1972 FJ40/FJ 40 Toyota Landcruiser
I am regrettably selling my 1972 FJ40 Toyota Landcruiser. There is nothing wrong with this truck outside of a few minor tasks that need to be completed to have this FJ fully put back together.
FYI – 1972 mean no smog needed!
Asking $28,500

I am selling it mainly due to the need for more space in the garage and unforeseen expenses. There are less than 300 miles on the odometer, but realistically the vehicle has around 300-500 miles on it since major rebuild.
This is a gorgeous resto mod that has been a work in progress from myself and the previous owner for the past 13 years. I have all records, paper work, and even pictures of the build while...

At the risk of being a PITA, wondering if you guys would take a look at this 78' and provide some thoughts about what looks good and what doesn't. I know these trucks decently well, but not in the way that many of you know them. This group spins circles around me on what's original, what's not, what to look out for, what to ask about, etc.
Here's the link to the dealer's listing: Used 1978 Toyota FJ40 for Sale in Salem OH 44460 JK's Galleria Of Vintage, Classic And Pristine Cars
I do not intent to pay their asking price. Price is still TBD.
Here's what I'm told by the dealer:
-They took the 40 in trade from a local collector (likely story).
-It was restored ~10 years ago. It's a restoration company that all of us on here would...
We have had this FJ for 1 year. Bought it in Hawaii, and shipped it here. I have been an FJ enthusiast on the US mainland for years and know the shortage of good quality FJ40's. I felt it was my duty to bring this one where it would be appreciated. Low mileage (80K), little rust (only surface), will need new exhaust and tires in the next 2 years.
So, here's the low-down:
When I bought, it already had...lift, tires, aftermarket front bumper, and spray bed-liner exterior.
Since I have had it, I have...replaced torn OEM seats with racing buckets, added a tasteful stereo, repaired a few odds and ends, brand new OEM clutch 1 month ago, currently at the shop in Orange getting brand new brake master and rebuilt brake booster, new air...

Reluctantly, I am having to sell on this awesome cruiser project as I have far too many other projects on the go as well as struggling to find the time for her with working full time!
Every part of this project needed to completely restore this cruiser comes with the vehicle. The panels, chassis, accessories have been glass blasted and epoxy primed to cure all rust. Some panels as well as the cab body will need pitting holes filled and some filler work if wanting to achieve that perfect restoration look.
BRAND NEW radiator, engine rebuild kit, body mounts, bump stops...
The start of the add: "1977 Toyota FJ40 body off the chassis restoration to "as it rolled off the assembly line". Everything on this vehicle has been gone through and restored, everything....."
Yea, right!...as it rolled off the assembly line! Less a few parts, perhaps? This Dude's been smoking that same Kali weed 1970TLC got into?

Selling my 77 FJ40. I also have a bunch of various spare parts (carbs, brake booster, turn signals, engine block, transmission, brake pads, rotors). You can email me and I can send pictures and I'll tell you everything I know about the FJ. I've owned it five years and done a lot of maintenance and upgrades (Old man Emu suspension, hard top seals, intake gasket, new carb, brake lines, new seat covers, A/C system, knuckles rebuilt, etc). $27,000.
You should be able to look at my various photo albums for pics of my rig so I won't post a bunch here. I will add some more recent photos to my album soon.

Not mine. Someone in Boise might get a good deal. Bidding starts 4/18, so you better go look at it.

Good morning y’all! New to the forum and trying to figure out what this thing is worth! Could somebody provide some pointers as to what are some of the more intricate things I should look for in this model, outside of rust etc.? How does it being JDM impact the price? What about being a diesel? What about the aftermarket aluminum tub?

Thanks y’all!

I bought this FJ40 2 years ago to work on as a project, but due to work and travel, it's collecting too much dust. Between my local mechanic and me, it's got a ton of new parts, and it's ready for someone else to take it to the next level.
Here is a list of the new parts and work completed:
New fuel pump
New spark plugs and wires
New air filter
New dual, side-exit exhaust
New rams horns exhaust manifolds

Looking for a 79-83 FJ40 in the olive green color. Any condition considered but restored preferred. Must be a US spec.
Hi Mudders. I purchased this 1973 FJ40 off here last year from a gent in TX. The plan has been to get it up and running, but life keeps kicking me in the nuts and I am throwing up the white flag of surrender. Plus, I have a Sprinter 4x4 conversion inbound and I need to recoup some of that expense.
When purchased last yr, I was told it ran, but "needed work" to the brakes and transmission. When it arrived on flat bed, I quickly realized it was over my head. It has a disc brake conversion up front, but there's no brake pressure or fluid in the system. Previous owner said they just needed bleeding to complete the swap.
This cruiser does start, but does not hold an idle. The previous owner felt it was a carb issue from sitting for 6+ yrs...
Looks pretty good for a thousand bucks, does it not? 1971 TOYOTA Land Cruiser
Looks promising ... Not mine
