Hi all

[sydtrolls]

Hi all, hope this is the right place to say hello. Just bought my first fj40 Wed. Probably be spending the next few weeks going through the faq's. Looks like you guys have all the info!!!


By the way does anyone know if any companies make physical catalogs for fj's??


Here is my baby. Hope to get up to par soon.

That, sir, is a thing of beauty! You are my hero!



Welcome!

Holy-guacamole Batman! Here's to ya!
(Oh yeah, welcome too)

Wow! Gotta love your...enthusiasm?....Optimism? Oh heck, best of luck and my regards to the wife and checkbook.

 

[fj40forlife]

wow. whats your plans for it

 

[Splash]

You certainly have vision. Can't wait to watch the build.

 

[mtj555]

Welcome , LOoks like you have some work cut out for you. What are you plans? Good luck

 

[Chip B]

dang...that still looks better than mine. I like the color too

 

[lostmarbles]

Goes to show what a twisted lot we are. We can see treasure where your ordinary Joe Bloggs just sees junk!

When I study your vehicle, it looks surprisingly good. The kick vent and louvre I can see are actually in better shape than mine for instance. And I can't see much in the way of serious rust. And the panel damage that I see is easy to repair.

Welcome.

I'll be only too happy to offer you helpful advice (whereever I can) as you turn it into "your vision".

Cheers

 

[FJFOOL]

The bezel is on correctly, so you are good to go, dude !! Enjoy the build, it IS nice to know there are still people with vision out there.

 

[FJROME]

Your inthusiasm is inspiring; Welcome!

WOW!

GIVE HER LIFE! Bring her back from the dead. I still see a small heart beat......you can do it! It will take some time and a lot of $$$ but most of all give her all your love and she will respond with great rides and family memories that will never be forgotten. At least that is what I said when I brought home my money pit. Best of luck and keep us posted. Welcome to the madness!

 

[graygoose67]

hell yeah. best of luck and before i forget, what year is it?

 

[MarcoPolo]

How Sweet It Is..!!

 

[rapovt]

Another Cruiser Saved!!

 

[aksnowryder]

Looks to be in better shape then mine was when I brought her home. Stay after it. Never give up, never surrender!!!

 

[Texx]

Spector off road www.sor.com probably has the premium printed catalog. Manafre and a couple others still do print catalogs I believe. If you order the sor one, be sure and get the price sheet, it's separate. Good luck on your truck!

 

[sydtrolls]

Awesome, thanks for all the support!!! Much to say I have gotten a ton of ridicule on her, but hopefully can bring some of her original luster back. Actually I'm just hoping to make it drivable. First thing is to try and turn the motor over. I'm going to put a mix of kerosene and oil in the cylinders and let it sit for a couple of weeks, then try to bump the starter to see if it will turn over. Oh and special thanks to Texx for the info and lostmarbles, I know I'm going to have a ton of questions

 

[Herb]

I love it! Good luck and have fun!
