Doh! Realized I posted to the wrong thread. Meant to put in what have you DONE to your cruiser this week. Haha. Oh well here’s a picture from the trip, coming over Cerro Gordo peak, Inyo mountains.

I can't wait until I can contribute to this thread. I spend every day with my Land Cruiser but it hasn't been driven since I backed it into the garage for a tune up and transmission swap. Compression numbers and "while I'm at it" turned that into a full build. However, we decided not to make it a frame off after all, so now the focus is on getting it together and back on the road. Hopefully, I'll be driving it by the end of summer.

I think that you are in the right place . Awesome lineup!! This makes me motivated to get mine out of the garage.

I hear ya and keep going! Mine is up on jack stands at the moment while I work on the steering. It’s too hot to be out in the garage today but I am motivated to finish this thing.

What a nice gathering of (Dune?) Beige Cruisers!

Took a morning drive about an hour outside of the city to enjoy some dirt roads and sunshine.

I spotted this one earlier today while I was out.

Likewise. That is an excellent quality photo, especially for being taken 40 years ago!

The framing is almost perfect, with excellent use of the rule of thirds. The light direction helps emphasize the shape of the subject while aiding in the telling of the story by showing the truck driving into the direction of light. This also creates a positive tension and leading lines.

Splendid technique in not only exposure but archival storage.

Good work and thanks for sharing @HooDoo

The film stock my memories are on.

I’ve got a brick of it waiting for never again…
Mama took our Kodachrome away.
So sad.
