I had seen this beauty a year or two ago while I was out pumping chit in a little Deliverance type village called Sammyville. The "Mayor", Sammy, passed away in 2014. He was quite a character, even had a low budget movie made about him. He loved his Cruisers. I have his old 1967 FJ45 I'm wrapping up a frame off on and parts off of a red 1965 FJ45 I remember seeing him drive around in when I was a kid that he ended up totaling. Anyway, this Pig was part of his estate. I inquired at the time about it, but since everyone that lives around there is related to each other, a battle over his (rumored) large estate was raging.
I got a call last winter to pump some more chit in Sammyville, and as luck would have it, it was one of Sammy's daughters. I asked her about the FJ55, she said she had won the court battle over her dads estate, and that she'd sell it to me... For $300. Uh yeah, I'll take it.
