Original Dune Beige FJ40 In Great Condition 3" Lift 33" BFG A/T Power Steering

1977 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. Original Dune Beige color. 3" Lift 33" BFG A/T. Power Steering. The tires are brand new (all 5, ncluding spare) and the rims and hubs are in absolutely brand new, erfect condition.

I purchased this FJ40 on eBay (item number 252060682370). It arrived exactly as pictured and described. Please review in detail the original listing and the 70+ pictures. http://www.ebay.com/itm/252060682370?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I have verified all mechanically is in fine working/driving order and I made several cosmetic improvements including: OEM front seats, efinishing the jump seats, new front and rear seatbelts, nterior floor insulation, ight refinish and repaint of interior front and rear floor, ll new OEM interior door handles, ll interior and exterior lighting has been replaced with OEM where needed and every interior and exterior light works, nd correct original FJ40 pewter color replacement for several exterior components including the rear gas tank holders, icense dome covers and OEM pewter wiper blades. The AM/FM cassette works fine aside from the antenna not being connected and hence no AM reception. I do have a new OEM antenna that will be included for the buyer to have installed. I also took out the front heater/blower and cleaned it up it is in great working condition and functions exactly as it should. I also have a reprinted original owners manual that will also be included.

I am an absolute car clean fanatic and partial to keeping everything as original as can be, nd at this point I am proud to show and drive this FJ40. The reason I am offering it for sale is that although the power steering really helps,it is still less of an everyday driver than I thought it would be, s I am learning are FJ40's in general. I make many stops and starts between two job locations and kids pick up and drop offs, tc....and with any 40year old car, o matter how nice of running condition, t can not be expected to operate as a newer model. Additionally, he 3" lift, hile fairly discreteand great looking, efinitely delivers a stiff ride. Thelift was very welldone, o good in fact that I must point out it would bedifficult to reverse. Please keep this in mind when considering this purchase. I always had wanted one, tried it out and determined it is not going work for me, ut now with it cleaned up and original enough and confirmed strong running, or someone really looking for this particular vehicle, ho knows what they are all about, am confident in saying that this is as great of a presentable/driver one you will find.

What this FJ40 is: Absolutely beautiful looking exterior (turns heads exactly as the first picture in this listing does). The interior is as clean as possible. The engine and mechanics are in strong running condition as far as I have experienced. It is as fine and nice looking and good driving of an essentially "unrestored" example as is for sale.

What this FJ40 is not: It is not a frame off/new enginerestoration. There are some paint bubbles on the exterior (under rear Toyota emblem, nder rear spare gas tank cover, nder main gas tank cover, n passenger front fender) and the interior floor is not perfectly repainted. Make sure and view the last picture in this listing with multiple shots of what I am describing here. The white roof is in great shape and looks fabulous as a contrast to the body color. It does have a few scrapes on the back top from what looks like pulling into a little too low clearance (it fits into 7' or higher clearance garages just fine).

Although I do not feel it warranted and would not bother with any exterior or interior repaint as there is nothing structurally compromised as far as I can tell, nd I would just leave as a beautiful looking driver. But out of anything that you may potentially want to do the paint would be it. In fact, uite honestly, he interior and exterior paint is about the only thing I can think of that you may want to do. That is not to say it is perfect by any means (the front seats for instance, hile they look great, re 40 years old with stretch and some stitching coming undone, tc. they are not perfect, s many other inside parts while clean, re not "new" condition). So I will say again, hile this is beautiful looking, lean and strong running, his is not a 100% restored FJ40.

As you can tell from the overall tone and information I have provided in this listing, am an extremely honest person. I have 100% positive feedback over 600 transactions, hich for a normal eBay seller (not a store) to not have had one issue with feedback is nearly unheard of. I guarantee that if you thoroughly read this listing and review all of the pictures from this listing as well as the original listing, s listed is exactly what you will receive.

I would prefer this car be sold only after you view it in person, nd the buyer can arrange to take it from there. However, will consider selling it sight unseen upon having a conversation with the buyer to fully arrange shipping. Please note, will guarantee this will be put on a shipper exactly as it is pictured and running exactly as described, owever, can not have any responsibility once put on a shipper. So again, f there is anyway for you to view in person, strongly encourage it, therwise, lease be comfortable in taking responsibility from there.

In closing, he pictures, articularly in the original listing are very detailed, nd combined with the pictures in this listing of the updates I have made, hese pictures show you exactly what you are getting. In terms of mechanical, gain, personally can provide you with a 1 month history of not having any mechanical (engine) issues whatsoever. Cold and undriven for days, ith full choke and 2 pumps of gas, his FJ has always started up for me every single time on 1 crank. Do expect normal 40 year old car "warm up" time, nd when partially warm sometimes a few cranks are required, ut from there it runs and idles perfectly. In all, hisis as nice overall FJ40 as you will find for sale at this price range, ut I do encourage the buyer to please scour autotrader classics, agerty, nd the auction sites (Barret Jackson, ecum, uctions America) and even other eBay listings like this one: (eBay item: 281820155164)http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-Land-Cruiser-Base-Sport-Utility-2-Door-/281820155164?forcerrptr=true&hash=item419dca4d1c&item=281820155164etc...to be sure this is a comfortable price.

Please feel free to ask any questions, nd one more time, s I have pointed out many, any times in this listing, lease understand that this is not 100% restored. What is pictured is what that buyer will receive and from there the sale is final.

Thanks for looking and good luck finding the perfect FJ40 for you. Brian
