Whats the value of my 1976 FJ40 ? (1 Viewer)

[jdob0]

I don't see myself having the time or the money to take this project on in the near future. I hate to sell it , but it is taking up valuable space. I have not heard it run but it might with a little effort.
What do you guys think its worth ?

It appears to be pretty much unmolested, but has hugh rust issues. Maybe 2500.00?

2 years ago, after years of casual internet browsing, I paid $8k for a running '76 in central KS. It wasn't a steal by any means, but it was fair for what the market in the midwest seemed to be. The rust does look like it could be pretty extensive, although the rear tub of mine is shot too. Some of the sought after items yours has that mine did not are original seats front and back, original roll bar, doors & hard top, what looks like a fairly untouched engine bay, rear step, stock steering wheel, a mostly unmolested dash/heaters, and un-cut rear fenders.

If the frame's not rotten and you could get it running I'd wager you're more in the $6-8k range. Around these parts anyway A lot of people like the '76-78 years.

Thanks for the info

Well running with rust on body is more valuable than less rust and non-running

I was excited to see this one brought back to life. Hopefully it will stay in the ih8mud family.

I'm pretty sure you have that backwards.

Parts may be worth more than the whole but I’d say don’t part out and sell whole to someone who can bring it back from the grave.

I'm not gonna part it out. I'll keep it before I part it out.

But the next guy will

I'd say about $5K. Depends on how/if it runs. Seats look great, though. I'd buy them if they were up for sale locally.

What did you give for it? I’d say that’s what it’s worth.

@jdob0 Have you tried to get it running?

Not yet. Might try in a couple weeks when I have some time.
