1979 TOYOTA FJ40 - Land Cruiser
This cruiser was restored over the past year to the original condition. (I have a full photo documented restoration from start to finish over 240 photos) I have bought, sold, restored Land Cruisers for the past 25 years and this is my latest off frame restoration. I am the third owner of this Cruiser; it has +/- 89,000 actual miles. The 1979 and newer FJ40 Land Cruisers are better, for they have 4 speed transmissions and 3.73 gearing (better for road use), the fuel cell is outside of body tub (earlier models fuel cell is under passenger seat inside body tub), they have front disc brakes to name a few. I have a clear VA title. Most of the original rear section of the body was rusty, so this Cruiser was restored with a ¾ aluminum body tub built by "Aqualu Industries" of Canada. (I have restored three previous Cruisers with this method. (No more body rust !!). BTW- this is my eighth FJ40 off frame restoration. Most everything restored and/or replaced with quality replacement parts with regard to authenticity.
Please see list below of most of the work that was done during the restoration process:
