More progress getting the front end back together. I hate that all of his work will essentially go unseen, but its worth doing it right. We should have the front end finished in the next couple of weeks then will start working on the dash and interior--after that is getting the doors off for...

He painted it and I originally thought it was an old man thing where he could find it easily, but now I am thanking him and painted our fj40 dipstick red yesterday! It's a funny thing to look back and think about working on our frame off FJ40 in 2002 when I was a teenager that thought he "knew...

I am finally getting back into the garage with my pops with the warmer weather coming through and although we didnt get much done over the winter, we made some progress over the last couple of weeks on the front end. We ended up having to take the front end to a body repair shop in Raleigh and...

4500 obo

I went over and looked at it back in December and they were replacing the amp under the seat so I couldn't drive it. I asked about the "vehicle submerged" and the salesman told me it was because the previous owner ran it into a ditch with standing water during a storm but nothing got in the...

Forgot I had this sitting under my deck for a couple years--spare from my fj60 with a wrangler 33x12.5x15 with not much tread and just minor surface rust on the factory rim. Tire still holds air. Free to anyone who wants to pick it up in Raleigh.

Dropping price to $5000 OBO

Selling for my wife's coworker--not mine. Feel free to reach out and I will get you in touch. Per the owner: As far as the history of the car, my wife bought it in 2005 from one of her dad’s customers who is the only owner before us. So we’ve had it for 20 years. I don’t have any of the service...

No affiliation but I found a couple of decent 200 hundred series on CL and FB. Low mileage 2008 in gold pearl which is kind of growing on me. Also a higher mileage one owner white/terra 2016 in Asheville. I also might have a lead on a black 2 owner 2000 land cruiser that is mechanically sound...

I am looking for a 200 for the wife as well and had a buddy of mine look at this one down in Charleston that I passed on. Family owned car with kids so not the cleanest interior and has a crack in the bumper. I have additional photos and his contact number if you're interested--he let me know he...

I found the front and rear vinyl and cargo mat in the attic and will most likely reuse the original cargo mat (sorry @WarDamnEagle), but not the front and rear vinyl if the carpet kit works out. The original front vinyl mat is in pretty rough shape but the rear could be cleaned up and reused...

Spent the day yesterday sandblasting the front end and trying to figure out what to do with what looks to be a bend caused by a fender bender at one point. You can see it is off about an inch on the bottom crossmember on the front drivers side. I think we should be able to make a cut underneath...

Shipping was not horrible--I think about $160 for shipping to NC and the carpet kit came out to about $230

Well it looks like you'll all be able to see how it works out because my dad had already ordered it the day I sent it to him. He's not on Mud much so when I brought up the idea of a group order yesterday, he said he had ordered it and we will just be the guinea pig for this kit and I will do a...
