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.
Can anyone tell us about this photo? It is tagged “Chevy Bomb Trucknn3”
We came across this 1966 Jeep CJ6 for sale in Austin, Texas on EWillys.com. It is hard to tell because of the small photos, but it looks to be in pretty good shape. I am kind of curious about the spring assisted seats, though.
Bill Sanders and Pete Springers from Four Wheeler magazine followed raced this Stroppe built Jeep CJ-7 in a number of desert races in the late 70’s. Their articles followed the buildup right through to the racing and repairs.
We found this 1965 International Scout 80 for sale on Bring A Trailer. Originally listed on this Salt Lake City KSL ad, the truck is in great shape for an asking price of only $9000. You really have to love the simple old trucks. What do you think?
The best buy for 73 and the toughest four letter word: Jeep. Here we have a great 1973 AMC Jeep J2000 truck dealer commercial that outlines all the options and important information about the truck. It is definatly worth watching the whole video!
Regular readers will remember our series of articles on early SUV’s such as Broncos and Blazers with popup campers. We recently came across this 1978 Ford Bronco with a popup camper. There is not much information in the ad, but the Bronco appears to be in good shape.
