Probably working remotely now. COVID and all.
I'm still looking for a nice patina rig for restoration, this one is pretty close and for 15k I'd take a look for sure
he is not moving off $37K
Eventually he will lol
I looked at this truck in mammoth and passed on it at $8500. Just wasnāt a good time for me. He paid $6k apparently and just shined it up.

Build - Project FJThorty 1970 FJ40 Spring Green FST Cali Survivor Preservation
I havenāt had a build thread in many years but have been looking at getting an FJ40 recently and came across one on FB. It was only 1757 miles away in the southern California mountains so I took a chance and with the help of several in community convincing me it was very solid, clean and mostly...

You guys are meaner than the junkyard dawg!
Actually, I posted an Ad in Redondo Beach to try and find the original owner since that is where I was told it originally came from and the key tag that came with it was from a shop in Redondo Beach. I was looking for some early life pictures, info, etc. It kept getting flagged for not having something for sale.
I do have it listed in Indianapolis. It has come a very long way from when I got it. Iām not Leroy, donāt know what that is about. Appears the ad is gone also...
Either way the price is what it would take to buy it. Iām not finding another original rust free, SoCal cruiser in Spring Green for sale anywhere in the country... BAT will tell us all what itās worth when Iām finished putting all the original parts back together on it.

I also fitted up the original FST doors this weekend. It took a monumental amount of effort to find those. For those that looked at this in Mammoth, you know none of these parts, doors or bows, came with this rig. Finding original spring green FST hinges, practically unobtanium, like the Vader light and the eyelets for the door straps.

LOL, this took on a life of its own. Maybe the original owner was bad, bad Leroy Brown, and he was coming back for his old ride.Hereās the real link.
Facebook Marketplace is full of sooo many strange ads..... Iāve come across sooo many people trying to sell things, that donāt really seem to be interested in actually selling them.
Iād love to catch up with the original owner, this probably has a great story behind it. Iām told the original family took it up to Big Bear to use at their ranch/cabin. My goal all along was to put this back to as close to original and preserve the history of it with all of its character. So many of these either rust out or are ārestoredā questionably I would add. This has uncut rear fender lips, original steps with trim ring, all the metal is as solid as the day it rolled off the assembly line in July of 69, original Vader light. Everyone is amazed at its condition. Itās a time capsule and everyone in the local Indiana LC club thinks itās listed too low and they are the ones who have seen this running/driving in person.
