Had that FJ40 over 20 years, kinda miss it, but the Tacoma for the most part gets er done. Don't miss having to order parts from hundreds of miles away, then getting the wrong part.

89 Samurai. Basically Stock except for the Harley Davidson Carb conversion. Not that a Samurai has power, but did you notice a gain with the Harley carb? After regearing and bigger tires the Harley carb is my next move. I'm thinking about going to a My-Side 2 with a 44mm Harley carb.
When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

After regearing and bigger tires the Harley carb is my next move. I'm thinking about going to a My-Side 2 with a 44mm Harley carb. I used the myside 1 conversion. I went ahead and got the kit that included the carb that was already set up correclty. I costs more than just finding a used Harley carb, but it was worth it to me. It came with every part needed including the fuel line filters, manual choke, throttle cable end, brackets, hoses, clamps etc. I'm not a mechanic in any sense of the word, and I followed the directions and installed it quite easily. My factory carb was a mess so yes I got quite a power boost. I can go 75 on the hwy and it will climb straight up without stalling. The manual choke is great. Fires right up in the winter and I also pull it out when I want to just crawl up a hill in low range. Samurais are awesome. They are cheaper to buy and maintain than a UTV/Side by side. street legal, have heaters and will go anywhere.

This old ('84) Jeep Cherokee would go just about anywhere. I drove it to the bottom of the April Gulch road, and all the way to Lake Como. Those are both axle-breaking roads in Colorado that my newer pickup is just too big to even attempt. I'm not even sure if those roads are still open. KC
Wind in my hair, Sun on my face, I gazed at the wide open spaces, And I was at home.

Someone out there now has a very tidy toy.
We all know Rolls-Royces are supposed to be decadent. But deadly? That’s exactly what this rare 1925 Phantom I is, what with its elephant rifle and hand-cranked machine gun in tow. Now that’s stopping power.
The “Tiger Car” hitting the block Saturday at Barrett-Jackson’s Las Vegas auction is based on a 1925 Rolls-Royce Torpedo Sports Tourer and was commissioned by India’s Umed Singh II.
For maharajas in the late 19th and early 20th century, dropping serious coin on customized cars wasn’t common, it was expected. Coachbuilt bodywork, plush interiors, and flashy colors were the norm. High-powered weaponry typically wasn’t on the options list, however. But when Singh, the maharaja of Kotah from 1889 to 1940 and an avid game hunter, needed a new vehicle, he ordered his Rolls with taller tires, searchlights front and rear, and gun racks.
Then he really went wild. The car, powered by an 8.0-liter six-cylinder engine, tows a .45-caliber hand-cranked machine gun. A double barrel pistol hangs from the side, and there’s an elephant gun mounted on the rear bumper. Just in case.
However, hunting in red Roller must’ve been difficult, which is why the car originally was painted grey. The color change is one reasons the maharaja’s ride isn’t expected to fetch more than $1 million. Despite the vintage arsenal, hardcore collectors want their toys all original.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.
