Wanted Parts needed for 1962 FJ40 build

[Matthew Deweese]

New to this site. looking for some 1962 fj40 parts. im sure its going to be hard but giving it a shot. I need original front seats, dash switches, both front and back blinkers. door guts for passenger and maybe even driver side. I have all the body parts just need the misc stuff. Thanks for the time.

I have seats but I think you’d be better off posting your location to find something nearby. Shipping is often a deal killer. My zip is 20912 btw

Start a thread in the FJ25 section and post of pics of your truck. We like pictures!

do you have pictures? what do you want for them? i dont mind paying shipping.

I’ll be able to take some pictures later this week. I’ve shipped via Fastenal, Greyhound & Forward Air for heavy stuff in the past. What’s the shipping zip? I was thinking $200 for both drivers’ seat & passenger bench.

That’s a good deal for 1960-1962 specific seats.

@Splangy & @Matthew Deweese I’m not very experienced in the early trucks... So, I will admit I do not know the difference in front seats. the parts truck is a 66. Here’s some pictures of the truck (with some interior picts) right from the mud ad before I bought it:

1966 seats aren’t correct for your 1962. The passenger seat may bolt up, but the driver seat hold down latches on your toolbox will not line up with the 1966 drivers seat.

Seriously, head over to the FJ25 section. You’ll learn everything you need to know about your early fj40 there.

These photos (not mine) showing the difference between 1962 and 1963 seats---as seen from this angle----might help focus your search?

1962: 2-FJ40-16668

1963: 3-FJ40-19821

62 has some unique stuff. I have all the dash switches you need out of my 61. Should be the same.It will be a week before I can get to them. Post some pics of your 62 and welcome to the forum.

 

[Matthew Deweese]
