1975 Toyota Land Cruiser Description

Sold my garage so it's time to part with some of my favorites that I can't take with me!
No reserve auction!

Figures the same week I find a solid FJ40 to build I soon will have nowhere to build it so my loss is your gain. This one took me years to find and its not so easy to find solid examples of the FJ40, especially at a decent price! So here you go!
The pictures tell most of the story on this one, I can add that the floors are super solid and virtually rust free, the frame is the same. My guess is this was either stored inside much of the time or had a restoration years ago, at any rate the frame and underbody are as good as you'll find. The body itself is solid with some rust in the normal areas, doors are solid but have rust on the bottoms. Passenger door handle needs replacing.
Body has some rust, I've supersized the pictures so you can assess what is there tho I haven't seen too many rescued FJ40 in this good of shape
Interior is good, seats need some work but the floorboards are solid and again virtually rust free! Dash has some cracks, odometer shows 90K miles, 4 speed floor shift, top is solid, has barn doors on rear.
As for mechanicals, my guess is the LC was about to be restored and the previous owner was beginning to disassemble it when unfortunately they passed away. Carb is off and so is the distributor. Motor turns freely by hand with no real resistance. Only a guess but in my opinion and being a inline-6 cylinder Toyota motor that it will run.
Brakes have been completely bled so they will need attention but nobody is hiding the fact that this is a project vehicle!
I am glad to answer any questions, this was acquired from an estate and since this is a Georgia vehicle anything this old does not have a title so it will be sold with a bill of sale.
Again, sold with Bill of Sale only.
Great project vehicle to pass the Quarantine Time!
I do have the car for sale locally and there is a good chance that it won't make it all the way to auction's ed so call or text if you want direct answers, 912-677-8965
Thanks!
