My FJ45 LPB Huckleberry Hauler (2 Viewers)

Those are actually really cool hubs. I think each dealer installed what they had on hand or what the customer wanted. My early Warn hubs were popular here in Oregon since it was an Oregon company. Dealers most likely got a deal on them.

I just found the warranty card for the hubs on my 45.

The original owner must have waited a short time before he put these on.

No, mine has these funky flip ones. View attachment 1899122

Start a new thread. Need some new 45 love.

Too cool.... It's amazing how close all of these serial numbers are.

Seth, if you decide to ditch the dualmatics hubs I have an extra set of the original Warns like mine I'd be willing to trade.

 

[cppilot]

Those mirrors are period correct believe or not! I had the same mirrors on my 65 FJ45 "sage" when I bought it from the original owner. Maybe a dealer add on.

Love the marbled original clear bib lenses.

Seth looks like those are Dualmatics. They were made in Colorado IIRC. I have those on my ‘63 SWB 45. I can’t believe yours and Mark’s trucks are one unit apart. Maybe compare engine S/N’s also?

 

[cppilot]

I'll check my engine number in the AM.

 

[seth]

Mine is 227450. Not sure if it’s the original engine, but I expect so.

 

[cppilot]

I couldn't wait.

Yours is an earlier vin by one, but you have three engines after mine...How cool is that...

 

[cppilot]

I'd say yes it is....

That’s awesome!!! Haha

Maybe that deadbeat @whitey45 will update the LPB list for us

 

[whitey45]

Ouch! Definately need to update.

I really like them. I assume that they should be body color?

 

[cppilot]

Yes mine were body color although most of the white paint was long gone. Do you still have the SD-40 carb? Does she run?

 

[seth]

Still have the SD-40 big window and she runs great!

 

[cppilot]

Got out for a small jaunt today checking some carburetor adjustments. I just love driving this thing....it just gets better and better.

Seth, how about some more pictures.....
