Bill Stephens from Wyoming.
Single owner of a 1978 FJ40 I bought in Cheyenne, WY.

Totaled it out in 1991 when I hit a 1991 F350 dully and totaled it out also.

Would not let it go and drug it to PA and back to Wyoming.

Started working on it and am repowering it with a R2.8 H55F and split transfer case with 3:1 low range.

FJ60 rear axle with a full float disc brake conversion, Big brake kit on the front and high steer.

Just install the FJ105 power steering box.

I am active on I8MUD:
Hello and welcome to the OB family.

I have only made to Frankfurt, Germany and spent the night returning from a work trip in India. A snow storm caused delays on my trip home.

Last year I was in Switzerland for training.

I have worked 2 nuke sites and one fossil site in Spain.

Been to 3 fossil sites in the UK.

Awesome. If you're ever in Europe again, get in touch, maybe we can meet up then.
