Hello everyone,
I have enjoyed these forums for a while now. I am new at posting, so please forgive any mistakes.
I have recently found a '66 FJ40. I have only viewed it at a distance. After some research, I have contacted the owner. He said he intended to restore it but never found the time. In his words, "It's time to let it go to someone that will take care of it." I will not be able to view it closely for at least a month, due to owner's work.
A few things he said about it:
Factory 6 cyl & 3 speed on the column
Corrugated hardtop with dual folding rear panels
Dual doors at rear of tub
Has not ran in many years, didn't say how long
Now the questions:
Where do I find the model numbers for the drivetrain? He thinks it's all original.
Other than condition of the tub, what else should I look at?
Possible factory options?
Any input will be greatly appreciated.
