1965

Vehicle Model

1. 45 Series

Location

Loomis, Northern California 95650 United States

Color

White

I have had all the pieces for over 10 years. However, I am getting old and at this stage of my life I just want to play with my little grandsons and go fishing!

About the truck. The bed is brand new( one of the Colombian ones advertised on mud 10-12 years ago. The cab I bought from Whitey also here on mud. The cab is Australian and very little bit of surface rust. I am also providing a FJ40 dash and firewall so you can make it easier to drive if you wish. The frame has surface rust but not bad, it is also a ‘65. It comes with doors a hood and a roof too… no fenders but they are easy to come by. Also included is a reupholstered bench seat, a new gasket set, and a ton of miscellaneous stuff.

I’m asking $14,000 OBO, these pics aren’t good but you get the idea. I will try and get it down off of the top of the sales office tomorrow.

Give me a yell if you are interested

Btw, the gasket set I mentioned is the body gaskets, not engine… I was developing it with a Thai company but some of it is wrong. It all fits perfectly but instead of a left and right side there might be two lefts. And it is two sets like that! Lots of good trading material there after you take what you need. I believe I still have a land cruiser embossed bezel also…it will go with it.

I wish brother. I was born and raised up the road from you in Grass Valley and enjoyed being a young buck exploring the sierras in my FJ40.

Seeing your location and a dream project is a beautiful sight, just not in the cards for what you’re (fairly) asking.

 

[Dan Fredrickson]

No worries, I’m sure it will make it to a good home

 

[Dan Fredrickson]

Getting lots of messages, so you are all aware this is a builder. I do have a tundra third and Ruffstuff housing I could include and I may have a hi pinion 8” front… I do also have the leaf springs, personally I was going to link the rear, spring the front…

The top is perfect and original steel, I have 2 cab back panels, one is perfect and one has minor dent on the passenger side, which one you get would depend on if you are paying full price or not

And yes, that is the 40 dash and firewall that comes with it. Btw, it does have a gas tank

Dan, thanks for the tour today. I feel fortunate to have seen everything in person before a builder steps up and takes this over the finish line. You sourced some amazing parts and will give someone a great foundation. I hope to see you again at the Swap meet. I looks like it is on May 30th. GLWTS

I think at some point I was robbed by the fiberglass guy, I had a perfect steel top and used it to make a mold. Then the fiberglass guy turned out to be a tweaker and disappeared owing the landlord. The landlord would not give me the mould, or the 10 tops that were curing when the guy disappeared. Not even when I offered to pay him for them. In the end I got 2 glass tops and I thought the original steel. It is not to be found but I do have a perfect, new glass top. Never mounted.

Dan, can I ask where the tub came from? You mentioned “Columbia” in your first post. Was it Troa, or some other source? Are you happy with it? I’m looking for a tub and tailgate for my 77 FJ45. Thank you.

I think it was from before troa, I’ve had it 11-12 years. It may be from the company that became troa? And to be honest I have never heard of troa. I was not planning on selling it alone but you might convince me.

Btw, I am very happy with the appearance, and it came primered and has never seen paint and more importantly it has never had a spot of rust. I repaired a bed once and that really is key, I had over 200 hours into a repair. That’s why I bought this, 200 hours and it still was not nearly as good.

 

[MCGoalie]

I’ll PM you. Thank you.

 

[RevISK]

I’ll PM you. Thank you.

If you want to inquire about any parts from TROA I can help as I’m a small distributor for them.

 

[ratacruel]

could you PM me, I send few questions, Thanks in advance Dan
