Wanted FJ40 Project Truck-Father/Son Project

Hello,


Looking for an FJ40, running or not to buy as a project truck for my son and I to work on together. Looking for something 76 or newer. Does not have to be in the Oklahoma area, just needs to have a title.

Rust is okay, does not have to run, just needs to be semi-complete or complete with potential.

Prefer not to buy one completely disassembled but am interested in hearing what is out there.

Limited budget of $3-6K or less. Preferably less. Maybe you don't have one for sale but know of one available? A finder's fee would not be out of the question either.


Thank you for your help.

I just re-read and noticed your price point, so below may not be what you are looking for. Posting it up for you anyway. I literally just went through my ebay alert email and saw this one in OK, then saw your post here on mud and mention of you being in OK.

Thanks-Any help is welcome. Hoping to find a later model if possible. I appreciate it though.

I'm finding things have really changed in the 10 years since I searched for and bought my 40... Numerous people asking 50, 60, $70K+ for their FJ40s... Others selling 40s in pieces, in boxes for 12K-15K *(Well asking, I don't know about selling them).

CRAZY HIGH asking prices everywhere it seems.

Oh well... That makes it that much more satisfying when you find a good deal I suppose.

The search continues...

I know you prefer a project not in pieces but the price point is right

I would agree that does look like a decent deal. Wish it was close by here. No rust to speak of it appears.

If it was closer, one of us would be its new owner.
