thinking about selling my 40. I just aquired a locked 80 that I will be dumping cash into so i think its a good call to sell this rig.
It has goodies. And extras to boot
-webber carb
-8000lb warn winch
-Dual Gas tanks with dash switch
-Full Cage
-Decent Hard top with Latch
-2.5" lift
-33" tires
-Tac guage
-additional water, temp, oil guages
-extra low mileage engine with all the goods
-cut out front fenders
-cut out rear fenders
-8 ball transfer knob
-1971 Parts 40
-Saginaw power steering/pump etc.
-front brake lock
-seat covers
I am only going to ask $3500 for this rig. I drive it every day and it does great on the trails. It gets up to 66mph on the freeway and has some wobble but I think this is common.. There are some issues with this rig. The water jacket on the left side of the engine has a crack in it, and has had this crack for around 5 years now. It has just started to leak some (thats why I am kicking in another complete F.) However the engine works great and other than adding water every 60 miles performs just fine. Another issue is the mph guage. It doesnt work. It is missing a right hood latch and I've never tried to get the winch to work so I dont know about the winch functionality. It also has a switch that puts out 12 volts when starting and 8 volts when running... dont know why but it does. Sometimes it takes 30 seconds to start.
I dont know if these are minor issues to one who is looking for one of these rigs but I think 3500 is a killer deal... I dont think I will split this stuff up because I want it all gone and the cash to invest into my LV80.
Let me know if your interested... some of the cruiserheads around seattle have seen this roll and a few have driven it. Maybe they will pipe up.
if you want some old pictures go to this link... since these pictures, I've sandblasted and painted the roll bar and slapped on some seat covers.

The truck is in great shape with very little rust (seattle)
