Well...I will be #450. 1979 Body Rot FJ40. Runs like a champ, this is my daily driver. Had it for about 6 years, but spent 1 in the pasture and 2 in the garage in various state of repair.

Original 2F motor, but with a 4 Speed Transmission, electronic ignition, Webber Carb.
 
Four Hundred and Fiftyseven

I'll represent mud. I use this sight all the time. I'd refer it to my friends, but none of them have FJ40's. just J**p$ (which $uck)

I love my FJ40. If only i had the jingle to get it up to what I want it to be :steer:

Early 1971 FJ40

#459

This is March of 1971, so it has the 4-piece benches, which were originally coral, but they are grey at the moment.
Most of the bits and pieces are still original, including the paint on the bumpers and grill (stock pewter on this year) and I am quite proud of the job I recently did scraping off the POs black rattle-can paint from both the front and rear bumperettes. :D

It's still a bit rough around the edges, but it's currently my daily driver as I recently returned to the country after some time living in Japan and it was all I had when I got back. (returning was a surprise brought on by the earthquake)

I fully expect to do some serious restoration on this truck as soon as I can manage it, but I am indefinitely occupied with relocating. So, maybe 2 years from now.

It's been mine for about 15 years as of the writing of this (1996) and has been used infrequently up until now.
I did actually have it in Manhattan when I lived there from about 1999 to 2008. I drove it to a job I had in Queens working in a wood shop and that was a great deal of fun. Because I was driving opposite the rush hour (leaving Manhattan in the morning), I had an open road on the BQE and it only took me 10 minutes to get to Sunnyside. Parking was still a bear though, especially if I worked on a Friday.
