Nothing quite beats an epic Land Cruiser repair at 13,000+ feet.

How many different states were represented during the Imogen Pass repair?
Massachusetts, Kansas, California, Texas, Washington, Colorado? I think this is the coolest group of people, I'm a little biased though.

Repeat pictures...but
That repair @ 13k was cool at the top...AND even better afterwards!

You find out who good people are on trips like these... and who has deferred maintenance

I was under the truck more than I was driving it this year. I’d likely have more luck driving the 40 out than the 60 after my luck last year.
You drove your rig 1,500 miles, wheeled it, and drove it another 1,500 miles home. Nothing wrong with that!
Klaus, are you driving your 40 to SAS#4? Come on man!
Man, I dunno.. I would love to but that would pretty much necessitate trailering and a bunch of hasty work. The 76 I'd need to slam back together and skip a few steps regarding final paint, to be redone later...which I don't mind and may be a good litmus test prior to "final" assembly and prettying up. The 61 is up to the task but has no useable top and is still rocking a 1F and 3 speed and I've been in an ongoing battle for many months with 2 states over the title... I would totally rally that out solo, but Shelley is not gonna miss it (and I'm not gonna let her), so if we do bring a 40 it would likely be on a trailer and we'd do some easy days on account of having a 7 month old, a 3 year old, the dog and us two packed into a 40.
Well it sounds like the 60 will have to do.... I forgot you have little ones. I hope to see you and the family again Klaus.
I was toyin around with drivin my 1963 stock FJ40LV for SAS#4. got some maintenance to do on her.
If I don't get my '71 FJ40 build done I'd definitely consider bringing my '76 FJ40 again this year - we need more FJ40 participation IMHO.
SAS always needs more Georgia people! Go Dawgs!
Hell yeah, is it August yet?
I'm gonna let that slide just this once.
You may have thought I forgot but I didn't!
