it was for sale months ago and i emailed a number of times and he never got back to me so i bought my 62 , it was for $5000 back then , he finaly emailed me back about a week after i bought the 62 ,doh !
but hey i wonder how much lower the guy would go , it would have to have a rock solid frame or it wouldnt be worth squat ! __________________ 1984 red Bj60 sold 1984 brown Bj60 sold 1985 gray Bj 60 sold 1988 FJ 62 My current Ride Wanted Fj 40 project . |

Thats just a tad more then I paid for Elsie.Solid frame and that was about the only thing solid.I guess it all depends on where you want to end up?

My 40 has a rock solid frame. And a rock solid motor. And a rock solid drive line, with custom frame lubrication system.
Body...not so rock solid. __________________  Jeff Steiger - Coastal Cruisers - TLCA #8042'90 hdj81, '74 fj40, '82 fj45, '71 fj55 Pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/42257364@N00/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/43438944@N00/ |

Yotawheeler... looks like your trying to start a LC ranch.
What's up with some LC owners needing more than three in their yard, sheez! GG __________________ 1977 - FJ40-V8-SM420-ARB's,SOA (Ducky) 1987 - HJ60-OME,Turbo'd,4.56 (Silver) 1987 - HJ60-Work in progress (Clementine) 1985 - BJ60-3B-Belton lift (FunOne)- 2008 RIP |

well...technically i only own 1 1/2 cruisers myself...the others are my dads, i have a 40 and me and my dad went into a 45 project together. i would love to drive the 40 every day but its a FJ so $$$$ in the tank for the 100 k every day to and from school.
toynut: do you know this guy or something? my dad had sent him a few e-mails when it was 5k but then hadnt heard much back so we assumed it had sold. you know the best way to get ahold of him? __________________ in my driveway....

well toynut i think you're safe as far as getting into trouble is concerned, cause i just opened up a whole new can of worms for myself...went and looked at it and ill be adding to the cruiser "herd". gunna be picking it up on tuesday or wednesday
pbg: apperently he just drove it in the summer for the past few years (thats what he told me)....that could be why it looks like it hasnt moved for a few years __________________ in my driveway....

Oh! I see
that soft top looks like one Fab-tech used to sell . could you see out of the windows fairly well . did it fit tight ?

the windows on it were kinda crappy....the top needs to be replaced, zippers dont work very well and the you cant really see out of the windows very well. i have a buddy here on the island who can make me a new top in pretty short order if i were to ask. i also have a spare hard top in my yard so im not too worried about that....the fit seemed to be alright though.
