SOLD 1972 FJ40

Year

1972

Vehicle Model

1. 40 Series

Restored but not running. Was running great but one day it started cutting out, backfiring etc. I could get it running a few more times but same stuff. Now I can't get it started at all. I'm not a mechanic so I don't know what to do and the wife wants it out of the garage. Here is a quick list, message for more details. 3FE conversion with 4 speed transmission. The 3FE was rebuilt about 5K miles ago. Front discs, new softtop, new clutch all new badging, new wheels, new bumpers, new seats, lifted. Three doors to restore two also included. I'll get more pics if wanted. $16,000

Thanks for posting that for me. I would add that it didn't have a muffler on it yet at that point. The exhaust was coming straight out of the headers.

I found some Photos of the original truck before the build started and of the body work.

Someone will be getting a great deal on this....

I agree, tell us more about the 3FE conversion. Was it a advanced adapters kit?

 

[wasatch]

I'm not quite sure what that kit is. The H41 and transfer case bolts right up to the 3FE bell housing. My Mechanic in NM mounted the engine on the frame for me so I don't know much about that part. I purchased a conversion wiring harness from cruiserparts.net that connected in with the original harness and 3FE engine harness( with many phone calls and direction from cruiserparts ). Did that answer your question?

I've got pictures of the fuel pump and how I mounted it at home that I'll post tonight.

 

[wasatch]

Actually after thinking about this, my mechanic in NM originally mounted an H42 to the 3FE. I then pulled it to mount the H41. I think he used a 2f bell housing to make it work.

Nice rig. How tall is it to the top bow? How much garage height do you need to park it inside?

 

[wasatch]

I have a normal height garage and it goes in it just fine. I'll get a measurement when I get home tonight.

Someone wanted to see pictures of the bare steel during renovation. I only have one picture of that below. Also pictured is the disc brake and hub restoration and pictures of the hard doors and the old h42 and three speed transfer case that would be included in this sale if the buyer wanted them.

 

[oakweb]

any pictures of it with the hardtop on after it was all done?

It never had the hardtop as long as I have had it.

 

[oakweb]

ah ok, the picture had it with the hardtop before the build started, assumed you had it .. seems like the doors are there

The doors shown are not from the original vehicle. I purchased them separately.
