My FJ40 is on its way to the muffler shop for a stainless set-up. then its just a matter of adding the final trim (bezel, etc.) and this resto is complete! We are so close I can almost smell it!

More pictures are in my album under "pendergastjm".

I wonder if that is what he meant when he wrote, "More pictures are in my album under "pendergastjm"."

I could be wrong, but when you click on his pic and it goes to his profile, and there is a section of pics under "albums", you might find a few beauties there.

I am also being an "A" hole.

Seriously, there are about a dozen or so pics in his album, and they look pretty. They are really worth the look-see.

Have a great one Bsmith.

And cool crusier Pender G.

We put on Old Man Emu 2" lift. With the tires we got about 3" to 4 " of lift compared to the original set-up. Since the vehicle only has 11,000 miles on it, it was a pretty easy restore.

You had me guessing for awhile it took several pics to figure out the year.... the one of the dash I saw the side window defroster I thought i was looking at a late 80's then I saw features that pointed to a 78.

The tires are: BF Goodrich Radial Mud Terrain T/As (33" x 10.5" x 15") I have the original tires also, but wanted something a little beefier.

It is definately a 78. The side window defrosters were on it when purchased new. Don't know if they were insatlled at the factory or the dealer back then.
