Hey Everybody! I just ran across this forum and was seeking more info on either buying an LJ20 or (gulp) trying to decently restore a really decrepit one that is (hanging my head in shame) rotting away behind my dad's pole barn. This is the car that my dad first tried to teach me to drive in when I was in the sixth or seventh grade. I'm older now (I've got sixth or seventh graders of my own) and so is that car - like possibly past the brink with rust and rot. Don't know if it could be saved or not. Driving and riding in the brute, though, was certainly one of my more interesting memory sets from growing up in Minnesota. There was one Sunday, it must have been in the late '70s, when the snow was deep enough that the pastor wouldn't have made it to church had we not picked him up on the way in the LJ.
