This article we posted back in the summer about a Toyota Land Cruiser Troopy for sale is still popular. However, I think I like this 1983 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 Troopy even better. Maybe it is the pop up tent that I like, because it is definatly not the colour. The left hand drive is definatly interesting. I wonder how long it would take to get used to driving it? I would prefer it to have a diesel engine, but the stock 2F runs on both gasoline and propane. That should help out the fuel milage a little

Baby Blue 1966 Ford Bronco For Sale
This baby blue uncut 1966 Ford Bronco needs a little work here and there, but overall is in pretty good shape. As per the photos on the ebay ad, there is some surface rust here and there, but when you consider that the early Bronco is 44 years old, it is in pretty damn good shape for an unrestored vehicle.

Survivor 1969 Ford Bronco For Sale
At first thought, $6000 for this 1969 Ford Bronco posted on Classic Broncos.com may seem like a lot. After all, it is just an old, stock, early Bronco. However, this changes when you look at the photos. When is the last time that you saw a rust free early Bronco that was not either restored or modified? This is a great start for somebody looking to start slowly restoring an uncut classic Bronco. There is a lot of new stock replacement parts, like ignition and brake parts. Of course, as with any vehicle of this age, there is some dents and scrapes. Still, I think it is a great deal. What do you think?

70’s Pacific Northwest 4×4 Rally Memories
Dave from Ewillys.com always has some great articles, but he has outdone himself with his new article about Pacific Northwest off road races and playdays from the 70’s really hit home for me. I grew up attending the same events in British Columbia and Washington with my family in the 70’s and early 80’s. Of course, the obstacle course and sand drags were popular, but some of the most loved events were things like the potato stab, blindfold driver race, and the backwards race. One of my favourite stories is when my parents were at a playday Calgary, Alberta. One of the events was where the co-driver would hold a bowl full of water while the driver tried to navigate the off road course as fast as possible. The team with the most amount of water left in the bowl was the winner. My parents were making great time until they came to a rough section. For some reason, my Dad forgot to lock in the hubs and they were stuck with only the rear tires spinning. My mother proceeded to dump the bowl of water on over my Dad’s head. Of course, the local city news was there to capture the moment and it was blasted over the local news for a few days. Do they still hold events like this in your area? What were some of your favourite events?
