Some of you might have seen this on the classified momentarily, 76 FJ well I am the proud owner and as my title says I am a rookie at this, picked it up two weeks ago and have not had a chance to assess my buy. I did all of the first buyer mistakes , even though I read the FAQ with all the warning signs! Problem was that I committed to the vehicle unseen so I did not feel right to back out of the deal. I went into this knowing I might have to replace the tub as it looked pretty rough. But the more I get into looking at the vehicle closer.. I would be lying if I said there is no buyers remorse. At the same time, I have seen several threads and have seen several of the FJs being resurrected on this forum and it gives me hope. But at the moment , there is one word to describe how I feel.. Overwhelmed!! I really do not know what I am getting myself into yet, but I crawled under the vehicle to take a few pics , which should give you some sign of things to come, so critic away and don't hold back the punches. Just need to know what I am getting myself into.
These the first few pics:
