Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
I took these earlier today...I felt badly because I made my friends wait around until I was done. Oh well, I think it was worth it. ;)

Anyway, onto the pictures...I only edited them a bit. :sexywink:










Tell me what you think...All feedback is appreciated. I am really trying to gain some direction as to where I should start focusing on in respect to what needs improvement.

THANKS FOR LOOKING! :mrgreen:
 
Very cool idea, and nice shots. I really like the 3rd and 4th.
 
Thanks guys... :mrgreen:

I dig your FJ40. What year?

Mine's a 69--got the ambulance doors for tailgate and regular lift gate up top.

Nice, it's a 75...I have the hard top sitting at home. As of today, it's got 154k original miles. Not bad for a car from the mid 70's. It's the 4 speed manual (Only way to go :thumbup: ) and it's a pre-cat 75...kinda rare from what I have read.

(Offtopic- Hey moutainlander, do you know of any FJ40 forums online? I have been searching around and have come up empty handed.)

Anyway, thanks for the looks and comments...

Looks pretty clean and straight. Mine is a little more modified than that. The body is all straight and clean, but it's got a TPI 350/700r4 combo swapped in at the moment.

For cruiser talk I go to a couple different places.

PoR is good for tech stuff, but they are more into hard core wheeling over there, but there are a few purists in the LandCruiser Talk forum there. http://www.pirate4x4.com

Ih8mud is another good group of guys. There is a good mix there, with many more resto guys, pretty good mix anyway. http://www.Ih8mud.com

There's forum links on both of those pages.

And finally, here's a good all around resource: http://www.tlca.org/

I'd tell you about Lone Star LandCruisers, but I'm not sure you'd appreciate it, not being from Texas.

Thanks for the info...I just finished up my registration on P-4x4. Seems pretty active.

Thanks again for the comments, guys...err, and girls.

Though the jeep is a little backlit, I like the 3rd image the best. The colors are soft and muted, and I really like the sparkle of light on the grass in the foreground. Very nice.

BLASPHEMY!







:lol: (I'm just kidding...All of my friends call it a Jeep...it doesn't really bother me.)
 
:lol: Why not call it a jeep if it looks like one? It's a bouncy thing with removable doors.....that's a jeep.


:runs before they make the font size large enough to implode the forum:

LOL...funny how the TLC fanatics freak out over this one.

I don't have to worry about it though - I drive and FJ60. ;)

(another vote for www.ih8mud.com - probably the most complete TLC site.)

J/K - i know how it is, i actually drive a 01 Jeep Wrangler, and I had a lady compliment it one day - "nice car, is that a suzuki?"............. :er:
