latches don't work, 4wd doesn't work, reat window doesn't work.

Yes but he is including the last set of OEM fenders for a 55. I'm thinking those sold for $1100. A friend of mine bought them and then abandonded his 55 project for 45 wagon project and then sold it too. I think this guy bought the fenders from him about 3 years agao. I saw this rig a few years back after he did the swap. It is actually pretty clean. What was strange was the conversion in an otherwise stock appearing 55.

if it is clean, that definitely helps (i can't tell since i'm viewing the pics on my phone). i still think $3700 is too high. $3k maybe. it does come with a lot of xtra parts though.
283 is actually a fairly easy swap and affordable to a lot of people. i know a couple of farmers kids that have done it since they already had the old chevy sitting out behind the barn ; )

Last price from Toyota on the front fenders was about $240/side IIRC. Its hard to tell the rust situation, but I agree with Ige, its a little high, $3k would be fair to both parties.

I know he paid $1100 for the pair. Maybe that included shipping? Worth every penny in my opinion for replacing ragged 55 fenders.

Our LC prices are generally very high in Idaho. That is the bad. The good is that they are generally pretty nice Cruisers. We don't have road salt and our climate is fairly dry. Ha! I say that as it is raining. But less than 10" of rain a year is pretty typical.

Damn, $1100 for a pair of OEM FJ55 fender lowers!!

I paid about $285, delivered for mine about 2-3 years ago. Might have to throw them in a safe deposit box at the bank for safekeeping. Hee Hee.
