Ironic because it’s a prado… if he really wanted to flex he would’ve got the LX

Spotted while looking for that stolen 62

That was on Marketplace years ago, and then wound up back there. Been sitting for years.

I also drove those couple blocks yesterday looking for the stolen 62, as well as the blocks on the east side of N Wash.

Lakewood, Monday 8/17. My wife sent this to me. She asked if I knew what year it was. Does anyone know what year(s) 60s were available in this silver color. Mine was a 1987.

While attending the Morgan Adams Foundation car events this weekend a visit to the Clive Cussler car collection museum was a high point. ‘30s and ‘40s collector cars aren’t exactly my wheelhouse but good taste is timeless and some of the cars were extremely tasteful. Of particular note, a Bentley Blower race car from 1930 put me in the mind of a Baja set up Lexus, both ready for terrain more suited to donkeys than F1 cars. Something that attracted my attention was the suspension’s cord wrapped leaf springs that appeared to have been done by a highly skilled artisan. The springs, similar to a 40 or 60 series Cruiser, but with what looked to be about 2” travel, were as luxuriously appointed as the rest of the car. Cool! That’s the supercharger and SU carbs sticking out the front.

On Kingston Peak yesterday...

There's was a group of 5 electric dumpsters. Surprisingly they weren't friendly, had no trail etiquette and seemed utterly confused about people being mad at them for driving on the tundra at the mailbox.

They sure did! Thanks for letting me know.

I don't have my glasses on... Is this @Inukshuk ?

That guy's been in my neck of the woods for a minute. I believe there's a phone number or something on the side of it so you can rent it.

And I mean if your gonna be a Rubber Tramp, you might as well do it in style.

This was parked in my daughters neighborhood near Fort Walton beach.

I'm curious what the purpose was for the cordage on the leaf springs...
Noise deadening perhaps?
