The 40 has a file name of frosty so I'm gonna assume it belongs to someone with that screen name :emb:

Bent and Twisted Fab Tshirt coming your way.....what size?

Funny, I was hoping Harsh would find this thread. He gave the Aggie boy the final clue. I actually owned that 60 and built it from stock for about a year. Sold it for 10k and bought the redhead a phat diamond for our engagement......that was 8 years ago :eek:

WRONG!

The green FJ55 with Volvo portals is Brian Steens, though dieselcruiserhead was on the trail with us that day ;) (can't remember Brians username though). The Cruiser originally belonged to Royal Rose, whom put the Cummins 6AT into it, Brian swapped the portal axles and took it on his "epic" trip through Utah. Last I heard he was in Moscow Idaho going to school and fighting fires in the summers? Dieselcruiserhead and I had lunch with him a year or so ago?

The second exo-chopped tan FJ60 is Olly Bradstreets (username = cruiser ??)

Wow, Rainey's Zebranator. Musta been mid 90's? You know there was an orange & white one, setup almost exactly the same as Rainey's, owned by John Byrd.
