1977 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. Professionally restored and ready for a new home.5 year frame-off restoration project; vehicle owner has moved on to other projects and put this one up for sale! It would be tough to build one of this quality at this price!
Starts/Runs/Drives/Stops. Simple and reliable.Use this as a daily driver or for 4x4 adventures and expeditions.
Great first car, last car, or extra car!
Body (tub) and all panels were media blasted to bare metal. All panels are RUST FREE. No sheet metal repair, filler or mud. The front cowl and frame/chassis/engine are 1977; (as evidenced by the front disc brakes and vented rear side windows, and the VIN) The back half of the tub is 72-74 FJ40; hence the better barn door/lift hatch configuration on the back.A complete 77 body would have the rattly 'ambulance' doors.
