Me maybe; her not so much. I will just have to see where this long and slow build will go.

Couldn't afford to spend the money right now but the price we agreed on was just to good to pass up.
 
Well done and congrats David. I had planned to scoop that up this am but my day had other plans for me. Thats two in a row so maybe thats a sign i dont need one ;)

I missed two or three because the sellers wanted to much. One I was the high bidder on ebay but the reserve was far higher than I was willing to bid and the auction ended with no sale. He listed a day later with his reserve price as the buy it now price and someone got it quick.
 
There was one on 64 near Ramseur a few months back for sale on the side of the road. It looked a LOT like David's new one, though.
 
No affiliation, saw this on White Cross Road outside Chapel Hill.

1971 FJ40, 95%+ stock, brand new 31x10.50 Cooper AT3's. From PO:

****

"This rig still has it's original spring green paint and overall truck is in very original condition.
I purchased this truck out of Colorado and it's very solid with a few rust areas that I have pictured.
Rear sill is gone, rust on passenger outer rocker where the attachment bracket is, and a little rust on passenger fender.
The rest of the truck is solid including solid floor pans, frame, etc.
Runs, drives, and stops well.

Here is a list of what I have done to it recently:
- New windshield with Toyota windshield gasket and locking strip
- New Toyota soft brake lines
- New Aisin clutch master
- New Aisin brake master
- New brake booster
- New Toyota air filter
- New Toyota fuel filter
- New soft fuel lines
- New Toyota radiator
- New Toyota thermostat, gaskets, and housing
- New Water pump and gaskets
- New Toyota fan belt
- New Toyota alternator pulley and fan
- New Toyota cooling system hoses and clamps
- New radiator overflow bottle

The truck is very original which is why I bought it.

I have an AwlTeq rear sill ready to go in; some misc and spare parts; new windshield-mounted mirrors; 4 BFG MT in EC I'll throw in; all new 555 steering rod ends installed; new rear stock-height shocks; CityRacer LED headlights; OverlandMetric 1000-pc yellow zinc hw kit; have some new OEM lenses and emblems; some other s*** I'm probably forgetting. Doesn't stop well or at all, which is only regression since I got it.

What it needs: front brake work is all needs to be driveable every day. Address the numerous leaks (engine, tranny xfer); minor electrical (e.g. license plate lamp, cluster); address rust; reupholster.

Located in Holly Springs (Raleigh). $10k/neg, no trades. Clean NC title. PM, email (jmiccich@gmail.com) or call nine 1 nine, six 1 zero 00 four ate. Pls do not text, I hate texting.

Why am I selling already? 1) Being honest, my mechanical skills are pretty s***ty which frustrates me and makes my anxiety even worse and 2) I am not going to pay someone to do all the work it needs b/c having savings etc is more important to me than a hobby vehicle.

Pull this post down and lets HAMOM that baby.
 
Anybody want a FREE one-owner '84 2WD Suburban? The truck is located in Matthews, NC. It belongs to a friend of mine. The truck suffered major engine damage last week and is in need of a heart transplant. I'm not sure what exactly happened. My friend is not a mechanically inclined person so he couldn't say. He had it towed to a shop and they told him it was a major, metal on metal engine failure (whatever that means).

I have not seen the truck in several years. It has spent it's life in the Charlotte area. From the pic it looks like there may be some rust under the rear PS door...or it could just be crud. Who knows? It was a kid hauler back in the day and I've ridden in it many times with his family but that was years ago. It's a land yacht and would be a great truck for a handy-man to work out of or for a tow vehicle or maybe for roadside car camping. SBC engine would be cheap and easy to replace. PM me if you are interested and I'll put you in touch with the owner.
