Trade 69' FJ40 CA Special Black and Gold Plates

Location

United States

First day of Spring and I wanted to test the waters on MUD. I have a 1969 FJ40. It is an original CA truck with black and gold licenses plates. I have owned it for a few years now, but haven’t done much wheeling with it as I intended to mostly for the fear of messing stuff up. It is too original and clean non-rusted truck that deserves a frame off restore in my opinion, which I am not in a place to do right now. I would love to get out and hit the trails this Spring and Summer, so my intentions are to trade my truck for something more trail worthy. Nothing beat up or trashed, but something that I can drive to the trails, wheel and drive back home. I would love an FJ45, I know long shot , but would like another FJ40, maybe even a 55.​

Details on my FJ40
· Stock F motor with approx 37K, I believe rebuilt in the 80’s.
· 3 speed converted to floor shift with vacuum actuated transfer case
· PTO winch
· Sand dune color
· Running 33” x 9.5” BFG pizza cutters J with matching spare
· Optima battery with dual battery option
· Autometer gauges
· Magnaflow muffler with new pipe
· Roll bar
· Have stock rear seat frames needs upholstery
· Front bench and driver seat in good condition
· 2 ½” Lift with extended anti-inversion shackles in the back
· Front brush guard
· Hard top and doors and in good shape
· Soft half doors and bikini top

I am sure I am missing some info here, so please feel free to ask if you have any questions. Again I am testing the waters as I am not sure if this is the right decision Let me know what you guys think. I have always valued this community!

Hmmm....
1. I'd like to see more pictures as I am sure others will too.
2. I'm super into the black plate thing, so to me thats a MAJOR selling (keeping) point.
3. I think you meant "floor shift", no "floor s***"
4. If it were me, I would keep this and get another one to wheel. One that you dont care how beat it gets.
Dont sell it, but if you do, I have a '98 Audi A4 I will trade ya!

I'll try to get some more pics up this weekend. Haha..nice catch how embarrassing, fixed this . Most likely I will end up keeping it, I know it would be hard to find another like this, just wish I had the funds to get a beater . I am looking for something to wheel with, but thanks for the offer. Cheers.
