We have decided to sell my 1968 FJ40. This 40 was bought about 6 yrs ago and was pretty much rust free when I started. It has gone through a couple phases and builds and I finally have it all where I wanted it. Life has took some changes and we just won't be able to use it much. It was torn down to the tub and all what little rust was there was fixed and the inside was sprayed with Rhino lining so It can get wet even though it is always garaged if possible. I also have a soft top that is in good shape with a set of 74 hard doors that are painted to match. The window regulators are stripped out due to the new felt in the window channels. The hard top is in pieces and it has been sand blasted. You would have to find some parts if you wnated it back together. I have a custom made bikini top for the summer. Here are some of the specs of the build. If you have any questions please PM me and we can talk for hours about the 40 and I can tell you what I forgot. Asking price is 14,500 OBO, or email einspahr76@live.com

Please contact me with questions and we can exchange numbers to talk. Thanks for looking
