a Rover to brighten Bostonian's day...
OK, Bostonian, I always think of you when I drive by and see this thing. It has been sitting behind the local Chevy/Toyota dealership for who knows how long, I first spotted it about a year or so ago. Probably doesn't even run, but it sure looks like fun! Beaut of a paint job, eh? (Hope this made your day a little brighter, sorry about your "other forum" experience. Those guys just don't know our FJ's.)

Re: a Rover to brighten Bostonian's day...
I'm no Bostonian, but that is the coolest Rover (the top one) I've seen. Paint and all! What's the big hole in the back bumper for? PTO? Considering that it has blocks behind the wheels on flat ground, I would assume there are some 'little' issues with it.

Re: a Rover to brighten Bostonian's day...
Man I do like those rovers. I always wanted a defender. The closest I have gotten is a FJ Cruiser, and I'll have to be happy with that.. No regrets...
