40 series general tech and classifieds

[Domek]

so is that a good 40?

I guess you could push start it like they did in the Bolivian rainforest special of Top Gear. You are welcome to come to Brandon MS and borrow my old starter that was starting to wear out. It is an easy install of you want to really see if runs, assuming the 2F starter would work on a F engine.

Just saw this, thx for the offer. Doubt the starter would have helped though. Truck had been sitting for 2 years. Mechanically it looked ok, but rust everywhere. Body was a mess too, rust like shown on both doors. Tires dry rotted, etc.

5 hours of driving later, the search continues...

The front looks like something off Mad Max.

Yeah it was def homemade. Also of you look close at the 2nd pic you can see the custom fenders made from 2" angle iron.

Shush's pile is starting to look very good I bet.

 

[SHUSH]

^ mine was the same original color.

im considering removing the top for cruising......my cruiser karma dictates that as soon as I do one of 2 things will happen....I will have serious interest and have to put it back on or I will some how manage to mangle the top and get stuck with a bikini top only......

YES, yes it is. I'm moving houses all week and next weekend, and something tells me if Shush's rig is still for sale after that I will be making a trip to Brandon...

Shush,

Was in Mendenhall, MS, south of you guys.

Guy bought it a few years ago and never touched it. Was rough...and he was asking $4500.

That 40 looks like it ran through a rod iron gate and the gate stuck to the bumper.
People do some stupid s***.

 

[SHUSH]

PERFECT description.

I found the above ad on cl when trying to see if this 40 I saw in fondren today was the one that was for sale in flowood. Also saw a nice 100 parked next to it with MT sliders and Nitto Terra Grapplers.

That is Ron's 100 and Jason's 40. Not Spivey, not Derek.

Hahaha

Derek's has some Mickey Thompson's on it....not sure of the color though.

...if Shush's rig is still for sale after that I will be making a trip to Brandon..

What? Shush has decided to unload the 40? Again?

 

[SHUSH]

Yeah see sigline. Bought a 100 for a famiy rig....just fits our life better right now

speaking of my truck just rode down to DNPs warehouse o fun to get some tires that came with my 100, in the 40....BAD idea...man it's fun to drive

I saw what looked to be an 81 40 that was restored maybe? Judson green, bikini top...guy waved but didn't pull over despite me hanging out the window. I was on old flowood drive by the metal works

How many 40s are in Jackson?

I might be in mecca tomorrow to look at a lexus for the princess.

John, any chance of seeing the 40? I will be staying in Castlewoods as long as fedex does
not send me somewhere in the am.
