In the shop
It’s a secret! That’s about 50k ~ northeast out of Christina lake. 1k long tunnel with a bend in the middle you can’t see any light. It’s also caved in a few times the last few years and smells of rat in there.
Haha sounds way too far away for me

"Roll some coal" in there and help that tunnel remember the good ol' days!
Or maybe just the sound of an earth shaking Toyota diesel will suffice.
Have good holidays!
If there's been cave ins already, I think I'd want to limit the earth shaking..."Roll some coal" in there and help that tunnel remember the good ol' days!

On the way up…
After loading up some 40 parts…
Glad I was on the way home… about 11:30 am.
I’m finally getting the brakes working properly now that I have new callipers and pads on all 4 corners, and have pushed about a litre of brake fluid while bleeding (&flushing) the brakes.
I was surprised when I got to the grocery store and found this can still sitting on the fender.
I’d put it down while loading our older dog in and forgot about it. It didn’t get blown or shaken off in the 2.5km trip. I must have done something right with the suspension… it certainly isn’t the 30ish year old Rancho 5000 shocks.

@seapotato do you have anything to do with the reason a can won’t slide off the fender? Some rare form of magnetic field to avoid spilling wobbly pops?
The flat surfaces on a 40 are irresistible.
Once made it to Ladysmith from downtown Nanaimo with 3 beer bottles on my fender and another couple on the bumper.
After that, I started doing a quick walk around before leaving for work at 5 am, because it wasn't just me leaving them there. ****ers
Again. Irresistible flat surfaces.
Would have been embarrassing if there had been anyone around at that hour when they all fell off and shattered at the lights...
And probably expensive if it'd been a Mountie
( For the record, I wasn't drunk or even hungover, just didn't think to check when climbing into the truck in the dark.

I once left a gallon sized pot, with a tomato plant in it, on the back bumper of the ambulance. I was about 10 minutes down the Pat Bay highway before I remembered and pulled over and took it off the bumper.The flat surfaces on a 40 are irresistible.

Forgot about this a couple days back
10 years ago.
Hardly changed a thing.
Did not think I'd own a 60 this long.
Especially when I bought it as a donor.

C'mon, post a now pic!!
Oh fine...
See? Hardly any changes
Rare moment of sun. Not that I'm complaining about a rainy August, but *******. That was a rainy August.

Hmmm, one could be accused of a VIN swap!
Conversion to s***ty 1982 bj60 is almost complete
Renewed insurance yesterday. Still says RHD...
Didn't exactly have the brightest spark doing the paperwork so I didn't say anything. Probably needs an inspection to correct that.
Not a can of worms I felt like diving into.
Find some paste eater and tell them it was an error... you don't have any idea why it says RHD... take a look at it in the parking lot, it's clearly a LHD... Mistakes are made all the time. Like when they entered all the digits on my odometer... and when I reinsured they said the mileage was lower than it was last year. Fortunately I had the email & picture I sent them and they were able to "correct" the problem. Now and forever more, all the digits (including then 1/10ths) must be entered and they don't know how to correct it.Conversion to s***ty 1982 bj60 is almost complete

If it requires an inspection, find a shop that won't give you grief about it.
RHDs are usually more expensive to ensure than their equivalent LHD counterparts.

Eh, I'm not worried about it. This wasn't the person to ask to correct an "error".
Particularly sunny disposition, and you don't get to be her size by volunteering for extra work...
I'll see if I remember in a year.

New cars are looking too similar…
Or is it just me.
I'm convinced there's only 1 person designing cars these days. And trucks.
Front clip of a Dodge, Ford or Toyota, if it wasn't for the emblem it'd just be a guess most of the time.
