craigslist (not mine) FJ40 collection near Dallas TX

FJ40 Collection

FYI: I tried to ask him if he'd consider selling just one of his FJ40's or if it's all or nothing.....no response. I'm assuming that means all or nothing.

Group buy!

I contacted him right when he posted a month ago about buying a single truck and he would screen my call and not return my messages.

Well...I might have a little regret putting his ad on here to help him out if he's going to be a jerk. If he won't consider breaking up his collection he should put that in his ad.

That makes me feel a little better.

I reached out to him as well to see if he would sell his trailer full of parts and heard nothing.

Between all of us..... he may have sold it all.

Personally think it would all sell quick if broken up!

I've seen this up for months. maybe not the original, but I've seen this add before. I was looking for cruisers in Texas, as I have friends there, and came across it. I just assumed it had sold. I guess not..

I tried to contact him. No response.

Why does someone put up an ad on craigslist and not take any calls?

OK, I'm new hear (first post). I am looking to find a project for my son and I. I've owned a couple of 40s (and lots of other old 4x4s). I just moved and live about 1 mile from this "collection". .....I only want 1 project....and I'm not swimming in cash the day after Christmas....so my question is: Do you guys have any inputs on how long it may take to off load the 3 non-running FJ's to try and re-coup some money??? All 4 are non-runners but supposedly have titles. I am going to see them in about an hour, Thanks

 

[Rusto]

I'll be curious as to what you find. As far as unloading them.. it all comes down to price as it relates to condition. Titles most definitely help. I bet you could move 'em pretty fast (3 months or less) in my opinion, if you're not looking to finance your entire build by selling them.

I'm wouldn't be trying to make any money, just break even.....and keep the nicest of the 4 for my son.....just don't have room like he does to store 4 of them

 

[YoYoHo]

How did you go ? are you now the owner of the Hoard ?

Any updates based on your visit?

 

[reddog90]

The seller has a new(er) ad up with better pictures. Has anyone had luck buying parts off him? Seems like he wants someone to come in and buy everything in one deal.

Can you post a link to the new CL ad? I want to see this collection!

Id be interested in one of the green ones, as long as its not a huge pain in the butt to get it running.

 

[reddog90]

I left him another voicemail several days ago and haven't heard back. I specifically did not mention in the voicemail that I was interested in parts, just that I wanted to visit with him about his ad. I'm not sure why someone would take the time to make an ad and not respond to any attempts to contact him. Maybe it's spam.
