Nice cage! Nice truck, for that matter!:cool: Does the truck have some sort of advanced guidance system? Seems to be missing the directional input device:rasta:

Sorry, Peter, I could not resist - must be in a Krusty mood!:rolleyes: The project is looking good; cant wait to see it out on the trail, as I am sure you must be anxious also. Is that a D60 up front?

Best be careful backing up, you might not even notice when you roll over the brown one...

Ya no kidding check you lugs every now and then for small cars stuff between them. Great looking 45, I like most other Cruiser guys would love to have one! Good looking cage!

LOOKING GOOD PETER, I LIKE IT ALOT. IM NOT BIG ON THE GRILL HOOP, BUT TO EACH HIS OWN. OTHERWISE, VERY NICE LOOKING TRUCK, LOOKS VERY STOUT.

SOMEDAY, I WILL FIND A 911 TURBO WITH BODY DAMAGE FOR AN AFFORDABLE PRICE, AND THEN WILL HAVE A JET BLACK 911 SLEEPER, SOMEDAY. SEEMS YOUR FAMILY HAS GOOD TASTE IN TRANSPORTATION.

Nice 45! One of these days I will aquire one. I can still shoot myself in the foot for not buying one when I had the chance. Some of the things that we do we regret later on, oh well, live and learn! :skull:

looks sweet!!!

i think i am gunna build me one of these, but in a soft top, with tube rear and full cage........

yeah

that is what i will do!!

does anybody know if the FJ45 body, will bolt to an FJ40 chassis? cause i have a chassis already off one of my old wrecks, it is bent at the rear, but i can hack that off, tube it out and make it around 110"- 112" long, get a tub thats badly bent for cheap, and sell the 40 cab that i have thats good! and have my own BJ47....NICE

I had a chance to check out Peter's fj45, it's one of the cleanest 45 pickup I've seen. And I almost got a heart attack after knowing how little he paid for such beauty. Some guys got all the luck!

Hey FC, you bone head ! don't you mean "consumption" :D

I think I did a bit too much consumption myself :beer: :beer: :smokin:

Now I'm glad I didn't wheel the trail after dark ;)

BTW thanks for the great tasting tri-tip, I vote you the chef for the next run !

I think it will. At least my factory specs show the cab mounts are no different...
Turbo 3B ? mmmh... :rolleyes:

Hopefully I'm gonna pick my $1500 BJ42 parts rig this weekend... :rolleyes:
