ExPo 60 Series Registry

Dances with Wolves

aka jk240sx
Great looking rig JoshH. I saw it on Steve's site and I must admit I spent way too much time ogling the pics. I've been really considering a 60 lately. I pitched the idea to my boss (wife), and she didn't even swing. She just gave me the look. I'm hoping she'll warm up to the idea after I get her to Cruiserfest next month.

Nice 60! I miss mine and a diesel would be muy bueno. Land Cruisers Direct is tempting me as well. Although, I'm in Spain right now and diesel cruisers are at my finger tips. Time will tell... I think my Hundy needs a friend!

Chuck B - I've heard that diesel 70 series pick ups are fairly common in Spain. Is that true?
PM me please if you feel you have the time, I'd be interested in a conversation about this.

Hey guys, first cruiser, first post. I'm just getting my build started, and looking forward to learning more about these awesome machines!

1. 1982 BJ60 (x2), 1 Root Beer Brown, the other is 2-tone Copper Penny and Rust.
2. Derek/TheMuffinMan
3. Had them about two months
4. 300,000km
5. So far haven't done much in the way of mods. Big plans though...
6. It'll be the family adventure rig once the transformation is complete.
7. Starting a build thread shortly. So far I've gutted the one with the good body and will be prepping it for paint soon.

Thank you much. Any luck swaying the boss since Cruiserfest?
