Looking for a certain Pig

[OzX]

Was mine actually

The day I bought it:

The day back from the paint shop:

When I sold it, it had powdercoated gray wheels with 33" BFG KMs, all bumpers, etc. The interior still needed to be done. Would like to try and get it back. I think I sold it back in '95 or '96? IIRC the guy who bought it was a camera man, his name may have been Stephan Pizzo?

ANybody seen it ?

TIA!

Did you post over on IH8MUD.com as well? that is where the cruisers dwell, you may find somebody that knows it there as well.

There are a few hits at Google under Pizzo Photography.

Found the guy on Facebook! here's his reply:

Still got the FJ55. After a V8 and 5 spd conversion, drove it coast to coast, border to border plus another 9000 miles in Mexico including a Baja and Copper Canyon run. She's in the spa now getting a 4 disc conversion and dyno matting.

It's been a lot of fun and occasional pain. Thanks for getting me started.



Hope he joins here and posts some picts - I sent him the link to ExPo

Doesn't sound like you're getting it back...

 

[hieronymus]

I feel a new resto project coming up....

 

[ChuckB]

I was going to say it wasn't the one I had. I feel your pain, I want mine back too!!

 

[tacollie]

I feel your lost pig woes. I want mine back.

I took my piggy out for a spin today. 300 miles into Montana and back to visit another pig owner!

This picture is from last September in Chiapas, Mexico. My piggy is well traveled!

So awesome....

Amazing you were able to track down the current owner, how cool is that. I heart pigs. If I could ever find one clean enough to warrant keeping I'd be all over it.

My old piggy aka "Big Bear"



Belongs to solidfrontaxle now and he has done a killer job cleaning it up


Of course their is always dieselcruiserheads piggy in nap time mode
