ever wonder what happened to your old rig(s)?

[thenag]

body and frame of mine going to be sold as scrap;

final moab run

cut up

I have only sold one vehicle in my life... First f150 was sold to a guy from mexico, I had a taurus that I donated to the kidney foundation, had a civic that was stolen, bought a non running f350 for parts for the bronco, and the bronco is being scrapped,

I keep wanting to have an animated gif made of the bronco and the xj crashing together and when the dust settles the "new xj" is sitting there.

Hmmmmm....anyone seen my old XJ around? I sold it about 4 1/2 years ago now. Last I heard it was somewhere in Price (about 2 years ago).

Mine are all parked out back

Sadly that's almost true.....

me too. I do know where most of my parts went. I almost bought the XJ that got my motor.

The owner of my old 4runner found me on expeditionutah.com just last week. It's nice to see that it is still straight and in good working order. The owner lives in Tooele and takes it out often it sounds like.

I was going to mention I saw it on the hwy out there as I was coming home from the MMP the other day, looked good


I actually bumped into my first FJ40 the other day. A customer of mine bought it and is slowly bringing it back to life at his parents place, literally a couple of blocks from my parents house where I built it when I was in high school (96-98). I sold it in 2001 and its been through a few owners since then, a bit has changed but its mostly still in good shape and just needs some TLC to bring her back to life

I still see quite a few of my other ex's. My part-timer Josh has a SOA blue FJ60 (Cyprus) that was mine. Solidfrontaxle here on RME has an old FJ55 (Big Bear). A couple other customers have 60's and 62's I've sold (Zepplin and Whitey) and another local customer has the 80 Series I sold (never named it. Fun bouncing back into them, like old girlfriends

I think I know where that is. If it is the one I am thinking of, the only part of the exo that is still there is the frong part and the sliders. I will have to ask him when I see him.

Speaking of wondering where past vehicles are, I had I '72 Blazer that I put a ton of time into and sold around 2000 or 2001. I cannot find any pictures of it, but it would be very identifiable since the gas filler was moved down the body and put behind a gas door from a ford escort. The radio antenna was also frenched into the body behind the driver door.

I wish I still had it.:sick:

Yeah, that exo definitely needed some changes and more triangulation around the cab....let me know what you find out!

Bought it, worked on it, sold it, and the guy who bought it worked it over. It may be running again, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Wonder if anyone has seen this one. I sold it when we left Ogden back in 1996. Still miss her...

Man!! Memories!! I was wondering whatever happened to my old samurai, I sold it to a guy in Oregon, and sold it with a full YJ spring kit, I really wanted to see what happened to it.

That thing was geared lower than crap, (5:14s in the t case, 5:12s in the axles) and crawled over anything. I was really surprised with what it could do. I always wanted to see what it had become.

Then the TJ

Though it was the biggest pile, and P.I.T.A I had ever bought, I do miss it. Took it to EJS twice, and broke both times, doing nothing...simply ridiculous. I sold it to a guy in Idaho, and do wonder what it became.

Then the latest one, everyones favorite truck, the "Purple Flame"

Sold that to a guy in Battle mountain NV, and last I heard, he was enjoying it, and getting ready to put the dual case in.
