Supposedly a “dealer“ from Greenwich Connecticut was coming today to buy it and bring it up north. Some rich guy who knows nothing will buy it to take to tennis on Sundays.

Well, just got back from looking at it. The truck was about 100 pounds heavier because of the Bondo, paint, bubbling, cracking, and runs all over it. Rear main seal transfer case and oil pan all leaking.

All very good points, here’s the link to the listing only 5 min from my house https://www.hemmings.com/auction/1983-toyota-fj40-hampton-bays-ny-579269

Did you have to cut holes in the firewall to run coolant lines through or were they pre-existing?

Since it’s a Columbia spec dashboard, I’m not going to have the correct piping for windshield defrost, correct?

As a title states, I need some help. I’m hoping to get into my first 40 series tomorrow that was imported from Columbia and restored. The only thing holding me back is it does not have heat from the factory. How difficult is it to install a vintage air heat system or something similar? Thanks...
