Collect them all 1959 FJ25 (6 Viewers)

I finally have a FJ25. My buddy @rockcod found this on FB market place a few days ago and sent it to me. Well even with everything going on getting ready for Bonneville I couldn't pass the chance. So we made a deal over the phone and picked it up this morning. 1959 FJ25 on a 1971 FJ40 frame and drivetrain. There are a few things like welded rear barn doors and a 40 tunnel cover, I was so stoked to see the original fuel tank and gas cap. Its going to be a fun semi resto build.

So wild to have that gauge cluster survive the column shift shenanigans. Looks like you've got a '58 there by the block number and speedo.

I thought it was a 1957 body. It appears to have the hole for the dash mounted turn signal switch and the upper hole for the vacuum wiper motor twist valve. It has the early Speedo plate. It does not have front cowl vents either which is like a 1957 model. I also noticed it does not appear to have eye bolt holes for the door safety straps.

Very cool truck Rob. If you need any parts let me know my friend.

Congratulations!, that’s a really cool early body. Can’t wait to see what you do with it.
