bought my 80. Nothing serious like fee's, mandatory meetings, or any of that. I just want to explore and build with some of the trucks that I have come to love. I also want to create a website that we can post our trip pictures and modifications on for the rest of IH8mud to see.
A little about myself. I am 22, and have been wheeling since I was 10 (Four wheelers and such). I started building a couple of years ago on my 99 Chevy Blazer ZR2, which I dropped $7000 into. 7 inch suspension, Moog problem solver everything, 4.56 Yukons, lockers F&R, a lot of herculiner and it was still falling apart. The IFS is just such a weak point. Anyways, I fell in love with Toyota and the Land Cruisers, so I traded the Chevy in for the locked 80. I could say it was probably the best decision I have ever made. I could also say I wouldn't buy anything other than a Toyota now. You can check out my FZJ on the pic gallery that I created on here.
Anyways, I think that this would be fun, and hopefully we can get a few people on board. Thanks for reading and if you have any ideas, comments, questions definitely feel free to ask. If this post needs to be elsewhere, of course move it, or let me know.
Also, I am just trying to gather some thoughts with everyone, so if you have more know-how about clubs, and website stuff, feel free to take the lead.
Again I appreciate it,
-Josh
