I personally would not have used bat, never liked the format. I think it’s a 75k truck all day, but the market is coming down with every collectible and it might be more realistic and really puts things into perspective. The 20k lv’s that need everything are not selling anymore. I hate to say it...
I don’t know of a better factory correct lpb resto, and I’ve been around these for 25 years. With that license plate, maybe it should come back to California! Would love to drive this just to feel what it was like to leave the dealer parking lot!
JP, this is the best 45 lpb resto I have ever seen, and the most correct and accurate. This truck should be used for others to reference from. Very nice!
Off the hook..... waiting for the vacuum sealed temp controled garage to house this fine 45 specimen . Seriously, JP, what are you going to do with it? Besides sell it for 150k!!! Really nice attention to detail, you are sticking to mr T’s book ,and I’m watching!!! Love this build...
My factory 45 pto runs the ex pipe above the skid plate, it would hang way low under? Glad pops is doing well, lost my dad at 4 years old, very fulfilling to be a dad now, and teaching my 10 year old the world of TEQ!!!
Btw JP, an f engine will run all day on those numbers, I have had 85psi across the board purr like a kitten! These are low compression engines designed to run on just about anything flammable! Also get her running up to op temp and retest!
Jp, look foward to your 100% correct restoration, if anyone can do it, I’m sure you can. I have been chasing a 1 owner 45 for 20 years with the intent on doing a total factory correct off the showroom floor fj45 lpb. No mods, totally correct from the factory! Don’t think I have ever seen one...
