Seems like every vintage car I see these days claims to be RARE but few of them are. It's important to be aware that there were millions of Land Cruisers produced and shipped world wide but none of them meet the standard set forth in the USA except the trucks Toyota built and shipped to the US market. This"two owner" USA Spec FJ40 is one of the three hundred imported to the USA. 1983was the FINAL YEAR the FJ40 was available in the United States. Of those 300, about 50 had factory power steering and air conditioning.She deserves the moniker "RARE"
