thinking about it (1 Viewer)

[green grass hopper]

so i have rust free 1973 fj-40 the motor is blowen but i have a low millaged late model 2F that i was thinking of putting in along with all the new parts one should replace when doing this kind of thing. what i am getting at is it worth doing all the work buying all the parts and then selling it for around 6 or 7k or just sell it as is for 4k? what do ya'll think.
as some of ya'll know from last meeting i need cash for a down payment so thats the only reason i would sell this cruiser.

$4k for the truck and the extra motor sounds good. You don't have to burn time getting it to work.

thats what i was thinking also. let alone i save the money i would put into all the parts.

Edwin, I agree with Dave.

Edwin,

The 40 your speakiong of, is it the one tat was broke down near my house?... Jus' wondering...

 

[green grass hopper]

no it's a green one i have here. i have been planing on building it for T (my wife Tamara) but i need the cash. so she will have to wait on her fj-40.

i think i am going to C-list it for 4500.00 w/the motor and see whats happens.

Edwin, I saw your ad on CL. I've been the photographer for the Ferrari Club for 7 years now, so I know how to take a decent photo. If you want I could swing by after work tomorrow and take a few photos of the 40 that you could use. I leave right at 5:30 & could be there by 6:00.

thanks for the offer but i was asked to go out to our deer lease tomorrow to help put up one of the new guys stuff. so i think it's going to be a all day hurt:>(
but if you don't mind maybe some other time? i still need to get it cleaned up before i start showing the girl off you know what i mean?

Yea, when I do CL, I like to meet them someplace. Not my house.

Any possibility of just selling the engine? I am in dire need of one.
