TLCA #28675 Salt wagon Fj40
I saw this fj40 in Red River New Mexico on my Honeymoon. I think it was a 73. But unsure. (what the owner said) It was a very cool one. Had a 4speed manual and a 1f 155 engine. I did notice the fender openings in the rear were cut. (thought that was weird somebody would do that.
One thing I really liked was the factory style soft top. I had not looked at one in person before. I really want to get one now. would be perfect for around here at the beach. before seeing one in person I was just going to do a bestop one..... but this is soo much better looking.. and I think the one on this cruiser its a cheeper top kit. I dont mind the look of this one though.
Would anybody be able to make suggestions on where to get a top and the bows and the windshield channel? I know Real steel has the bows and a few other places. additionally a few places have the tops. I have done a-lot of research on these already and apparently tops from Julie are the way to go. (is she still in business? )
Additionally my fj40 is a 1964. I dont know if there is any issue with years and compatibility with tops. any tips would be helpful. I know @BenjaminCA has a nice video up on youtube with his that has some good info on the tops.
