Nice! That second pic is "pomade" (Paul May) owner of Equipt Expedition Outfitters, and from our local group. His 40 is very nice.

I love all cruisers, and have enjoyed watching you guys build yours over the years, but this one is special to me because it's mine.

With the old 36's

bjack · 11-02-2007, 10:55 AM

This one belongs to a buddy of mine. His attention to detail is amazing.

brooksy1 · 11-02-2007, 01:36 PM

First 1 is mine which is currently going thru a total overhaul - staying full body, 4 link f&r, coilovers, 44's, new cage (allow 4 seats), chev, etc.

This 1 is my favourite, it is 1 of the best 40's in Australia. I love full body rigs

i dont know if it is because i all had to see the thing when i went into the garage or what but this one was always my fav. everytime i see the damn thing it makes me want a 40.

ScottFJ40 · 11-11-2007, 05:38 AM

I took pics of this one yesterday, sweet!

Okiyota · 11-11-2007, 02:45 PM

I really like this one, very simple but effective (at least from the pic i have seen), i like seeing ones that arent overly built, where they still look like a cruiser, and could be driven down the road.... Nice work Brimy.

brimy311 · 11-11-2007, 04:05 PM

This is my favorite picture of my cruiser:

I don't any pictures of it not wheeling...I will have to take some.

Okiyota · 11-23-2007, 09:59 PM

I really like DM's 40... its the green one, not sure who owns the blue one, but it looks nice too from what i can tell.

ginericfj80 · 11-24-2007, 08:16 AM

The blue one is 76Forty's (another Idaho guy), when it was mine it was pretty stock and Mustard yellow, it has come a long ways. DM's is one of my favorites. It is a such a simple build yet it works flawlessly. It amazing the angles he's had it at all with a Motorcraft carb.

I have a lot of 40s that I really like, Adam's old Money Pit, Jack Rice's 45 Truggy, Jack's 40 is no slouch either, and I really like the look of stock wheels with an aggressive tire and a dull paint job. Just real simple and industrial looking.

I did a build thread over on mud, but I stopped after my propane system and alternator was stolen out of my rig. Don't really feel comfortable showing people what I do my rig these days because of this isolated incident.

My FJ40

Okiyota · 11-26-2007, 11:10 AM

Thats too bad, its a sweet 40 for sure.

Bigfkr: Do you have any more pics of your half doors, a profile shot with them on maybe??

eshelbyk · 11-29-2007, 02:28 PM

That was a horrible editing job I did back in the day.. went back and redid it from the original. Hope this looks a little better-

bigfkr · 12-02-2007, 08:24 AM

Here's a little better pic of the half door. They're just some old doors I cut the tops off of...
