This is my first post so I wanted to introduce myself. I have owned my 1974 FJ55 for just over a year now and I am relatively new to the hobby. From browsing the site for awhile I have seen how helpful and knowledgable you guys are. I can use all the advice and help you guys can give. In addition to it's current status as my daily driver I am planning on using it as our family off-roader.
The day we brought him home.
So far some of the mods include:
Upon getting the truck home, and noticing a strong fuel smell, we discovered that the p.o. had thought it wise to drill through the cargo floor and directly into the fuel tank!
So after replacing the tank with a Man-A-Fre long range tank I am now left with a stock tank with a not-so-stock hole. I don't know if the hole is repairable but I thought it a shame to throw it away before asking if anyone wants it.
Anyone?
Stock tank.
Not so stock hole.
I live in So. Cal. if anyone is interested.
