I talked to JT and he thinks he and JROb have a couple laying around.

The spare was cheap enough that i figured i would go ahead and get it for my collection.

I'll drop mine off to Rob as well, in case my new one takes awhile to get here.


All good!
 
Hey, was hoping someone would know some info about the hj47 auto cancel for the indicators? I know the 60 series have a spring and collar that cancel but I can't find any information or pictures showing this similar set up in the 40 series?
Thanks

I finished this project today.

6 weeks. 108 Hours labor. $8500 in parts.

It's pretty bad ass. I really am happy with the end product.

Mississippi Delta Beast - 1974 FJ-40 Rescue and Rehabilitation
 
I know y'all love that patina but if that rig is as solid as it should be I would have had to paint it. Just me...
 
Mine or Andy's? The Delta Beast needs weatherstripping for the doors and the liftgate but the top was reinstalled with good weatherstripping and it's nice and tight
The one pictured. I just couldn't let it rust. It's just me. Rock awn!
 
He owner and I both prefer the used look. Fresh paint is for posing.
Unless you don't want future generations to be able to enjoy a classic. I'd paint a solid body 40. Just my opinion...
 
I think you discount the change in conditions these things enjoy once rescued.

My truck went from 48 years of being put up wet in the elements to living the clean pampered life in a climate controlled shop.

It's not going disenegrate and by painting it you destroy its story.

That would be like white washing my house.
 
I have a new unused 4 plus drivers side battery tray if anyone needs a good solid tray I'm pretty sure it's the 12" one I can check if interested , thanks Dave

those smoke stacks coming out of the hood are so awesome. @jrob needs a set of them.
 
Anyone have an F1.5 or 73/74 parts for the 40, need shroud, air cleaner, exhaust and intake manifold, carb spacers, diffs, drive shafts
