Wanted: The best FJ40 I can get for around 3K

Location

United States

As the title says I want to find the best FJ-40 I can get for around 3K. Send me a good description of your truck and some detailed pictures of the bad parts and everything else to lunyou@gmail.com

LOCATION: Central MO(will travel)

PRICE(in case you missed it on the second line) $3,000ish.

If you have a project you want to offer email me about it also although due to time/space/wife constraints I will have to be more picky about the projects.

Thanks

Call Caravan Campers in Reno NV. They have their original 40 for sale. To my knowledge its a one owner truck and clean. Your price is not that high from their advertised price.



I'm not affiliated with them or the cruiser.

 

[lunyou]

hey thanks for the tip....what is their advertised price if you can remember?

Thanks

Do you want a stocker or a modified one with a v-8?

 

[D'Animal]

Any particular year?

 

[tntoyota]

Any particular trim package?

 

[lunyou]

i am not to particular, since I don't think I can be for $3,000.

But since you are asking...

KellyO - I would rather have one with the Toyota 2F or F but a V8 that is a good swap(no cooling problems etc) is probably an option, my wife would really like it if it also had an auto tranny in it :rolleyes

Danimal - If I had to narrow down to a year or two I would say as new as possible somewhere in the 80's would be ideal but realistically I haven't found one that new for a while close to my price range..........I also have a wierd fasination with the old ones too........especially those with the accordian rear hatch windows.

TnToyota - Trim level? I wasn't aware that the 40s had different trim levels.

I guess I should have been more descriptive in my first post..........I had a long one typed out but figured everyone would quit reading and then say, "To much work, next thread please"

I called caravan camper and the truck is gone. Thanks for the tip though.

Are you still wanting to look at mine??

 

[D'Animal]

1976 was the first year of the 2F and front disc brakes.

Do you have any smog requirements in MO to contend with?

 

[lunyou]

Btcruiser - right now yours is out of my price range.......nice truck nonetheless, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.

D'animal - thanks for the tidbit on the brakes and 2f info........I guess that is around the year I should be looking for and there aren't any smog requirements here in my part of MO........there are requirements should I move to St. Louis but I am not planning that any time soon.
