I got it from the west coast and it was never on the beach that's why no rust . I use to live about 12 mi from Pismo beach and I seen first hand what salt does to every thing it comes in contact with not a pretty site. Thanks for looking buck.

A friend of mine has an old FJ like that. His is a diesel RHD that he imported from NZ or something. It sounds like a tractor. :lol: Get AAA, they handle DMV services there and it's well worth the money.

I too luv toejoes allways nice to know where to get parts thanks . Got mine tagged today ' it's old so I put antique plates on it . It will be so nice not to have to get it safety inspected every year . I did get the winch running smooth today so that's one less thing to worry about of wheeling.

Got it ' it was put in the same time the clutch and the 4 SPD was installed.
It's got the big six in it with a Holley carb , intake , header , coated exhaust and HP muffler . I got a few more things to do to it but it's all about money . So I started saving my penny's again .

Stretch the wheelbase to 100". Blah blah blah....:laugh: I wheel my fj60 for now till I get it done someday.ut:
