Come and buy it. I can pick it up for you, if you want, and keep it at my place until you can make the trip or until I can make to your place.

I just hate to think of Darrell mving vehicles around with a lawn mower and a home made fork lift. I know the next time I see this, there is going to be a big dent on the rocker panels.

 My birthday is coming up  I do have a few parts for this early 55 I've collected over the years.
I guess I don't understand why this isn't gone already. I see this as a diamond in the ruff. Keep me undated if she drops the price anymore I might not be able to help myself.
Mot I don't think my wife would let me WILL my old cruisers away after all the money I've spent over the years. But you never know While I do have many different models sitting parked all of them Land Cruiser. Which means she will only have to deal with guys off of one web site  I'm just trying to keep it simple for her. I know I really a nice guy

yes, a diamond in the rough it is, but i still think it's high for a rig that's been sitting. if it was streetable right now, than i think it would be worth it.

Ok... I looked at the photo's again.... if the body is as solid as it looks. Then 1500 wouldnt be to bad. You always have something that needs to be done on an old pig... and if body work isnt one of them, thats a good thing... sorry I should have looked closer.

Any idea on shipping $$$$$
Any idea on an estimate for shipping to the east coast? Can't find a PIG on the east coast without serious rust. Sounds like it could be streetable with little work. Might be worth shipping since I could save on the bodywork expense if I bought a rust bucket local. How bad is the roof?

Shipping seems to run about $850-$1200 to ship across the country...

I can take a closer look at the gutters on the roof when I see the rig again.
The picture of the roof kinda shows the dents in the roof where someone put something on it. I think it would be easy to pop out but I cannot remember if the FJ 55 has a double wall roof.

Nice
Looks like a very nice pig. Very original and rust free. It's a shame they want to much money. Looks like it needs some work. For a little more $$$ the one in Seattle is a better deal. I wish we had more of a selection out here on the east coast.

It is a double edge sword.
The more they get for that, the more our Pigs our worth...
We can't watch every Pig out there sell for $500 and then expect our own to be worth $5000 when we go to sell...
