My '78 Arrived Yesterday Morning
My '78 FJ40 arrived yesterday morning and I've been admiring her ever since!
I bought it from Classic Car Liquidators (classiccarliquidators.com), in Sherman, TX.
Although there were delays in getting it delivered, they gave me reupholstered seats (front buckets and jump seats), to make it worth waiting.
It was a pleasure to work with professionals like Clay (salesman) and Donnie (general manager).
We've named her "44-40" - for 44th wedding anniversary and FJ40 and a reference to the 44-40 caliber bullet, used by the Winchester '73 and pistols as well.
44-40 has the original 2F engine, the original 4-speed and just over 93k miles (not sure if it's original mileage).
We think she's gorgeous and a joy to drive!
She came down the ramp, sporting a tow bar, but I took it off as soon as I could!
