As much as I hate to say it...thanks Nolen

I found an old thread about a 1967 FJ45 LWB that was for sale locally. The rigs is on pretty good shape....the original hard top has somehow disappeared, it has a crappy rochester carb and electric fuel pump, a bent fender, and the air cleaner has somehow disappeared as well. The wiring...well I may have to start fresh. However, the rig is amazingly rust free:

Needs some interior work...anyone got a hardtop in their backyard???

mudtoy67 · 07-19-2009, 07:19 PM

Nice!

Killerpee · 07-19-2009, 07:19 PM

Yes...I do believe Ray Charles did the wiring under the hood

I also believe the radiator should be an ad for JB Weld:

If you have them stashed in a box, gathering dust in the corner, I need:

Horns
LF Fender
Hardtop

(how the hell do you lose one of those???)
Wiper motors
Carburetor and air cleaner....vintage not that important
manual fuel pump for a 2F (does that make me a purist???)
radiator...no jb weld pleeze
stock front bumper
LQ9/4l60e....just kidding

rockthedog · 07-19-2009, 08:34 PM

nice rig..... that radiator is awesome

wngrog · 07-19-2009, 08:39 PM

So glad you got it. I think it was a steal.

texican · 07-20-2009, 05:18 AM

............I would have got that but I will never finish my projects as it is..........you forgot doors, I bet you could build a top out of 40 hardtops........I have a pair of red doors, not sure of fitment, there is something about the top frame on the old ones that is different, according to the 'sperts

JasonH · 07-20-2009, 11:12 AM

Sweet. I'm glad someone finally bought that. I need to come over sometime and check it out.

matzell · 07-21-2009, 08:01 AM

Please do not tell me that was sitting in my backyard (VA) and I did not know about it. Looks solid!

Thanks for putting my name on those doors Butch! I had a hardtop lined up through Specter, believe it or not, but that deal appears to be falling apart

Long Story and I hope we can work it out.

Hell Yeah, come on by. The 45 is currently living in Pilot Point until I can find a radiator and replace some hoses.

Nope. It was a VA truck several years ago but it got to Texas as soon as it could

Does anyone have a decent 40/45 radiator stashed???
Does anyone have even the slightest lead on a Hardtop?
