RTB Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 You're driving from Kansas ... in a Datsun? Good luck and may the force be with you. No, I'll trailer the datsun and all the parts. Make the trip in the Land Cruiser. Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hey those land cruisers are stupid reliable! I'm a yota tech and hate when they come in for service. Never a damned thing wrong with them!! 1 Quote Link to comment

wayno Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hey, I drove my 1971 Datsun 521 fully loaded from Washington State to the middle of Florida and back, it never missed a beat, they are very reliable. The only issue on that trip was when I finally got back, that piece of shit dogleg transmission was howling in 5th pretty bad, had to take it out that year and put in another one, I am so happy to be done with putting them transmissions in my work truck. :) 2 Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 RTB, you've got a rare piece of Toyota history there! Those I6 Landcruisers are very hard to find nowadays. Quote Link to comment
danfiveten Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 I remember the looks when i told people id drove blue from wa to la lol. And it was a fun drive even if my ass was so tired from the stock seats >.> Quote Link to comment
RTB Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 The 80 series? I cant imagine one no longer working. Hell, it was designed to run off the shittiest gas in the world. I dream of getting a 1HDT swap from Canada someday. Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 What I mean is, that if someone owns one... They don't get rid of it. Certain 'special' people own them. Just like Datsuns... You don't just happen to buy one just because, Quote Link to comment
RTB Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Ah its very true. I got the last year where it was still really expedition minded. Once they v8 era began they became more soccer mommy. I got the 40th year anniversary edition. Front and rear elockers. I just love it. Quote Link to comment
TENDRIL Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 i think i'm shooting for bringing my truck but if not the goon has made it the last two years and will drive that again maybe with my 32/36 this time not the dual's Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 I love me some 40th anniversary Landcrusher :) Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Man, I can honestly say I (almost) regret swapping in a KA to my A10. I miss driving it to be honest...... I just want to drive the fucker to be honest! Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Dillons car is bad ass and has some of the best patina of any RIP Ruby Patina or testarosa .. it's a look, a style. Like rising sun hood or yellow headlights. Not for everyone....... but I didn't hear of Dillon stuffing the ballot box. 2 Quote Link to comment

RTB Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Considering a whole garageful of parts are coming with me to Canby and it's almost a 1,800 mile trip one way I think it only makes sense for me to do it from the comfort of a car I know will get me through a zombie apocalypse.
