Rust? Original paint? Looks like a very nice 40.

Nice rig! I cruise through Kingsburg often on the way to the Sierras

Only surface rust (DA sander to the hood w/ rust prevent blk primer) & a few other areas. New paint would be great & 0 body work needed, only surface prep.
the PO waxed it 2x a year every year until 96 or so then had it in covered storage w/ the last few (5?) uncovered, dont ask me why...

I had a 67 that went to pismo all the time & had the typical FJ rust but this one has never been to the beach.

Does it still have the original steering?

Great looking truck, and to find one with such low mileage is truly amazing. I think the black hood looks good as-is!

Someone's going to get a great truck with this one.

Orig. steering.

Wow. nice rig. If I could convince the wife I would have to take a road trip. My 10 year old wants one for his first car. I would have a hard time letting him drive this though. Why on earth would you want to sell this?

 

[jp78fj40]

Job change. no more 20 miles each way to work. I need a truck again. This is the FJ of a lifetime for me...I dont want to let it go, but...

I love road trips, & Grand Canyon, Colorado, Lake Tahoe is a little tough in an FJ.

I had a 67 FJ40 for my first car. I bumped into one of my teachers cars cause brakes were out of ajustment. my dad & I did some work on then that weekend. 5 years later I converted to disk on all 4.

Very nice rig...priced reasonably too, which is nice to see...it does get a little tiring to see crazy pricing on not-so-special rigs.

Good luck, hope you get more than you thought you would!

 

[jp78fj40]

Thanks, I was thinking along those lines too. Price it fair & hold my ground.

 

[jelliottoregon]

Do you have any more photos of the engine bay or interior?
Again awesome rig!

 

[jp78fj40]

I have a lot of photos so PM me w/ your email & I will send them over. Maybe this weekend I will post my pics on this thread (It would be my first time so I will have to figure it out)
