craigslist SoCal: 1970 Freeborn Red Patina 40 - 16.5k OBO - FST truck (1 Viewer)

Year

1970

Vehicle Model

1. 40 Series

Not mine.

Looks like a really nice little 40 if you want a do-all truck that has some pretty great patina. I'm sure there are a bunch of small details that need to be cleaned up/worked out, but it looks like it hasn't been totally ruined by PO's & rust like most trucks we see.

Bezel police have been notified. I’d buy that truck though.

Never understood the need for the masses on this site to point out bezel orientation. Feels like a childish game people who own jeeps would play.

If I could only have 1 40, this one would be a good candidate. It could be a really nice truck with some sweat equity on the patina preservation and enhancement and tasteful upgrades. You could have a REALLY nice 40 for around $20k.

Well that’s your opinion and your are entitled to it.

This is a solid cruiser for the money imo.

I saw and drive this 40. It flies on acceleration. It’s in excellent shape. What you didn’t notice or didn’t comment on was the location of the floor shifter. It has a Borg Warner Super T10 transmission matted to a 3 speed transfer. It a corvette muscle car drive train. It’s a high revving engine, so the cam should be changed for more torque and the transmission for off-road. Now that you know what I know, what’s a fair price for this patina FJ40?
