I bought a couple Patrols back in Feb 2017 with the plans of keeping the green 1967. They were in Kansas when I got them but I think they both came from Colorado. The other one is a red 1969 that last ran in 2014 and had a bad fuel pump. I have since sold the patrol after keeping a couple pieces off of it. The green 1967 was mostly complete but did not have the original dash and the engine was open with head and pistons removed. Not sure when it was taken apart, hopefully I will find something during the teardown that will point to a timeframe. I have also purchased 2 parts trucks to help in building. I bought a 1965 in Toledo that had a recently running 1967 engine. I also bought a 1963 in Nashville basically because it was there. Hopefully I have acquired enough parts to make one. My goal is to leave the body alone and only rebuild the drive train, but that was also the plan with my Land Cruiser and that turned out rather glossy!
