Stage Three 1965 FJ45 Short Bed With Removable Top

I SPOTTED THIS 1965 FJ45 SHORT BED WITH REMOVABLE TOP BACK IN THE 1990’S BEING DRIVEN BY AN OLDER COUPLE IN THE HILLS OF BEVERLY HILLS. I TRIED TO BUY IT THEN, AND THEY TURNED ME DOWN. MANY YEARS LATER THE TRUCK WAS OFFERED TO ME, AND WE JUMPED ON IT. IT WAS IN DECENT SHAPE AND HAD LEAD A MOSTLY SHELTERED LIFE.
