Got a new project today its a 74 fj55 got to fix a few things and will be selling it anyone have a idea what they are worth? It has some rust in the rear quarter areas and rockers and front fenders but I've got two that are clean. Rear power window works and also have extra glass for it too. I've never seen one before this one its a cool looking rig.

I've always wanted one of those. They're rare, but not particularly sought-after, so value is very much in the eye of the buyer. I've seen rusty but running ones go for next to nothing, and restored ones get just under $20k. Problem is, it costs a lot more than that to restore one. If it's driveable, I'd consider trading you a Samurai for it. I need a 4-door!
 
I'm rebuilding the carb doing a tune up and going threw the brakes New fluid etc it will be drivable soon would rather sell but you never know may would do some trading thats how I ended up with it to start with.
 
looks like my dad's old Iron Pig. Huge cool factor. Does that one have a foot forward winch mount? or is that a liscense plate bracket?

prices are all over the place.
 
I passed on a piggy a few years back. It was fairly rusted, fenders were flapping, but to this day I wish I had kept it. As a Yota guy, I think they are just plain cool.

The guys over at Iron Pig Offroad have a couple restored/built ones that see a lot of trail time. But being out west makes for a solid start for a build.
 
I like it to not sure if I want to sell it but I need too. It's just cool I've never seen one much less had the chance to own one but who knows we will see what happens.
 
I'm a Toyota guy but this is the one that I wouldn't own. Its the ugly duckling :lol: They are kinda cool though.
