I'm looking for a stockish 1968-1975 FJ55 (non-running or V8 swap is ok). No automatic swaps. Small rust spots ok, but no major body/accident damage.

Basically something i could get running/driving in a few weekends and fix the body and interior over time.

Thanks.

Small rust spots on a 55?? Hope your budget is big!! No such thing as a rust free project 55 these days...

I know. I'm thinking of taking up welding. We'll see.

I'm mechanically inclined and did an 19-month restoration on my 74 Celica. Granted, I started with an almost straight body so I saved at the body shop.

I'm kicking myself for not grabbing either of these.

Yeah, should have grabbed either of those! You're living on the right coast for hunting a pig. @hyhpe has one in TX that fits your description.

The 1973 from Alturas with the non-running V8 was $3k or $3.5k, still a good deal.

Did you find a 55 or are you still looking? I have a complete 74 and a 75 that I was going to turn into a camper or parts truck. I'm in the Redding CA area. I'll get you some pictures if you're interested.
Thanks, Jeremy

I'll get you more pictures and details if you're interested.
