Nice....I love the stealthy aspects of it.

fishabductor - 1-29-2011 at 09:30 AM

Nice Rig!!!
I want one.... with a rig like this there'd be no more ccd shakedowns, vehicle/stereo theft, people trying to sell you things at stoplights and you could even drive/camp on the beach in restriected areas.

The only problem I can see is how in the hell would you ever find it in the parking lot? I can hardly find my visible truck some days.

I think I saw him and his buddy driving to Baja....

Do a search for photo posting instructions. Otherwise, DK will come to your rescue...if you want your vehicle to cease being invisible, that is... :cool:

I think your front left tire needs air and your tail light is out... safety firts..good luck...don't forget before a trip to Baja wax the paint, but in your case it will not be necesary....

PS. in your pix it looks like you are close to Papa Fernandez exit...

Bajacat,

You misspelled the word that follows "safety". Here is your error: You used an i instead of an a. :lol::lol:


That's OK. Just don't let it happen again. I do understand that you are trying to protect the environment. - The Emissions Police

An MC (or emcee) is the host of a staged event or similar performance. " M.C." is an abbreviation of " Master of Ceremonies".

Fez is for a nickname from the Navy = Fez = Fes = ******

I'm that guy that stands out in a crowd :-) McFez

Absolutely welcomed!

dizzyspots - 1-31-2011 at 08:50 AM

the trailer is a 98 USAVenturcraft Trailblazer (closed in 1999)...found the trailer on craigslist in Lubbock, TX...rehabbed it and matched the color and hubs to the FJ...it opens into a queen size bed, 4x6 dressing area and the understory is 25cu ft of storage, accessible in camp or on the road..torsion axles...
the little 12 foot Valco tinnie and 9.8 Merc did fine (Note: built a set of the "plug in" beach wheels WOW do they make it easy to launch, compared to the transom mount wheels!!!) ...just gotta get the motor angle set right...damn hard to get up on plane (if thats even possible with two adults and gear???)...and the trip from Puntal Final up to Gonzaga Bay is a lot further and slower than I thought
but we had a great time

[Edited on 1-31-2011 by dizzyspots]

David K - 1-31-2011 at 09:00 AM

Very cool using Toyota FJ wheels and All Terrain TAs for the trailer tires!


Now, what happened between Punta Final and 'Gonzaga Bay'...?

"...and the trip from Puntal Final up to Gonzaga Bay is a lot further and slower than I thought but we had a great time"

It is 10.5 miles from Punta Final to Rancho Grande/ Pemex... 2 more to Alfonsina's and 3.8 more to Papa Fernandez'.

dizzyspots - 1-31-2011 at 11:05 AM

in a slow tin boat....it IS a LOT further than it looks...we headed up to fish around the island and back bay.....turned back around between el sacrificio and campo beluga

I suppose your jigs are the same color as your car...

mcfez - 1-31-2011 at 07:44 PM

That road does get rough at the point you are talking about. It may be a few more miles to GB.....but boy....it's a whamo on the shocks!

How was the fishing out there anyhow?

dizzyspots - 2-1-2011 at 01:19 PM

we did ok..a yellowtail, 5-6lb triggers, parrotfish, spotted bass...typical stuff...the road was no worse than normal...although the sand track that runs diagonally from Punta Final to Rancho Grande was way faster

like i said the small tin boat trip from Punta Final to Beluga took FOREVER
