Ok, well I can't fawking believe I am doing this but here it goes.
For sale
Early 74 fj40, 3 speed floor shift, ford 302. Vehicle was a frame off about 8 years ago. There is no rot on this truck anymore. Rig is white with grey hard top. Tail gate was taken off and panel was welded in. Comes with soft top in good shape. Brakes were completely replaced a couple years ago. Drum all around. Good tires 31's, black rockcrawler rims, new warn hubs, Warn 9000i winch with hell for stout front bumper and winch plate. Winch is in perfect condition. Tuffy console, rear fold down seats are perfect (recovered a few years ago). Front seats are out of a VW jetta, very comfy. It's lifted with extended shackles, Rancho 5000 shocks. Rides good. No idea what was done to the suspension, it was like this when I bought it 8 years ago. Swing out rear tire carrier, new clutch master and slave was recently installed (old was leaking). Vehicle runs a little rough on start up but runs excellent once it's warmed up. Could use a tune up, but it's not critical. I drive it all the time. It's never left me stranded...ever. Custom gauges, miles on motor are unknown. Synthetic 10-30 is all I have ever run in it. All fluids are new. Front and rear diffs drip a tad at the drain plugs. New seals would probably stop this, I just haven't gotten around to it yet. Other then that, no leaks that I know of. Tranny is solid, clutch feels good. 4 wheel drive in perfect working order. PO put the diamond plate on it. I have physical pictures of what is under it. It's not hiding rust, that I can assure you and I have the pics to prove it, they just aren't digital. I will try to get to a point to scan them but I don't own a scanner so this might be a pain in the ass.
Trailer is a 1967 M-416. Exterior was grinded and sprayed white (rattle can), looks good though. Rims appear to be stock to the trailer, sprayed black. New lights and 4 plug wiring harness. Plugs right into the 40. Pintle in good shape. Pintle hitch is bolted on rear of 40 with hangers welded to rear with D ring shakles for the chains. Very secure. Trailer has a black cover. Interior is a little rusty, nothing a sandblaster and some truck bed liner wouldn't fix. 2 days and a huge mess and it would be perfect. No serious rust on trailer, just surface crap in the bed. Shocks are new, tires are in OK shape.
Vehicle is located in Bellingham WA.
More pics available upon request.
Asking $8500 for the whole package. I DO NOT want to sell this rig, I have to for financial reasons. I have 3 rigs, one of them has to go. Shoot me a PM or email
