A few weeks ago an old friend came to the CottonLand monthly gathering and we were discussing his 1971 FJ40. He’s had it a few years but he’s never been able to fully enjoy it because it just never drove and ran correctly.
I was just finishing up the CBrown 60 and was headed to get my next project the Seminole 45. I told him I’d ride by one day and give it a look-see and we could come up with a plan.
After I got the Seminole 45 to a stopping point waiting for a motor I decided I’d just go ahead and get the 71 Forty and start ordering parts and work on it while I was waiting.
I grabbed it last week and then started ordering parts.
I was gone to Florida then to the Roundup so I had time for things to start stacking up.
Today it got real.
