In one unusual outback town, everything is subterranean – from churches to campsites. As the world heads for 2.7C (4.9F) of global warming, should we be heading underground?
No, it was fairly difficult actually. Gearbox was off, cylinder timing got eventually worse no matter what I did, and the steering column just wouldn’t stay aligned. Fun car for a while though. Ended up leaving it parked in an inner suburb unlocked hoping it would get stolen so I could claim the insurance. It didn’t get stolen. Ended up selling it for $1500.
Very interesting. I’ve always liked the idea of owning and driving the old BJ42 ones but they are few and far between. The more "affordable ones have lots of rust while the good condition ones are very expensive.
I sometimes think that this is one of the few occasions where my idea should stay an idea. :p
Nice. Good condition FJs are hard to find nowadays. Were they easy vehicles to drive?
