Wanted Mid Mo - FJ40 project around $3500

It’s time to get another FJ40. It’s been too long. I want a project, as I can’t afford a finished rig. I understand the limitations on a price point around $3500.

Ideally I would like the rig to have something positive(not rotting, running, frame solid, etc). I do want a hard top. Prefer a ‘76 or newer due to the disc brakes but understand I can’t be picky.

I’ve searched the Facebook market place as much as I can by moving the search area around with little results. For the right rig I’ll travel the distance needed. Ideally 7-8 hours one way from mid-MO.

TIA

Not sure if you're still looking, but I got a line on one for $4500, but I wonder if they could be talked down or you could be talked up a little i.e. ~$4000.
It is a 77 with hardtop. It's in Lake Tahoe near Reno. I've been emailing back and forth with the owner and they sent me a few extra pics. Let me know and I'll forward you the information I have.
