You are bidding on a couple pieces of history that are hard to find in this shape. Your bid is for 1 1967 FJ45 LV Wagon and 1 1966 FJ45 LV Parts rig. I will describe these rigs thouroughly. The 67 is a great start for that rare custom or original restore. There are about 200 pictures of everything at www.fjtoys.com (I hide nothing there). Both come with clear and clean non salvage titles. I ONLY sell because I need the cash... otherwise I would never part with these... I sold the 1967 FJ45 LPB before I sold these.
Everything should be here for you to make a good decision on these rigs but if you have ANY questions please don't hesitate to ask!
The Driver (named Lefty)
Note: click the picture to see 200 more.
1967 (last year) FJ45 LV Landcruiser.
Runs and drives

Has 350 Chevy engine - mated to a 3 speed on the floor tranny - mated to a NP203 Transfer case
Body is solid but needs some random metal patch work (parts rig included)
Random holes in rockers (parts rig has perfect rockers)
comes with cracked windshield, all door glass and 1 rear quarter glass (for templates)
random rust in a/b/c/d pillars (parts rig has perfect roof for swap)

Rust above the visor in the roof on the driver side (parts rig has perfect roof)

Ribs are beautiful

I've had 4 of these... of 218 known to exist in the US. Out of 2000 that were shipped to the US through the 1963 to 1967 years. I sold 2 of them. 1 I sold for $2500 minus drive train, with no floors and bad rust in the roof. The other I sold for $4000 but the body was very pretty... minus the rust in the floors... and it was basically 2 axles bolted to a frame bolted to the body with all the body/engine parts in the interior of the rig.
I've cried tears when these rigs get loaded on the trucks to leave and I'm sure there will be more to come.
Lefty (the runner driver) lived in California when I acquired it. I belive it has been a california truck its whole life. The rust in the pillars is belived to stem from someone tarping the rig for years. It saved the floors, but the pillars either need some patch work or the roof off of Mudmonster. I believe a straight swap of roofs would be easiest. Then blast Mudmonsters's doors (rust free) and pop them on Lefty and call it a day. Lefty also has some rust in the rockers but its not too bad compared to the other LV's I've had. Again Mudmonsters rockers are perfect! Or simple steel panel welding and your done.
--------------------------------------------------------
Shipping - I've shipped 3 cruiser through www.timbukturx.com and they are BY FAR the cheapest around (tell Joyce I sent you). If you win, you get both rigs... but I can cut up Mudmonster and place inside Lefty if you wish. Of course the frame wont fit, but all the needed body panels (in pieces) will. Whatever you don't want from mudmonster will get relisted as parts on Ebay... i figure its fair since I took the time to cut up the pieces (as many as you want) and put as many as fit in Lefty. I will make myself available to be here when the truck gets here to give the keys to the shipper. Or just come pick them up. (lefty drives, but there is no windshield)
Payment - Cha-ching, yes I need money or again there'd be no way I'd sell this family wagon... payment is due in full within 3 days. I do take paypal.com but a cashiers check (or money orders) overnighted will work better (unless you don't mind paying the 2.3% that paypal takes)
Storage - I've got the room, Lefty's in the garage and Mudmonsters under a carport out back.... I can keep them there for up to 3 months till you get stuff worked out (sending you the titles). However Payment in full is needed within 3 days of auction close.
Again, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.... I'm sure you will really enjoy these rare jems!
