Hi all looking for fj55 parts for my resto.
Mainly looking for body parts anything considered, from anywhere around NZ even Aussie if someone is watching.
There must be some 55 stuff lying around that could be used to get one on the road.
Can get parts from the States but is costing heaps in shipping.
Thanks Jason

Re: WTB Landcruiser FJ55 parts
fj55 body parts is a big ask mate there weren't many sold on the nz market and whatever is leftover would be pretty rusted out by now, I think horopito motors in the central north Island had one amongst their collection other than that finding a good fabricating resto panelbeater is probably your best bet 

Re: WTB Landcruiser FJ55 parts
FJ55s are about as rare as rocking horse sh*t. Good luck with finding parts as I've only seen one of these in person as a tidy restored example.They are definitely a collectors item when complete though.
Unfortunately they were prone to rust right from leaving the factory, so there aren't too many getting around these days.

Ha yeah parts are non existent. But you never know somebody might have a panel lying around in a garage. Or dead one in a paddock that can be scavenged. That's what I'm hoping for, thinking I'm going have to learn how to make my own. Should be fun.....

Hi all, sorry about the necro posting, but I'm also looking for some FJ55 bits'n'pieces
Wondering if by some amazing stroke of luck some parts magically appeared in someone's shed?
Cheers!
