Quote from listing:
"Selling my FJ55 project. It is a Jan. 1970 build date, and pretty good rust wise compared to most I've seen. Lots of good parts installed or ready to be installed. Stock radiator included.
List of what it has so far:
1988 L05 4bolt GM truck motor mounted up. It was a nearly free junkyard core that I threw gaskets, pistons, rings and bearings into. I have very little $$ in it. I haven't started it. Has Weiand Aluminum intake, random Q-jet, new HEI, front accessories.
1970 GM TH350, bone stock. Has aux. cooler and B&M shifter to go with.
Stock transfer with Advanced Adapters kit to double it to a NP203.
Front axle is the stock 1970 housing, inners and third. However, it has been upgraded with 1985 Toyota pickup birfs, outers, wheel bearing hubs, FJ80 drive flanges, 1987 Toyota IFS calipers, and brand new FJ60 rotors. New trail gear wheel bearings, trunnions, and seal kit.
Stock Rear Axle, new brakes, replaced diff centerpin retaining bolt.
Front suspension consists of 1985 Toyota Pickup 4" lift rear springs, Mounted SUA and with a shackle reverse. Trail gear shackle tubes used in the frame.
Has 37X12.50x16.5 BFG's on aluminum slot mags
Rear suspension is longer shackles and add-a-leafs
Have a set of four NIB Monroe shocks that'll fit after new mounts are built.
Body is in pretty good shape, driver's front fender needs work and driver's floor and body mount need replaced. Dent in rear by tailgate, needs a paintjob. Missing grille, and turn signals. Stock seats, new shoulder belts installed in front and have another new set for the rear.
Has rear tailgate glass, but no motor. Somewhere I started to modify it into a lift hatch, but didn't finish. All door glass is in excellent shape, driver window regulator even works and I have a good working spare for it too. Needs some door weather stripping, two doors have been done.
Custom offroad front and rear bumpers
No steering installed, but have 1985 Toyota Pickup steering arms on the axle and an FJ62 steering box. Was going to mimic stock style steering with FJ80 parts. Needs conversion hose from GM pump to FJ60 box, available from JTO (and other places)
The original wiring was stripped, and started to rewire with a whole new fuse block and harness from scratch. Needs finished. Working heater blower and rear heat too.
Brakes: 84 Toyota pickup booster, GM master with adapter fittings.
Needs exhaust. Don't have engine headers yet. Have a bunch of brand new Dynomax/Magna flow 3" exhaust stuff and a nice muffler.
Interior was missing most of the original dash and accessories. Started homemade gauge panel, needs finished. Has United Pacific turn signal switch.
Lots of other parts that I can't exactly remember are going to be included (plugs, wires, starter, random new stuff). I will fill the back with every part I bought for it that I can find in my garage"
