I just came back from looking at another project FJ40.
It's a 68 with a 71 engine, really rusty, rolled a couple of times, glass broken ect.
It ran ,but not great, no gauges worked though. All the hydraulics are shot, no breaks or clutch, and rotten tires. Not a piece of it doesn't need attention.
And it's been painted with a brush over the rust. Windshield frame crushed.
It comes with a totally thrashed parts truck,no engine , tranny or transfer, but tons of rust !!
Anyway the seller wants $2200 for both !!
Neither has been registered and will have to pass vehicle inspection.
I asked him if he was negotiable but he said he's sure their worth $2200 and is not open to offers.
Am I wrong for thinking these rotten examples are only worth maybe $800-$1100 tops????
Or is this guy out of touch with reality?
I didn't bother to make an offer thinking I'd only insult him.
But I'm not paying $2200 for this junk.
------------------
75 FJ40, 4 inch BDS springs,inch body, 35's, detroit locker, power steering, disc brakes, 3spd low range gears, full cage, XD9000i, extended shackles, dual batteries....you get the idea.
