I need to get rid of one of the projects...
Smurf blue FJ40 w/ factory power steering and AC. 83k miles. Everything is clean but the tub. Frame excellent, still has much of the factory black paint. Interior is great. Engine runs sweet and strong. Shifts, steers, drives great. I purchased it with the understanding that the body would need no work... Caveat Emptor. It has patches, filler, and rust. It could be restored or replaced. I begain digging out the filler, cutting a little, found more rust than I care to play with. pics upon request.
Investment guestimate
$7500 purchase price
$1200 in 5 new tires and 16" Toyota steely wheels
$1500 in Eshan soft top and half tailgates
$1200 in suspension, OME, Superlift, Koni
$950 Superwinch Husky
What it needs
Main rear seal,
Pinion seal,
Body restored
Probably a few other various items
I'll take $12000.
