1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 in Sky Blue

This is the FJ40 you have been waiting for! Only 107,424 original miles with2F series engine and four speed manual transmission and is mostly stock except for the front bumper and winch (which is pretty cool looking). I believe am the third owner and have owned the FJ40 for approximately six years. I have invested over $4,000 in the truck since my purchase. Hagerty Classic Vehicle Valuation Tool values this vehicle at $11,500 in #4 (Fair) condition. Here is the good news- runs very well, mechanically sound, very clean interior, has numerous new parts, beautiful dashboard (no holes) and has rear jump seats with new seat belts, roll bar, front headrests, factory AM radio, rear heater, and she just passed DMV inspection with a fresh oil change. I don’t know if it’s the color but this FJ40 is the ultimate conversation starter. You will not be able to drive around for very long without someone stopping you and asking you about the FJ40.

Here is where the truck needs some work- needs bodywork or new tub, one fender, headliner, door skins, paint and engine leaks a little oil. Frame is solid with typical surface rust and four wheel drive works. Additionally, I have over $2,000 of brand new restoration and mechanical parts which will be included in the sale and detailed below. I started working on my FJ40 several years ago and initially focused on the mechanical side by replacing the following:

• Distributor/plugs

• Radiator/thermostat

• Fan belt

• Front Tie Rods

• All shocks

• Front and rear brake pads

• Installed a Weber carburetor (I have the original 2F carb and all smog related equipment)

• New battery

• New clutch

• New exterior mirrors

• New rear view mirror

• New rear taillights/turn signals

I have another project truck I’m working on and can’t handle two at a time so the FJ has to go. I would love to see my FJ40 go to someone with the passion to finish the job. I’m an active EBay buyer but not seller and believe that my description and photos accurately depict the condition of the truck. I’m happy to provide more photos or answer any questions you may have. Clean New York State title (lien free) in hand. Initial deposit of $500 required and full payment within seven (7) days of the conclusion of the listing by certified/bank check or wire. Local pick up only and no shipping provided but I’m happy to assist your transport hauler.
