Beautiful Cruiser. I wish I’d known it was for sale. Nice photos with the Tucson mts in background. I lived there from 1975 - 2002.
I have a 77 FJ40 that I bought in Mesa AZ in 1993.
Hi. I also lived in Tucson for 18 years. I had a desert tan, 1977 FJ40 that looked similar to yours. At least the inside did. The outside looked whiter than the interior. Was it painted or different lighting.
I still have my 77 Cruiser.

I have a 1977 FJ40 with some rust above the windshield, on the...
Hi. I saw your YouTube video and was impressed with your work. Do you work on FJ40’s? Where are you located?
I have a 1977 FJ40 that’s been sitting and needs work. It has an old Chevy 305 but I really want to put in a Vortec mpi. Can you help with this, even if it’s just information?
Also, I...
Thanks. (Do I refer to you as 1911 or Chupacabra?).
Anyway, I have read the threads and still confused about what exact parts to get. There was so much discussion that I couldn’t tell what the final parts list was. I replied to the main comment, asking for clarification but it’s an old thread...
Hi. I enjoyed reading this thread. I want to upgrade the front discs on my 77 FJ40.
