If you consider selling this 78 off in parts I would be interested in the tub and other body pieces. My tub was bad on my 78 and everything else is good.

x2 if you part it out I would also be interested in parts.

Is this thing in parts or a roller? I'd be interested maybe if it's towable. Got any picks? Nice Tub is extremly important!!!

Axles and springs on chasis, tub sitting on it, needs to be trailered. here are some tub pics. you can see some pitting but no rust through

 

[truvaine]

any pictures besides those? overall of the vehicle?
that might help you out a bit.

The chasis has been blasted and painted. It has a man afre shackle reversal kit on it . It should be re welded as the po did a terrible job welding. Brand new Man A FRE 4" lift springs with hecklethorn shocks. Good gas tank, front seats need recovering, nice gas tank, top is nice with the exception of a few bubles on the bottom. I was going to put this together and ended up buying a fj55 and doing that. This is a project. It need to be painted and assembled. The parts are good and this will make a nice rig when done. Like I said basically everything but the front fenders and side marker and rear lights. It is packed away in a shed so pictures are hard to get.
