Hi Paul, his name was Jasper and he lived to be 17 1/2 and his sister made it to 14 1/2. Great dogs. Jasper went everywhere with me in the FJ45, even in his last few years. The old bench seat in the cruisers was made for a dog for sure.

I got a nice phone call from a friend of the previous owners grandson and said he had some tools from his grandads truck. Now I just need to find the feeler gauge set in the green pouch to have my complete tool roll. Yay!
Was looking to see what color you did your heater. Did you just match the glove box and ashtray?
What a beauty!!!

Yes, I matched a good 65 glovebox door at my local powdercoating shop.

We took Sage to a local car show this weekend to share the history of this old truck. The old FJ45 can still compete with all the Hot Rods and Sports Cars.
Best in our class…
HAPPY FATHERS DAY EVERYONE.

I was invited to an “invitation only“ car show at our local Country Club. I was hesitant at first but honored and accepted. It was a really fun event. I was able to stretch the legs on Sage and was also able to share and educate some about the history of the Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45.
We had tons of kind words and interested folks wondering what exactly was this funny looking truck. Most had no idea.

Just part of the crazy I see every day that a $270 camp chair is sold out.

Thank you Terrax. We had a blast bringing this one back. More fun to drive than anything I have. We really enjoy sharing it and the whole FJ45 story with others.
