SOLD TX: 1963 FJ45 SWB

Year

1963

Vehicle Model

1. 45 Series

Location

Dallas, Texas United States

Selling my 1963 FJ45 SWB. Planned to do a full resto mod but am considering moving on to a different platform. Originally from a drier region of OR and it is in good shape for its age. The motor is locked up, rest of the drivetrain is in good condition, it’s also got a front/rear output pto. Fairly straight and rust free except for one bed support that will need to be repaired. The roof cap was dented in one corner a long time ago, I had an experienced body guy put a few hours of work into it. He took it most of the way and built a new gutter flange for it. I was planning on doing the rest myself. I have been slowly collecting parts for it, everything included is pictured in the bed below. PM me for any questions.

Asking 13.5k

Is it just primer over the original red paint? The body looks to be in great shape! Early year ‘63 model with some rare parts included. This should sell quickly. GLWS!

As far as I can tell yes. You can see the red exposed on every panel of the truck.

I was trying to buy it when it came up forsale. I fell in love but just didnt have the means at the time to make it happen logistically its such cool story with such a cool history. Love it!!! So happy it made it back to the main land. At the time I thought it may rust away out there.

Yea it was quite the hassle to ship from Anchorage. I found the ad for it. Pretty sure everyone assumed it was rusted because it was under a few feet of snow but I saw the galvanized axles and frame in the sale ad.
