There is always some dufus

Post by Dubble Trubble »

Who just can't listen to the words "DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH RUSHING FLOOD WATER"

Highway 84 between Cairo and Thomasville. From what I understand, several had to be plucked out of trees by helicopter...

I also wonder if you intentionally drove into this, would your insurance pay off, or just say "Dumb Arse"

What a fool! This would be good evidence natural elimination (Darwinian), only fortunately for him, there are some really good emergency workers that helped save his dumb arse. :smt009

If you need to get rid of it, send it down here to Monticello. I'm sure I could take care of her for you for a while.

I have always loved an FJ 40. Almost bought one as a teenager but the folks talked me out of it at the time. Looking back, then would have been the time to have one.

Well done on the restoring. :thumbup:

I restored one with my dad when I was 15, it was a '73. Took the hard top off and put a soft top on it. Will try to find some pics. Good job on the restoration! :thumbup:

Awesome looking Land Cruiser! :thumbup:
We had one for about 10 years and most of our kids learned to drive in it as it was virtually indestructible. Only time I do not miss it is during the summer.....that bad boy could get hot!
If you ever decide it needs a new home please call me!
It may be that my sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

whitebc and RHTFISH - Thanks again for the compliments! Appreciate it... :thumbup:

You are right about being indestructible.... It's a 79 and all original except for the wheels and tires and I'd like to go back to the original rims one day...... keeping it old school.... Checked compression a few months back and she was at 165-170.... runs like a sewing machine..... They don't make'm like they used too....


DT - Didn't mean to derail about the dufus!!!! Continue.....
