    I Just Bought A FJ45

    http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Toyota-Landcruiser-1969/SSE-AD-2778780/?Cr=9&sdmvc=1 Thanks ozcruiser. Harleys are a soft market right now in the US and I could only get about half of what I spent on it right now, so the trade did make sense at the time. You are in the part of the...

    I Just Bought A FJ45

    Before I was so rudely interrupted, I had checked the engine number and the F155 appears to have come from a 1973 Toyota according to Specter's site.

    Guess you are right esh. I should just ignore them, which is what I usually do unless they are particularly offensive.

    I Just Bought A FJ45

    Stump, that was the intent of this thread whether I sell it or not. Trolls just get my goat sometimes and I didn't think this site would have any, but I guess I was wrong. I was hoping that members would give me their honest opinions on how to go about bringing this 45 back to a reasonable...

    Monitors, please take this thread off your site. It seems some of the members don't know how to play nice with others.

    FJ40 , FJ45 to the US

    I purchased a Mercedes while I was working in Saudi Arabia and had it shipped to New Orleans. Much less than shipping it to California, where I am from. I had to go thru the DOT and EPA and wonder what the regulations are now for importing foreign vehicles. It used to be one in a lifetime, but...

    Fj40 vs fj45

    I have to agree with what you said Whitey. I am not one of those who can shell out $75K either, but do enjoy an original classic more than a resto mod. I have owned both and every time the original vehicle wins hands down. Must be the nestalgia in us.

    I Just Bought A FJ45

    Here is the truck I bought in an earlier life. I found this on the MUD site and another member placed it in one of the threads. It is nice to see what it looked like before I first saw it. I think the guy I got it from painted it an army green to hide the camo paint job.

    I Just Bought A FJ45

    There is no VIN plate on this vehicle, only the stamped number on the right side of the frame. There is a plate on the engine which is the one I have not looked at yet. I will take a look tomorrow and report what I find out. I have also not looked at the tub condition under the diamond plate. I...

    Fj40 vs fj45

    A lot of what you say makes sense, but when dealing with cars, rare is better than not rare. There are a lot of 40s out there to pick from and most who are looking for one can find them easily. There are not a lot of 45s out there and many have looked years to find the one they want. The old...

    I Just Bought A FJ45

    Thanks. Even though it is not the stock color, it does give it more of a vintage look and I think it should make the truck appear a little more era correct. I do like the FJs that are painted the stock solar red color as well.

    I Just Bought A FJ45

    ^ Thanks. It has a F155 and I haven't had a chance to get the serial number off it yet to determine year. It would be great to have a diesel, but it is just the luck of the draw, I guess. Once I do more cleaning up on the truck, I will post more pics. Still waiting for the brake line to see how...

    I Just Bought A FJ45

    ^ Thanks. At first, I had some remorse, but now that I have researched things a little more, I feel much better about the trade. Once the truck is cleaned up and on the road, its value can only increase. I am thinking about going to the Petaluma Swap Meet in July to show the truck and possibly...

    I Just Bought A FJ45

    ^ I traded my customized 2002 Heritage soft tail. I used to build and customize bikes in Phoenix until the economy tanked. The bike was advertised a few times, but the market is still soft. It made sense to me to trade for the FJ45 and the more I read, the more I think it was a good move. Here...

    I can make LPB box sides

    How much for a tailgate? Mine in OK, but does have some cancer on the bottom, outside rib. I will take a closer look, so if the price is right, I would be interested. Sorry to hear you have stopped production, you will be missed. Thanks
