My condolences Ben.

I'm very interested in the HJ 60. Does anybody know anything about it. Usual hassle for me being on the wrong island.

Sorry that was supposed to be a private message. Wondered why I didn't get a reply. Doh

Do you still have any 40 parts for sale. Derek

F##k it ill buy tappy talk. What mine is showing is as Chris described. Big blocks of each heading. I've no idea if there is new posts etc. I'm all for change gents, I'm not that old yet. Once again I am passionate about this Forum and set myself the challenge to learn how to post...

Sorry I wasn't very clear. When the forum changed over I was able to see it almost like the old one. I could just hit new posts etc. All I can get now is what I assume is a mobile version. It doesn't let me see anything without going into it. I realise its not a big problem in the grand...

Glad it's not just me. I didn't realise how much pleasure I got out of reading the posts. Ill need to take a day off just to catch up with Ben's posts.

Can somebody tell me if its possible to access the forum on my Iphone without this v thing coming up. I've gone from being on the forum every day to hardly bothering. To add insult to injury I'm gutted that I donated towards my own problems. Cheers Derek

I am looking for a 61 series Landcruiser . I don't care what condition the bodywork is in as long as the engine is good. I am aware of what they are worth etc. If we could use the PM system for initial contact please. Thanks Derek

I will help you free up space by taking that old 61 off your hands.

Saw this in Tescos. Apparently supplements didn't have full Vat on them in the past.

I'll happily give whatever's needed.

Congratulations Ben I can't wait to see the trips you do over in OZ. I think you should set up a tour company in OZ, forget that chippy malarkey.

Re: Anyone bored enough to help me? Big thanks from me Graham, I had no idea how to do this. Derek

Didn't know that. Cheers mate

Don't want to seem dumb but what does it get them.

I'm local but I've heard such bad reports about them that I haven't bothered going to look at them. Don't get me wrong I have spoke to the owner and he's a good guy, just unrealistic.

Classic. I'd love that in a poster.

Great to see a 60 saved. Lovely job.

Andy as the ad says, I saw this and thought of you. I wondered would you go for it.

F&&k me Ben, you're like a machine. It amazes me what you do of a day.

Could he do a set for a 60 series.

I can't do it straight away but I have the use of a CNC router and I intend to make my own set of panels and tailgate storage. I have sourced the same plastic Kevin uses locally, just have to get my finger out and find the latches. Mine will be for my 62 but I don't see a problem with doing...

Feck, I didn't think they would make that much on it. Maybe he will take the £800.

What about offering the garage the £500 to not take it.

I always used to make a big show of putting the trip back to zero and recording the mileage in front of them. I left my fathers Porsche in once and they put over two hundred miles on it. I still can imagine them in it, doing a Ferris Bueler.

I laughed out loud when I saw this Andy. I am going to order some from them tonight to do the bottom half of my van body with. I have seen it used and if the stuff is put on right it really is effective. I will be doing the floor inside and out on my 60 with it. In fact I intend to do the...

Please do not post anything disheartening about OZ. :D The only thing that keeps me going at times is the daydream of starting again in OZ like Ben. In fact I may assume his identity and head down myself.

Thankyou Steven I haven't laughed like that in a long time. I use an iPhone so it hit a chord with me.

Sorry, Andy cruiser guy is his name here.

Hi Rogier, I have never heard of a Hyundai rack fitting a 60. If yours is not available to measure,( reference your other post) I can measure mine. Andy on here was asking about racks for 60,s recently so he might be the one to tell you. To be honest I don't know what a H11 or H200 is but...

Graham not trying to hijack your thread, but you've gave me the idea. Has any one seen that sort of van up close and do you think it would be possible to make one.

I told my wife to stop messing around as I have a business to run. I never knew she knew that many curse words. Good Luck with it all.

I hadn't seen his stuff before, very impressive. I am going to be putting on tubular bumpers and side steps etc, so had thought of using them as tanks. But I'll probably go with the Savage ones.

The company beside my unit recharge extinguishers. I can ask them next week when they open if you haven't found out by then. I like the idea of using them as I haven't been able to get tanks small enough to go where I want them.

A second on Euro. I have used them myself and the parts came from France quicker than they do from England.

Thank you for that Chas.

Merry Christmas to everyone.

Andy I priced with some of the transporters that were on EBay and was very pleased with some of the quotes. Failing that, I can ask the fella that brings my wagons over to me.

I live in the wrong country, I was thinking how cheap £1235 was. Everythings relative I suppose. Glad you got sorted, I really enjoy reading your thread.

Thanks for the info gents. I have nobody that thinks working in a cold shed in the middle of December is fun, so I have to move axles and engines about myself. I have always fancied a skid steer like Ben has but it seems a bit overkill. I am going to see the inventory of a garage that's...

I had thought of an overhead set up but it doesn't give me the mobility I need.

I'm finally getting around to the rebuild of my cruiser. One small problem is I have already killed one crane lifting what was essentially just an engine block out So my question is what do you guys use when you're taking engines in or out. I've seen a lot of them rated at 1000 kg + but you...

Never stops me. It's not that expensive to get them moved. I'm pretty sure that wagon is owned by guys out of our club.

I could do it for you. Send me your details by pm. Derek

Welcome to another proper Landcruiser owner.

Thanks Jumah I really enjoyed that. Never thought I'd be putting Libya on my list of countries I need to see. Derek

I'd like to come to this one. Only problem I can see is if I break something major getting home could be tricky. I may have too bring two wagons. :lol:

That needs to be sitting in my yard.
