Just wanted to introduce myself. I’m Adrian and I’m the FNG. Just bought a 1973 FJ40 here in northern Ca. Yes I know my bezel is upside down but it’s the least of my worries. Already found two issues I need to address! Thanks for having me on board.

It’s a 73 per the registration. FJ40147530Looks like a 1970/1971 ? What is the frame number ? If it is a 70/71, hood is wrong.
What makes it look like a 71? My understanding is 3 on the floor came out in ‘73, so it couldn’t be a 70/71.Looks like a 1970/1971 ? What is the frame number ? If it is a 70/71, hood is wrong.

Ah gotcha. I’m very new to this truck so teach on. I apparently have a lot to learn, not just the history but the mechanics of it as well. Want to help diagnose?Well, the only images I could see is outside. You did not post interior images. That said, the apron lights along with turn signals date it for a few years. I am not sure when the hood spear went away so a 1973 it certainly could be. That is why I asked the frame number, it is the root of the vehicle.

Looks 73’ from limited pics... does it still have the King Kong reverse light?
Those get damaged
