Holy Cow...my Pig is for sale, 72 FJ55

Location

United States

Well as they say, the barn is full and the project is done. Check out my FJ55 on craigslist:

1972 Toyota Land Cruiser (FJ55)


Over $25K invested in two year, frame-off restoration. Selling to buy FJ Cruiser daily driver. Asking $8500 (read below). If you are serious to buy, I am serious to sell. Please only contact me if you have legitimate interest.

And because all of you here on MUD have been so good to me throughout the process, I will take $7500 cash from a MUD member. Not desperate to sell and won't give it away (as if 7500 is not considered giving away)...if you are looking for a quality 55 that has been almost entirely gone through, this is it. -Stu

is that an F motor with a 3 speed or a 4 speed?

 

[sturobertson40]

3spd, original F motor. Email me if you have any more questions: sturobertson40@hotmail.com

Not on MUD all day. Thanks, Stu

Does it have A/C?
Power steering?
Any known issues that need attention to the body or mechanical?

 

[sturobertson40]

NO A/C OR POWER STEERING. STOCK for 1972. Slow leak from transmission output shaft seal (nothing gushing out, haven't needed to refill fluid), squeaky alternator belt, starter w/ dead spots (needs replacement, under warranty, but they won't replace until it dies completely) - have used for a year w/ no problems. That's it though...pretty perfect truck. My wife and I are adopting two children...so priorities are shifting. Let me know if you have any more questions.

SALE PENDING!

NOW WHERE DO I LOOK FOR A GOOD USED FJ CRUISER? Is there an FJC classifieds section?

Is this the one that got picked up yesterday?

I was cruising south down I-95 and saw an 80 pulling a 55 a mile away. I spent a week wheeling up a Coal Miner Cruiser Classic and hiking around...

I was in a powder blue 1982 Mini Truck doing about 80mph in the other direction if you saw me. I think I saw 55/80 in North Carolina around noonish....

 

[deadlew]

Yep, that was me going norht on 95. I'll take good care of it. No really big plans for it besides ejoying it. Maybe disc brakes and a ring and pinion change.

Paul...glad you got her home safe! I knew someone from MUD would comment on your rig driving North! I'll send you pics of my FJC once I get it back from the paint shop. Busy customizing it already. Going to be Freeborn Red! I'll miss my beautiful PIG though...have so much fun with it. AND THINK OF ME DOWN THE ROAD IF YOU EVER SELL IT FOR SOMETHING ELSE. -Stu

Stuart,

Got a Aussie 4 spd on the way for it. Had to keep it Toyota. Also need to swap the built front end out of my 40 into it.
