Hello folks (1 Viewer)

Hi all,
We recently purchased a '74 in Kelowna. I don't know much about the restoration job that was done but we think it got aluminum all over (perhaps from Aqualu?). The transfer case screams down the road and it doesn't engage 4H/L, but otherwise, she runs great. I wouldn't be surprised if this specific truck is on here somewhere already or perhaps one of you had done the resto on it...
Cheers, Tobki

Cool welcome I don’t think I’ve seen that one before but I’m in the lowermainland
kelowna is home Aqualu I see it has their fenders. Would need more pics to tell ya what’s been done. What engine also. Probably aluminium tub also and the half doors from Aqualu

We just moved from the coast to the eastern Kootenays. I miss the ocean.
Appreciate the tip on the finders. I'm sure the tub is theirs. The owner wasn't too sure about the details. He had purchased the truck for his daughter some years ago.

One thing for sure, the aluminum is the best thing for that area. If I ever replaced tub/parts on my FJ40 living in rust prone areas, it would be aluminum.

Welcome, and that’s a nice look FJ40 you got there. Enjoy!

Welcome! That’s a very clean 40. Looks like it had a frosty ride home.
