Vehicle Description

1973 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40

Runs and drives excellent, has been a daily driver, kept in garage when not driven. I have had most of it restored over the last 5 years, however due to recent layoff I am forced to sell our fun truck. Starts on first turn of the key, has many upgrades; power disc brakes, power steering, V8 powertrain conversion, and more below.

Includes original steel doors which were in excellent condition but were painted with truck along with new rubber - they look new. Also included is a new bikini top, a rubber cargo area mat, original rear seats, and the original steel hard top (which was not restored). Please see details below.

Powertrain: Previous owner had this FJ for most of its life, and includes years of receipts, including a professional powertrain conversion done in the early 90’s. Chevy 350 engine with low miles, TH350 (GM) Automatic Transmission - shifts smooth and was recently serviced, Mild shift kit, New Process (GM) 205 Transfer Case. Edelbrock Manifold with Holley 4 bbl Warrior Carburetor. Truck runs excellent and sounds great. Unlike a stock FJ40, this truck has power and motors easily over hills and mountains, runs great on freeway or on the trails.

Brakes: Power brakes, front brakes were converted to disc brakes. Serviced a few years ago, pads/disc all in good condition.

Suspension: 31 Yokohama tires are a couple years old, a lot of tread and life on them. Original rims. 2” Ironman leaf springs in front, original leaf springs in back. Rides nice however before I was laid off I bought the matching rear 2” Ironman leaf springs for rear, and can be included if new owner wants to have them installed.

Body: Several years ago I had the body sanded down and repainted the original color Rustic Green. Shop did a decent job. Had all rubber replaced. Also had some rust spots fixed. Its not perfect, and not a show truck, but looks great and gets compliments everywhere we go.

Doors: Doors go on easily, slide over the hinges and drop the hinge pin in, thats it. Doors were sanded, repainted original color, and have new rubber.

Original Top: The top is included and in decent condition, however it was not restored - please see last 5 pictures. The previous owner had the FJ under a tree for 15 years with the top on. The top will need a common issue resolved before it is sound again, and that is the rain gutter got rusty. The ceiling part of the top on all FJ40’s is fiberglass, and Toyota originally riveted a steel rain gutter to it around the top. There are now aluminum gutters available, and this one needs rain gutter replaced and then put back together. While the top will fit on easily, I do not recommend putting it on until it has been restored, it does not hold against rain and will leak on the inside. This is something many shops familiar with FJ’s know how to fix.

Rear Seats: Also included are the original rear ambulance seats. They were not restored however in good condition.

Interior: Original front seats in good condition, I keep covers on them. Instruments all work, has stock A/C and compressor, however is not hooked up or working. Stock roll bar.

Fuel tank and fuel lines recently replaced. Setup for dual tanks however the rear tank was removed by previous owner, front tank is new.

Stereo: Original Toyota radio is in the dash, and a custom stereo console was made for a more up to date deck with blue tooth, USB, remote, etc.

Please email any questions or if you would like to see it. Thank you.
