3 Donor's of BJ's 60 with two 5 speeds and two fours speeds.
So 3 spare trans & 2 engines .
Blue & Green and red are BJ60s , Blue has given It's soul and trans for a rework turbo-ed 3B 5Speed .
Most parts already bought and reworked , but I got a wake up life 4 years ago ,and that put a stop to it then.
Front end and rear ends done with new upgraded front disc's and larger calipers with the upgraded master cyl size , rears brakes also but kepted as drums.

Engine 3B reworked (@ 168kms or 100K miles ,Was fine if you see the old bearings I kept) with new bearings and rings , head done (pre cups installed etc.) and turbo installed as well as 5 speed trans .
Engine & trans with updates installed and waiting for the rest.
New Radiator installed with Turbo Intercooler ,A/C Condenser and oil coolers from engine & power steering .
Hydro Assist Brakes with updated master cylinder .
OEM suspension ,shocks etc .ready to go in and hold axles .
Heater box with installed Evaporator & heater core ,
Custom made tool boxes under the front seats ,Front seats are power from Volvo 1998V70 in grey leather with Heaters & SIPS removed ,ready to bolt in when interior is installed .

Steering column is from volvo with ignition switch and keys , Column adjust in -out up-down and has a clock spring to allow power into the air bag (removed) area for the gps system .

Body has had most of the internal yota tar removed from inner doors floor and roof , Roof has had the sound deadening and reflective insulation started with a third roll bracket installed over the rear section.
Tar still on the inner rear back side rear quarter but not on the left rear quarter , Thats where the scratch was and the ONLY surface rust is.

Roof rack has been made and bolts to the gutter brackets .Gutter brackets are welded into the top gutter area for EZ removal . Rack was going to be a complement to the outside skeleton protection I was going to fab up with Aluminum tubing (not started ) Rack done but rear to allow a ladder up somehow when on wheels..


I have boxes of new parts as well as Power windows and locks for the 60 series ,plus all that I have extracted with clips , new rubbers etc. Canadian Trucks are rotten metal with decent door panels ,dash with no cracks or sun fade .
Tan has a great metal Body with surface rust only on left lower quarter outside only .Pictures show.

Now if you want more pictures , PM me of what you like .
U-tube is in the works . This sale wont happen till next year due to weather & packing up crates of parts in the shed .
Shed is 30X50 , The tan 60 FJ is hoisted on a hoist in the shop .

Green BJ is under lean too and install a battery ,poof it runs ,Blue donor is in semi gutted but great glass with a new Windshield in Parts and seals , Tan has a new WS also.

R/F upper shock mount with new rubber inner liner skirt , the white is the shipping wax on the frame .
A good CRC or LPS undercoat will stick right into that wax . I don't like working with Undercoated till all is finished .Some areas I'll coat if it is being covered, but to have it be tracked all over when it's drying ,,I'll wait .
