Good morning and happy Monday. I am hoping I might be able to get some suggestions/help. I have a 1966 FJ40 that my wife's Grandfather bought brand new in 1967. He gave it to my father-in-law in the 1990's and it sat for well over 30 years unmoving. My father-in-law gave it to me and my wife in...

That would be great!

I had a busy week with with 66 FJ40. I pulled the engine, transmission, and transfer case. Everything I read on here said it would be fairly easy. It was not. But, it is done. With some help, I got everything separated and the original F engine is with Baker's automotive machine shop. It will...

I missed the info on the thread about February's meeting. I am writing here so I make sure I see something on for next Months meeting. Looking forward to meeting you all.

So, the vehicle doesn't have corrugated sides. It has been in my wife's family since 1967 and as far as I know, everything is stock, minus a heater that was added and her Grandfather put sliding windows in on the side.

Thanks everyone. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone and looking forward to this project. The vehicle was brought new by my Wife’s grandfather, who gave it to my wife’s Dad, who is giving it to us. It has sat outside in the elements from thirty years but looks decent enough. I hope...

86R100RS, Thank you very much for the offer. I might take you up on that once I get it so it can be rolled, pushed, or pulled, I will reach out to you. That is a huge ask though so I really do appreciate the offer. It has been sitting on the same tires for at least 30 years, if not longer, so I...

Hi Everyone. I am new to this board and new to Land Cruisers in general. I have always wanted one and my Father-in-Law is giving my wife and I his 1967 FJ40. It has been sitting for more than 30 years up in the Prescott area and is in desperate need of work. I have always wanted to take on a...
