well my fj55 that some of you knew as big stinky has been sold and i now have an 85 toy mini . the mini may not be what stinky was but it is none the less wild . i just finished the rear four link rear tube bed and exo cage .. never fear there is an fj40 hi tech buggy in the works so i am not gone from cruisers for good .
for those of you that dont remember stinky you can see it here

i say good bye to an old friend

who bought that fuel pump eating turd? lol, j/k allen. jIMMy

so what was your opinion of the 4bt?
i have a buddy who is putting one in a tj, but won't be done for a while
did you like it?
too loud?
too much vibration
fast enough?
problems?
thanks

in a trail only rig i would say very cool very unstopable torque
for a rig to be on the street it is not very cool
it is extremly loud it vibrates nuts and bolts loose is is not the fastest thing going . i would nto recomend that engine for a street driven rig !

I just put up a link to Nick's story and pics from the pig run (http://www.birfield.com/~morgan/nicks_rubi_run/index.php). There are some good pics of stinky in there.

I dug that truck! You are going to have to do something sick with that mini to follow up.

:taps:

I hope it is honored by its new owner.

:sad:

Alan,

Sorry to hear that you no longer have Big Stinky. My boys were bummed when I told them. They still talk about running the ‘con with the pigs ... and especially Stinky.

Sad to see stinky go but the pick up will get it, that is until you Super U Get it in another Cruzah.
Until Greenhorn, late. :smokin:

I sure hope that the new owner will drive Stinky like Alan built it to be driven! I am really impressed with Alan's vision and skills -- can't wait for the next creations to come out of his shop.

Don't worry, Stinky went to a good home. I was just out wheeling with it (and it's owner) last month. It got to see the rocks up close and personal. :D

Damn Alan, I know it went to a good home, nd the ebst of luck with the Mini. That thing is BAD ASS!!!! and I know yo will wheel the piss out of it. I can't wait to get the Bronco done, so that I can come up there and play.
