This fj45 is by no means perfect or in "showroom" condition but it 's my daily summer driver at the lake and runs very well. The time and parts invested is far more than I 'm asking but of course it will take a certain type who likes this type of vehicle. The truck could be taken as is a used as a daily driver or money could be put in to bring it back to perfect. As it stand the price is fair. I'm not desperate to sell it but have a few other projects on the go. I understand there has been some issues with owl ridge but as I said when I got the vehicle I invested a significant amt of money to bring the truck to what I wanted. I did not buy it from Owl Ridge directly but want to give any that are interested full disclosure.
Thanks
Original frame off restoration by Owl Ridge 2010. I purchased in Toronto in 2011 and brought truck to what I wanted in terms of completion with the help of several mechanics in the Ottawa area. I drive it all summer at the lake and it is a good runner. Time to move on as I have to many other toys to work with at this point. Could be maintained and driven as is or someone could take the time to bring it back to showroom condition. Had one of the forum members Ambrew over to have a look today so he might be able to give his opinion on the rig if one were to ask. Guys at 4Wheel have lots of my money so they can attest to the amount I've spent on Parts...Just tell them Jordan from Ottawa is selling his 1963 fj45...he will know me. Good bones to work with here. Ambrew got me thinking that my original price was a bit unrealistic so I will be offering the truck for sale for 20,000. I have put more in but I am being realistic with the sale. Build of this truck documented originally on ih8mud forum by Jordan at owl ridge and by the gentleman that purchased the truck in Toronto. Much work was done from that part forward to get it completely road worthy.
