Your FJ40's Birthday???

[Dirt Dauber Matt]

Matt, sorry to bug you again … mine must have gotten lost in the mix. Could you take a look, please?

Hey @coondawg!

Looks like your 40s birthday was most likely Monday, December 20th, 1971. Looks like you have a B-Day celebration coming soon!

Matt... your work is much appreciated! Happy Thanksgiving. Care to try "FJ40-222290" I think I need to organize a 50th birthday party sometime in April next year.

Thanks Much

Andy

This is a great thread! Thanks for taking the time to set this up. I have a July 1976, VIN FJ40-227940. I'll plan a party if you can tell me what day?
I think it came form Kansas City area and moved to Maine. Sat in someone's garage for 10+ years before I bought it in 2020. Daily driver in the non=salted road months since 2022.
i bought it disassembled. This is what it looked like when I got it home and "reassembled" it.

Based on the available information, the closest estimate I can provide is that it was assembled around August 1963. Although it was likely designated as a 1964 model, its most likely assembly took place in August of 1963.

Thanks for looking into it - much appreciated. One thing we can all agree on is that it’s an old one! And it’s a lot of fun on the restoration journey.

Your 40 most likely rolled off the assembly line on Wednesday, December 22, 1971, and was probably titled as a 1972 model.

I had calculated March 30, 1966; oddly enough that is my X wife's birthday too. A wise man once said, "If it has tits or wheels it will give you trouble."
