Imagine surfing through Craigslist and coming across a 1966 Jeep J3000 truck with an Alaskan camper. Of course, there is no photo. A quick phone call and the owner states that although it has 137,000 miles, it is pretty clean and in good shape overall. You know, the standard little old lady drove it only on Sundays story. So you decide to take a look and find a barn find Jeep truck and camper with only 13,500 miles! The seats, dash and pedals are all in great shape! F3X from Expedition Portal is one lucky SOB. This is exactly what happened to him. He has replaced the plug wires, battery and rebuilt the carb and plans to slowly fix the old girl up. Lets just say that I am very jelous of him!

We are actively looking for authors to research and write articles for Off Road Action. We are looking for people that have an interest in vintage vehicles and love talking about them. Each staff member has their own areas of specialty and we are looking to expand our knowledge base. The fact that we do not currently pay for articles is overshadowed by the fact that you get to see your name on the front page of Off Road Action! We are working on reimbursing our authors, but need for the advertising income to become a little larger first.
If you have been following this blog for a while, you know from our past articles on FJ45 Troopy’s that they are pretty rare in North America. As with any Toyota Land Cruiser, they tend to get eaten by rust. The restoration of this Land Cruiser for sale in Bend, Oregon appears be of great quality…of which the $39,500 price also dictates. As mentioned on Bring A Trailer, the engine has been swapped to a later 2F model. We tend to agree with them on changing the tires over to BFG all terrain or mud terrains. They seem to suit these unique vehicles a little better. Regardless, this is an excellant example of a Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 Troopy.
