Hey guys!

I live in Peachtree Corners, been wrenching on rides my entire life, and I've loved Toyotas since I was old enough to hold a wrench.

- Step dad owned a 1980 FJ40 back in 82
- I owned a 1998 Toyota pickup in college (still regret getting ride of it)!

- Build threads listed below in my siginature
- Restoring a 1977 FJ40 (almost done)
- Next on the list is a 1970 FJ55
- We are a Toyota Family (see pics below)
- YouTube channel (Dirt Dauber Garage)

Here is a few pics

This is great. Thank you for organizing.

My name is Scott and I live in Marietta. I currently only own one Cruiser...a 97' black LX450 that I converted to a white Land Cruiser: Black LX450 converted to White LC - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/black-lx450-converted-to-white-lc.1004187/#post-11156400

I have been around long enough to have a ROTW thread from many years ago. I need to update it but here is a lot about my journey: Builds - ROTW - smittycrusher - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/rotw-smittycrusher.177747/page-4

330k on it now. Currently have a Slee 4' lift and 37s and a bunch of other goodies. It really is as done as it will ever be but will never be done. Ordered new 37s this week (Toyo Open Country MT).

I love the desert and try to spend as much time as possible out West. I have tens of thousands of miles tracked out West and happy to help anyone with trip plans to Colorado, Utah (my favorite), Wyoming, Montana, Arizona, Nevada, etc.

I am also on the Board of Directors for the Land Cruiser Heritage Museum in Salt Lake City. If you have any questions about this awesome collection, I am always happy to talk about that Cruiser wonderland.

Scott,

It is good to meet you!! You are in good company. We have two other FZJ80's in the group. I will let them introduce themselves, but WELCOME!! I am looking forward to checking out your build threads and The Land Cruiser Heritage Museum is on my bucket list, so I definitely want to hear all about it!

Our group is planning to meet again in March. I will send out the details soon!

Thank you. My bother's shop and his expertise has been essential to this build. I followed all the socials. Not too good with navigating Ih8mud. Looking forward to the May meet up with my Tundra until I get this Love Tractor on the road!

Greetings (my name is Pete), just found the group and I live in East Cobb/Marietta. Have had my ‘81 FJ40 now for about 4 years and really love everything about it. Fairly stock, but have added some unique touches that done take away from the balance too much. Would love to meet up with the group with the next meetup (following FB and IG now).
