Location

Great shape. Red. A little rust in the outer rockers and behind the front indicators. Couple of pin holes beside driver's seat, but otherwise rust free. Rear sill and deck are rust free as are the corners. This 40 was originally an AZ vehicle.

Mods:
4 wheel disc brakes
Full Float Rear Axle
Warn hubs on front and rear (flat tow it if you want)
H55F with split case and unobtainium drum parking brake set up (works great)
4" TPI Smoky MTN lift
Custom drive shafts
Blueprinted 2F with 25K on it since being rebuilt.
Weber 38
15x33x12.5 BFG MTs (8) and two sets of 4 steel aftermarket wheels and 5 Aluminum wheels (no original steelies)
ARB compressor and Rear Locker
4+ Bumper for 8274
WARN 8274 w/steel cable
CB
Rear Fender Flares
Skid plate for tranny/T-case
Warn Black Diamond shocks
Amsoil fluids

Have the original carb and aircleaner and some of the smog stuff, but motor was desmogged when rebuilt. Front axle service done, center arm kit done, TREs replaced. Needs virtually nothing. I've driven it 10K over the past year as my DD including two cross country trips of over 1,200 mles. Fly in and drive it home to Alaska if you want. It will do it . Currently in CO. Starts every time. Drives great. No leaks and I get 12-15 mpg. PM or email me. I'll post up pics later.

I'd prefer to sell it locally. For whatever reason most interest seems to be out of state. With that in mind I'm open to partial trade offers as I'm looking for a good on gas DD, nice VFR and/or dualsport. I'm particularly looking for a nice Corolla S. So if you have one and want to drive it out and drive the 40 back we can prolly make that work. :steer:
 
No thanks.
 
Sunday bump:)
 
Looks like the local buyer is flaking out. If you've been looking for an above average 40 for a below average price let me know. I'll let it go for $9500.
