Watched this with several of your comments this afternoon at work, hope it’s good for you!
 
“...there are more like it here.” Well, BAT, that’s a lie.

What a finish, was on the edge of my seat all the way to the end. I’m pleased with the sale.

The new owner immediately reached out to me. Turns out he has quite a few rigs and lives in South Dakota, so of course I sent him a link to the PP21. Here are some of the pics he shared. I’ll leave it at that and let him take it from here.

I have a real long story but I’ll make it short....

I’ve been chasing this one since 2016. At the time I had just scooped up 2x 45 lwb + a pig project. Another rig wasn’t in the cards, so I turned it onto my bud @bdyer12

Cruisin 605,

I'm taking a guess that you're the proud new owner of the Surf Wagon. From what I've seen, you're no stranger to Land Cruisers. I'm sure we're all looking forward to seeing more of it in the future and get you going to the Pig Parties. You bought a solid wagon and hopefully you enjoy it out on the trails.

Hi 👋 I’m Matt
I’m super excited to add Deo’s rig to my collection! As stated I’m from SD, Aberdeen to be exact. I operate a toyota dealership with my dad. He started the dealership in 1968, so my love for Land Cruisers has been born into me. My first vehicle was a red 82 FJ40 that I still have. I have a meeting in FL in February so I’m planning on driving the 🐷 home from there. I also hope to join you all at your PP21. This i8mud forum is a little confusing to me so I’ll work on figuring this out first.
 
Hi Matt. I’m Garth...I’ll be buying that 55 from you at some point, so thought I should introduce myself. Please take good care of it.

It’s not confusing, we are confused!
