I bought this really cool 1969 FJ40 a couple of years ago. All original. It turned out needing the rear tub re-done, so I bought all the sheet metal and am having @arthog do the work for me. He's an experienced welder and a cruiser head. That is expected to be completed by July/August, this summer. Terry says the sheet metal will have primer on it.
I have the title for it. It runs and drives just great. Did a carb rebuild. It's still 3 on the tree. The glass is all intact. It still has the original bench seats and rear jump seats. I did convert the bath oil filter over to the adapter for a more modern filter. It's got some roller tires on it at the moment. I've got the original hubcaps. Oh, and I have a working set of the rear hatch struts, that it comes with.
I was pretty excited when I got it and had big plans to upgrade the drive train, etc. As you can see from the list below I amassed a large quantity of parts to do the upgrade. The only things I still hadn't purchased were the brake booster/master and the later split circuit brake lines.
I would love to sell it all as a package deal. At the very least I would like to sell the 40 before I entertain selling off all the parts I've accumulated, so please do not ask me for parts piecemeal. Once the vehicle is sold I will repost whatever parts are left if they were not part of the sale. Parts prices listed include shipping I paid for.
It has taken Terry some time to work on it. I'm not blaming him, but I have lost my enthusiasm for it. As some of you know I am an avid scuba diver and I'd rather go diving than work on a project car.
If you want to see it, it is up at Terry's Black Hawk. I'm sure he wouldn't mind. I'll sell just the vehicle for $15k but would prefer to sell it all for a reasonable offer. If you are interested, please PM me.
