That "older dude with the santa beard" was me. It's a '75 basket case that my daughter and I are bringing back to life. I was on my way to (or from) Home Depot to get steel to make brackets for the rear seat I'm installing. I picked up a nice leather bench seat from a Chrysler Town & Country.
Post up a thread on that when you get a chance, I'd like to see how it comes together for you.
Somebody was driving a red FJ40 on the highway just north of Portland yesterday. It had a hardtop, and it looked like it was of the '76-'78 vintage.
Saw a clean, rust free, well-equipped, brown 60 at the Methuen Home Depot today.

I repeatedly see a beige 62 at the Somerville Home Depot. I think it's someone that works there.
Southbound on 95 near exit 73 in CT blue FJ40
Ok..... you asked for pics.....the 1st is my Land Cruiser "fleet" the 2nd and 3rd are the '75 shortly after rescuing it.
more pics..... 1st is Tranny and rebuilt T-case ready to install. 2nd is with new lift kit, original seats and butt-ugly bumpers removed. 3rd is with original bumper and new driver.
I'm currently in Tenn, will show pics of back seat installation when I return.

Great googily moogily!!! When Kina said 73 I wrongly assumed we were talkin 40's. Details on our Canadian(?) friend!
Not Canadian. New Zealand.
Yeah, left hand drive, not Canadian. Had it shipped from New Zealand with help and advice from Ernie. (Thanks again) It's a BJ73 with 130,000 miles on it. In pretty good shape, but smokes on startup. (Valve stem seals and or guides need replacing) Currently seving as my wifes DD.

Finally met the owner. It was parked in front of the bar I was at for happy hour. Met the owner and he said he bought it off of a guy in NY. There was a fall gathering sticker from 2008. So the new owner didn't know about the club but does now. Have him the website and stuff. Small world.

Yep that's John Rutherford's rig. Sweet 60. Tires look different. Is the new owner from around here?

Yeah he's local. His brother has a built T-100 and he has a Tacoma. I'm pretty sure I see his brother going down route 34 on the way home from work. Not too many lifted T-100 around here.
