I must get a note per week under my wiper asking to sell my 40........Eddy can park in my neighborhood and I will get this sold in a few weeks. :)

driving it around is probably the best sales pitch !
 
Before and after a cloth wipe and some paste wax of a quarter-panel to show how the paint can shine up:

S'matterwitchu, huh? It's d@mn near perfect as-is! You must be knocking $500 off it's value each time you take wax to it! Stop that! :slap:
 
Would you be interested in cash and an OK fj62?

It totally depends on how much cash. With $20000 cash, I could get that to pass CA smog and still come out about where I want to be. :)

Seriously, the GF wants something she can drive, not something for me to work on. It would have to be a somewhat pristine fj62 to fit the bill. She's seen too many nice 2006-7 100 series.
 
I enjoyed the mud buy/build thread. It looks like you have spent a lot of time working on this girl and have had some great times. I’m hoping to find a 40 my 4 year old boy and 18 month girl will have great memories of!
 
Your first post said a built 80 but from your last post it sounds you want something cushy for your girlfriend. Are you still interested in a built 80?

The right one, yes. It has to be nice, not built then beat, if you know what I mean. Hit me with some pics.

The ask has evolved a bit as she looks around. Snorkels are apparently somewhat offensive, come to find out. :rolleyes:
 
A diesel will probably not fly in sunny CA unless it's already titled here. No sense of humor down there at the DMV. Which diesel?

There's an hdj-81 (1HDT) down by San Diego that is our favorite. Can't deal with another vehicle until we thin the herd though.

It is a 1996 so exempt and it was already titled diesel in California. Vette60, who is still on mud, from placerville built it. George at Valley Hybrids did the transfer case and possibly some of the other bits.
