Nice dry central valley california 1969 fj40. I bought this a while back to start a nice capri blue patina build. This 40 was left at a body shop as an abandoned project. Over the years parts went missing and it was left outside. Parts of the original paint were sanded down in preparation for a new paint job. Luckily they didnt get far and 75% of the og paint remained. I have spent months piecing it back together and trying to use original capri parts. The parts not original to the truck is the windshield frame, hood, bib, drivers door and the pass barn door. I have rattle canned those parts to get as close to the og paint. This truck is 98% rust free!!! Super solid frame and tub. The only spots that need work is the left corner sil( been cut out) and small rust at the right lower barn door hinge. And the hood needs some rust repair( not original to the 40) Its also very straight with no dents. The drivetrain is complete but the engine is seized from water going down the carb!) It will come with a clean f engine ready to bolt in. Original uncut tunnel and column shift intact and shifts smoothly. Complete Ramsey pto winch( spins free)( cable operated( fozen cable). About 97% complete. Was about to swap the engine, but a bad back and too many other projects so its time to let it go. This is a very solid project but it will take more than a weekend of work, it needs a complete brake system overhaul, clutch hydraulics, electrical work, final assembly etc. I can help load onto trailer, but keep in mind, no brakes and it doesnt run. This has been out of the California dmv for many years, so it is sold with a bill of sale. The frame and vin numbers match so should be easy to register with a vin verification. $7500 obo
