Hi to everyone.
I've been reading the forum for years but this is my first post.
I just won an FJ40 at auction here in Dubai and it's my first. Ive been a series Land Rover man in the past but am keen to work on a Toyota for the first time.
This on is an ex-Saudi vehicle. 1983 by vin number and it's a non-runner. (On inspection the HT leads are completely melted for a start). It turns over fine though.
400k on the clocks so may actually be a genuine kilometres reading?
AC, heater and power steering fitted (OEM??? Not sure yet)
The previous owner has painted it nicely outside but there is rust lurking beneath
I call it a Sheep in Wolf's clothing...
I only take ownership in a few days but wanted to introduce myself now as I'm sure I will be relying heavily on the expertise here in the future.
