1966 FJ45LV Is it worth it. (1 Viewer)

I recently came across this. All original. Runs and drives. Do you think it has potential. Looks like a repair on the left rear quarter. Thoughts?

Now your just showin off...pretty sure every LV has potential and if you have to ask, well maybe you should tell us where it is

I clearly don’t know who I’m talking to.

 

[Indygbd]

No potential at all. Give me their number and I will yell at them for trying to rip you off!

 

[middlecalf]

Piles of potential.

Well I better sell mine because I am far from wealthy!

I would say, grab this thing. They are addicting!

One thing that always makes me wonder is the hood has an overhang and why ?

 

[xtremeVA]

That is a great find. It has alot of the original hard to find parts still in place. Hood is not original...not a split hood.

You will still need alot of patience, determination and $$ to bring it back to it's former glory.

Were the earlier hoods different dimensions than later hoods .

 

[whitey45]

Hoods are all the same, the front body mounts are toast or the frame is bent.

Piece of cake! Buy that beauty!

Are the wheels factory for the LV?

NO.

Wheels are the easiest “fix” on it, still available from Toyota new and easy to find used too.

My guess is that it's had a front-ender. Indicators are different, hood is different as well. Bib looks correct from here and correct me if I'm wrong but the grille is the 1972+ type? Looks tidy but you never know what's lurking..
