I apologize for the Brittany Spears reference, my bad.
However, I just had the opportunity to purchase my old fj40 back from whom I bought it. It may be silly, but in just a few years we made a lot of memories in that rig. It's a 1972, 1978 engine swap (2f), weber carbed, flowmaster, SOA on 35's, (done by the late Wardens) with a 8274 winch. It is far from perfect, need new shocks immediately, but the engine runs strong as an ox.
I don't need something else to spend money on, but when my 5 year old daughter said to me, "daddy, you have to buy the white cruiser back so I can get married and drive off in my wedding dress in it" I figured it was worth the investment.
So another saga begins. . .
First priorities:
1. Shocks (would love the 7100's, but I think I need to go cheaper)
2. 2inch receiver and wiring for towing the Adventure trailer.
3. Metal Tech Family Cage. . .
That will keep me busy for a while.
Here's a pic of all three, obviously, it's the white one.
keep you posted.
