Based on Tims recommendation, I offered $17,094 for the cruiser, as well as $3,000 extra for shipping, and his troubles...Had to pull funds from my Nigerian bank account, but hoping for a positive reply.

Keeping my fingers crossed I land this jewel!

Why is it so impossible to find a respectable project FJ40? It seems like most are destroyed by rust or $17k.

mainly because they are "worth 38 bazillion dollars when restored!!!"

I'll be down in Phoenix next month if anyone wants me to take money to him and bring it home. FJ40 facilitation fee is only 10% of purchase price + fuel.

1972 Fj40 in Hayden: https://rockies.craigslist.org/cto/6005462120.html

I checked this one out: frame seems solid, runs rough (carb adjustment?), shifts okay thru all gears, transfer case works. Mostly unmolested - only non-OEM parts I spotted were an aftermarket-carb and wiring for a plow. Floorboards, rear sill, rear quarters all rusty.

Would be a reasonable candidate for an ambitious restoration.

Current owner friendly. Not sure where he is on price.

No kidding. NADA retail on that is 6400. How the hell does the guy get 17000?

I imagine that's what he has spent on it the last 13 years to keep it running.
