Why joined Hoosier Cruiser: |
| I joined up with these guys about 4 years ago. I was happy to find other people here in indiana that had cruisers and were willing to wheel. The club consists of a lot of great guys that are willing to help out in many different ways. I have made many friends during my years in the club |

Description/Features of Rig: |
I have 3 cruisers right now. 1985 FJ60. I bought this truck in 1992, she was bone stock. The short list of mods include: 4" shackle reversal lift, 4.10 gears, lock-rights front and rear, 35" bigfoots, weber carb, spector header and HEI distributor.
I also have a 78 FJ40 that is in the middle of a frame off restoration. The stock motor was bored and decked, clifford cam, spector header, dui distributor and fuel injected. It is just a cowl sitting on the body, but I have plans for a aluminum tub, this is going to be a street/light trail truck. I am "building it for the wife"
Lastly, I have a 1997 FZJ80. It mostly sees family truckster duty. It has the e-lockers and a 2" OME suspension. It is a very capable truck. It would easily follow the FJ60 if I wanted a bunch of body damage (I dont, for some reason it kills the resale value). I would say that this is the best cruiser toyota put out, very trail worthy and still able to run 85mph with the AC on. |

Hobbies/Interests: |
| Like most of the guys I like outdoor stuff. Hunting, shooting, fishing, camping, wheeling. I also am into martial arts and trying to keep my kids from hurting themselves. Mostly, I just try to keep my kids from hurting themselves. |
