wct49 here on mud has a box that I know he will part with. PM him if anyone is interested. He did a Saginaw conversion so he has some other parts as well. You'll just have to ask.
Later,

Painter Needed
Hey guys...can anyone recommend a good painter that will paint parts individually if I bring it to them (considering hood, fenders, etc.)? I am still doing all of my due diligence in this rig.
Thanks,
Eric

I just got the inside scoop on this a few weeks ago. Can't remember the guy's name right off hand but I'll see his wife this week and will get that to you. I think there are a few others that the guys in the club know as well that may chime in sooner.

I have a friend that does it for me. I can ask him for you and maybe pick them up and take them for you when I take mine. How soon you looking to do it?

Joe Malbrough found the BSLCA website today and asked that I refresh this post. His 78 is still 4-Sale and now asking 8K. Joe has visited here and reminded me exactly what post # it was. Joe if you care to comment feel free to do so. This rig under went a complete frame off back 98 - 99 has 350 advanced adapter/4spd tranny/3spd case only thing I wish we would have done different was to source fenders/aprons/bib and hood instead of going with the all in one fiberglass frontend from Spectre but back then we didn't have access to internet and everything we have now. At least I didn't. Built two rigs by faxing in orders to Spectre and Manafre catalogs. This was actually a parts rig I had bought and a friend talked me into selling it and building for him. Joe bought it from him.
Joe's email.
If any members are interested I'll take any reasonable offer. You probably know more about it than I do, haven't changed much but added PS, new carburetor with MSD ignition and electric radiator fan. Just don't have time for it anymore and would like it to go to someone who actually knows what type of vehicle it is.
I can be reached at malbrew@gmail.com or this email address if anyone wants more information or pictures.
Thanks,
Joe Malbrough

This truck is now at a dealer on the corner of Louisiana Avenue and the Thruway. Looks really good but as Landry has seen first hand, there are some serious issues hidden away.

Joe just emailed me and said he drop the price to 6K   If somone doesn't snap this rig up its just foolish. You could source some used metal parts for the frontend and paint them and would have a really nice rig. Its a damn good deal I know the history of this rig and you could reliably drive it daily. Al did for a few years. Its also got the 4spd tranny to the early 3spd tranfer case I built out of my 70 which makes a good combo for the trails. I've wanted to do this to my 78 when I get time.

There is a 1995 locked 80 for sale in the classifieds here on mud for $2000. Sounds like a beater. For only $2000 you could beat it up some more and never feel bad about it.

I talked to Joe today about his yellow FJ40 for sale up there. I'm sending him a deposit as soon as I get his paypal info. As soon as I get home in a couple of weeks I'll go pick it up. So add another 40 to the club!

Thanks! yes I really miss her alot, even with the split bench seat that was just a tad too narrow for my butt. This one has just about every mod i wanted to do to my old one. I've always wanted a 350.

Fantastic Brian I'm glad its staying here in LA and in the club. Its a great rig. I didn't hear back from Joe so I was wondering what was going on. Deryl was wondering as well and said if you didn't get it he wanted it. I'm glad someone jumped on it  for that price I was trying to figure a way to get it myself.

well I had emailed the gmail account in the post but he hadn't checked it. I got a message on my cell phone from him and we worked it out. Luckily I have cell service at this rig, normally I don't.
I'm really excited about it. I think seeing all ya'lls 40s at the meetings and Alabama made me feel kinda like running into an old girlfriend that I hadn't completely forgotten about.

Congratulations Brian.....and I'm glad that it's going to someone who I know will take it to events and trail rides....anyone who wheels a brand new FJ cruiser (really wheels it), definitely deserves a rig like that....
