    My Almost Frame-Off Restoration – ‘77 FJ40 RHD

Getting closer to the paint stage at the moment. The biggest update is my decision to go with a full frame off...

    My Almost Frame-Off Restoration – ‘77 FJ40 RHD

    I bought it from an ebay broker in Georgia...he brought it back from NZ to USA in a shipping container with a bunch of Land Rovers...said he went down for the LRs and spotted mine and couldn't pass it up... At one point I got the phone number from the NZ mechanic who serviced it and he told me...

    My Almost Frame-Off Restoration – ‘77 FJ40 RHD

    You were close on the mileage, except you need to add a one in front of it - currently at 134,000 kms... Until I visit the body shop again, I'll have to take your word for it on the other details... Did you get all that info from the license plate? The one in the picture is the plate that came...

    My Almost Frame-Off Restoration – ‘77 FJ40 RHD

    It all started with a leaky radiator… Last October, the original radiator on my RHD ’77 FJ40 finally gave up the ghost. By the time I got it replaced, it was early November. Unfortunately, the troops from NHDOT had already been out spreading copious amounts of salt on our roads after early...

    Wanted  1977 FJ40 RHD Windshield Frame

    Need a windshield frame in better condition than mine. I've removed most of the rust and scale from mine and realized I should look for a 'new' one...1977 FJ40 RHD (close to NH?).

    New Member from New Hampshire...

    I recognize Tim Wilson's green ('78?)...and maybe one other (Ted Browns fully restored powder blue?)... Not sure if one of the white ones in front is mine...if I could read the plate, it would have said CRUZAH. Those sure were fun times...I haven't seen that many cruisers in one spot...

    Stock colors for accessories??

    Excellent information - much appreciated! I'm pretty certain the bumper is original, so I'm going to leave that alone for now. Going to change he bezel to white tho, as the current color doesn't seem right at all. Mike, I'll be I touch for some rattle cans once we get a little further along...

    Stock colors for accessories??

    I'm having the exterior of my 77 RHD FJ40 painted this winter so it has the stock yellow (532). While I'm at it, I want to make sure the hood latches, windshield latches, mirror arms/mounts are also painted the correct color. Maybe this has been covered in the forums already, but my search found...
