Location

United States

SOLD- Professional Frame Off Restoration, Concours Level Finished in Toyota Army Green- It will be marketed in a number of places and the price may fluctuate. Introduced at $75,000.

The FJ25 is the predecessor to the FJ40 and is very rare to find one fully restored. Owned by the same family since 1959, it was rescued from a coffee plantation and restored to it's new glory. Every part on this restoration is extremely rare. Full engine and running gear rebuild, everything. Like new.

This is merely one definition:

"Unless original, modifications are not allowed, and components must be suitable for the year and model of the automobile. Even components or features fitted to automobiles of the same type, but in a different production year or trim level, are not allowed." (Concours d'Elegance - Wikipedia)

Could you post a link to the definition that you are using, btuman, to characterize this vehicle as a "concours" level restoration, please?

I'd like to know what this word, concours, actually means.

Looks good to me! I'd raise a pint of cold, refreshing, Rocky Mountain con-COORS to that!

Having been to a number of Concours d' elegance Auctions over the years (RM, Gooding, Bonhams)- this definition seems accurate per the judging papers I saw. Is there something specific you have a question about- glad to do my best to answer.

Granted there are a few minor details where this vehicle would have points deducted in judging but could be entered and compete with others in it's class.

No specific questions. Thank you.

My error was taking the "not allowed" part of the definition literally. That's all.

Great truck! A few refinements and updates aside, it so cool how little these trucks changed in appearance over the 20+ years they were produced.
