I am a sick lover of the FJ55 affectionately called IRON PIGS....but I'm sure you already knew that!:D

I just wanted to start a thread that exclusively showcased the 55's and what mods you may have done. Maybe someone has done this already if so please provide a link. But to get things started here's mine.....

I have a 72 FJ55 w/ sbc 400, TH350 trans, 3spd x-fer, torq lock out, Chevy tilt SC, Saganaw P/S,4" susp lift, 35" muds, Front Disc brakes! oh and some bumper mods will be added too...

What front seats are those?

Here's mine. SBC 350, stock 4speed & tcase. later DB front axle. AAL's and 33" MT's.

Needed a lot of work to get it ready for the road and it's nearly there. Got it cheap and can't wait to be DRIVING it regularly.

Far Off road

Why is yours sitting in a rock pile with "For Sale" written on the windshield?
Because I bought an FJ40 "built" and this 55 about the same time. At first I wanted to keep the 40 but I really liked the 55 but I had to sell one of them 4sure. Well I couldn't make up my mind so I put them both up for sale. The 40 sold the very next day after I put it up 4sale. So that solved that!

I really REALLY want to keep the 55 but I am getting alot of pressure on "the home front" to sell the 55 to pay off the ever looming "DEBT"! I hate credit cards:mad:! I am sad to say but my 55 is still 4sale but I am not trying very hard to sell it:grinpimp:!

It is just such a GREAT piggy!!! By far the best one I have ever had and I have had some where around 15 or 20!:pig::pig::pig:That's alot of Bacon! :cheers:
 
:bounce2:Fresh update.....my wife said keep it!!!!:bounce2::bounce2::bounce2:

Now I would like your feed back on how I should paint the pig:).

I really like the stock color combo...color on top, white in the middle then color on bottom. But I also like white on top and the rest in color.

What's your opinion on this?????

Pumpkin or nothing.
 
RHINO, Cool! Can you post a close up of your front bumper?
 
Looks cool thanks...I am trying to figure out how I am going to build my front bumper. I want to do a stinger...anyone have any examples of a stinger bumper on a pig???:hillbilly:
 
i assume the stinger is just cause you like the looks, not much cause for one on the longer w/b of a pig. unless you dont mean a real stinger but more like an exxagerated hoop, like shortbus' sweet arse bumper in the link above.
