al at cruiser fest. Old school rising Sun people will know. I forgot to ask if he still has the baby blue K car

 

[nuclearlemon]

worth a post...what to do with a baby cruiser (samurai).

 

[nuclearlemon]

missed a photo because i was watching train flaggers...dark maroonish 40, beautiful condition, black rims with hubcaps and all...anyone on here?

Sweet all stock. Pretty sure the person works at City Market on Patterson in GJ, it's here all the time. And they apparently don't want to sell it and I suspect are getting annoyed with the jerk who keeps leaving his number under their wiper. It still has the Burt Toyota plate on the tailgate. It's a 5 speed with the little console between the buckets. So should be an SR5 but no badges.

I know we've had to have crossed paths sometime, Mr. MTB Toyota Guy. At the Lunch Loops trailhead, Grand Junction.

A bonus International D1100. Very well done. It's got a mile long floor shifter about as tall as the top of the dash, truck drivers were gentlemen, no leaning over to shift back then. Well just a long as you were tall and had arms as long as Dean's.

Random coming together of 2 rhd cruisers.

 

[Inukshuk]

The first three were just while driving around last week. The Tesla Roadster was Saturday in Highland's Ranch.

Love that Hilux!! Israel?

77 fj40 spotted, purpose-used for sure
neat truck

Spotted a few minutes ago at Einstein’s Bagels in Lowry. A well-used truck for sure! I’m curious as to what the owner looks like...

 

[DaveInDenver]

But his bezel is right way up and the truck looks straight, so he's clearly not a Neanderthal even if his paint scheme is, well, what it is. Clearly form follows function and I'm guessing it's still an important part of his lifestyle. Probably out cruising alleys for new tires to put on his 1973 Volvo 142.

I kinda dig it. I should've taken a picture of the interior. Every space is filled (including the passenger seat) except for the driver's seat. Camping supplies, a backpack, spare parts and tools, etc...I don't think I would make the same choices he did, but I respect the fact that he's letting his freak flag fly!

 

[DaveInDenver]

Yup! You know it.

 

[Basaltfj40]

That camo rig used to live in woody creek, I recognize that paint job and roof rack anywhere......

 

[DaveInDenver]

Parked at the Grand Junction library this afternoon. German plates.

 

[Jenny Cruiser]

Dachau plates. Link to their Morocco trip. https://www.bimobil.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/ReiseberichtSüdmarokko_Ruetz.pdf

 

[DaveInDenver]

Cool!

 

[DaveInDenver]

F'n phone blurred the important shot. But RHD, mustard, diesel, 1979+ (square bezel) Troopy. Utah plates, Airtop tent, awning. Northbound on US50 near the mall today. It's in really nice condition, assumed it is restored.

 

[Stuckinthe80s]

Damn Dave! 2 cool rigs 2 days in a row?

a regular guy, like the rest of us.
not particularly talkative...
experienced.
would have shared a beer or 5 to hear the story,
but then, that could be said from me of about anyone.
