That's what I'm talking about!

I can't wait 'til 80s get cheap enough to chop and wheel.

If I didn't have my 55 anymore, I'd be looking for a rolled FZJ80 to make into a trail toy.

I love traybacks but man that thing is just
UTE-GLY!!!

If I lived in CA or CO or UT, I would build an 80 to wheel. Up here its just too tight.

But if I were to chop one, I like the the topless 60 concept. I think I would have a rear passenger seating area and then a toolbox area behind the rear seats with a rack on top of that...
