SOLD FJ55 Top

Looking for an FJ55 top for a buddy. His is pretty far gone. Would prefer to be cut about 4” down from the rain gutter all the way around. He is willing to come get it or pay for transport.

Image showing approximate cut line. Hopefully your cut is straighter than my drawing.

I have this one available in Wyoming if nothing closer shows up. Very clean and straight. Thanks, Dennis

I also have this one. Very solid, but has major dents that would need to be addressed. It may be better for gutter patch sections. Thanks, Dennis

 

[bmoonhajjar]

Thanks Dennis. Both in Wyoming I presume?

Yep! 82435 near Yellowstone Park. Pick up a FJ55 top and see Old Faithful!

Did I see a LV in the background?

1964. Resting peacefully for the moment!

Dennis, if my buddy has a 79 will either of these work? I can’t pretend to know much about the FJ55 changes from year to year.

The green one is a 1972. The red one is a 1975. I believe there was a change in the windshield pillar/front door around the 1977 time frame. Let the Pig experts speak! oink, oink!!!!

Sort of. The A pillar to roof angle changed for later Pigs. Early angle is sharper. Later angle is rounder. The matching front door angle changed to match. I believe that a later, rounder angle door will fit on an early roof, but might look funny

@bmoonhajjar you might want to post in the 55 forum FJ55 Iron Pig Preservation Society - https://forum.ih8mud.com/forums/fj55-iron-pig-preservation-society.51/. I have a roof as well but I’m in VA. There’s several 55 guys with multiple trucks (some parts trucks) who are in CA. Also if you look thru the most recent ads here: For Sale - FACEBOOK several different 55's - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/facebook-several-different-55s.1229150/ there were several parts trucks for sale as well.
