You are looking at a 1972 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ-40. These are, y far, he most iconic production vehicle Toyota Motor Corporation has ever built. They changed little in the 29 years this model was made.This is one of the more desirable years for the FJ-Series. They have a removable top & doors & flip-down windshield for open-air driving fun, x4 go-anywhere capability, nd rugged good looks that are second-to-none! You canfind a whole array of aftermarket soft-top configurations, r even a factory FJ-45 hard-top pickup half-cab for this vehicle; making it a very versatile SUV, ickup, x4, onvertible combo! They feature an overhead valve inline 6 cylinder engine, ugged frame-on-body construction & solid front & rear axles with sealed-ball type u-joints so you can cross creeks & rivers without having to re-pack your wheel-bearings with grease.

One might not guess it from their relatively little size, ut these rigs are built really tough! Even with their short wheel-base, hey handle much better than CJ Jeeps on loose gravel roads & such and are not as squirrely in my experience. Land Cruisers have been used in Safari Expeditions all around the World for the past 60 years, nd have tried & true off-road capability! With 8 windows, here are really no blind-spots in these rigs. This one we have for sale remains mostly original, ut with a few modern upgrades.

This vehicleonly has 69,557 miles on it.This is a non power-steering model, ut has power brakes. The dash switches and levers are all still intact which is pretty uncommon for these vehicles. The engine was rebuilt and freshened up with Clifford 6=8 Performance Parts, xhaust headers, nd a modern high-energy ignition system for performance, uel-mileage & reliability. There are lots of new parts, uch as belts, oses, alve-cover, ir-cleaner, lternator, attery, attery cables, istributor, gnition box, ive Wires brand spark-plug wires, tarter, lectric fuel-pump etc. etc. The transmission shifts smoothly through all the gears just as it should. The four-wheel-drive transfer-case works flawlessly and there are lockout hubson the front axle (for free-wheeling when not in use to save on fuel). The brakes are in great shape, nd freshened up in the not too distant past. This vehicle doesn't drip fluids on the ground when parked, nd is neat as a pin under the hood.

The headliner is missing, nd will need to be replaced (if you care about such things)... otherwise some sound-deadening roll-on coating could be applied, nd call it "done". The seats were upholstered in sort of a burlap-type fabric which has scenes depicting outdoorsman type stuff like fishing and canoeing on it. It's not for everyone, ut something that the previous owner likely paid a lot of money to have done. I ALMOST got out the vinyl & carpet dye, nd just sprayed them all one color (beige, ray, r black)... but decided to leave them be in case the next owner is in love with it. The dash pad is in decent shape, ut has a couple spiderweb cracks in it.

So many FJ-40s have been altered with gas-sucking Chevy V8s & the like. This one has a few mods, ut remains mostly original & unmolested. We've priced it far cheaper than comparable other Land Cruisers on eBay. Despite being 43 years old, nd not a 100-point show vehicle... it's a very decent daily driver... a collectible, lassic 4x4 built with Toyota quality!

They have competently moved many classic cars around the country for me, ith careful track-records and are very competitively priced transporters.
