I’ve had this FJ40 for about 12 years as a project in waiting. I think if I post the VIN here and keep doing little part restorations on it here and there I can will it back into existence. Proud to be a long time enthusiast and member of TLCA.
1978 FJ40, VIN: 294261.

Count me in. I’ve been around TLCA a long time (#2857) but my involvement has waxed and waned over the years like most. I drive a 5th Gen 4Runner now, and have two LC projects awaiting time and space to work on them. Im happy to mildly wheel the 4Runner but probably won’t do anything too crazy...
I’m replacing broken parts in my 2018 TRD PRO that I’m rebuilding from salvage. Not much left to replace, really, as most of the hard work is done. I could however use an intact headliner to pass GA inspection for my rebuilt title certification. Anyone have a leg up on a rear end smashed TRD...
Done!
My PM box is full since I'm not on here very often. I'll try to have my inbox cleaned up by the weekend so you can send me your info - or just post it here and I'll drop a check in the mail to you (if that's allowed)
Thanks very much for posting these items. Having that clip is going to...

Steel vs Aluminum? Meh. It's all about personal preference. Try some out to see what feels best for you. Me personally, I wouldn't part with any of my Cannondales. Well, that is unless someone has a sweet restored FJ45 they'd like to trade for one.
Mine is a 2005 (ish)...
It took me forever to find mine, and just by chance off a parts pig that was featured in Craigslist.
I hope you find a pair - they are more rare than hen's teeth. PM'd you.
Certainly not a frame-off as claimed. I wouldn't eat off that frame. That said, it's a great candidate for a frame-off. Offer 3,500 and walk away (fast).
Dropped off our queen size bed from the future nursery at the mother-in-law's over Easter weekend so that we will have room to start on the painting and woodwork. Unexpectedly, I got invited to swing by Stevie's, who sold me the Pig and the FJ40. He was finally able to sort out some property he...
Favor:
If you request the number, please make sure your PM inbox is clear to accept messages, and don't get a temper when you think I'm shrugging you off after attempting to send info to your full inbox.
Thx

I picked up a vintage set of auto body hammers and dollies on eBay yesterday. I'm going to use these primarily to address the body damage the Pig experienced when the tree in my back yard fell on it last year. I've been watching YouTube videos to get a handle on the methods employed with these...
