I'm happy to do organizing, or let someone else do it. Even though I now have an FJ60 and a BJ60 of which neither are currently roadworthy, I'd still have been there in the Prius if I were in town. People want to shoot for another summer date? Late July / early August maybe? How did the space work out?

Also, I don't really know too much about cascade cruisers. From the little research I've done, they seem pretty inactive and 40 focused. I could be wrong?

Hey guys, sorry that I missed you. I was coming back Saturday from a CA camping trip. Let me know if there is a next time and I'll be sure to show up.
Damn I forgot to check this thread, can we put a PDX text group together?
Also I'm running my 60 in the Gambler 500 Rally this year, July 9th and 10th. Leaves from the Corner Saloon at 6 am Saturday. It's a navigation challenge for time with oddball cars (hearses, firetrucks, Pinzguar etc). It heads out east over really cool country, not a family friendly event but I'd love to see some more cruisers out there or whatever weird beaters you want to bring.

Hey fellow cruisers, Matt here just came across this thread! Awesome idea, I've been wanting to meet up with fellow 60 series guys in the PDX area for a while now. I've already met derek a couple months back as he driving by my house and I was in the garage working on the Shaggin Wagon (1988 HJ61).
I have a crazy work schedule but would love to try to make the next meet up.
Oh yeah, I'm in the Oregon City area

Thats a sweet ride Matt!
Thanks guys It's nice to see a few cruiser guys here in the area. I usually go 6 weeks without seeing another 60 on the road and I do a lot of commuting....starting to think I live in the wrong area haha. Maybe we could start planning on a mild off roading trip sometime later this summer? A day trip or possibly an overnighter. I'm new to the Portland area so I'm unfamiliar with trails around here....something to think about if people are interested? 
Anyone have any interest in a gear/parts swap? Ive been unengineering my FJ60 for a while now and have some parts that could be useful to some.

That could certainly be interesting. I'm about ready for a garage sale.
I'll get a list of my parts together and post it back here.
Anybody in the Portland, OR. area know of a self service car wash with hot water? I'm trying to clean up the under carriage of my FJ62 to pinpoint a leak. Thanks!

Wow, I like those BFG tires and the stance. Can you provide details? Size? Did you need spacers?
Thanks! Those are the BFG All-Terrains KO2'S 33x10.5 on 15inch rims....no spacers, no rubbing 
those are the rims that came with the truck when it was imported so I'm not sure if they are offset or not.
Also I don't know of a hot water self service in the Portland area...would be be nice to have for an engine detail!
