Background

Welcome to the opportunity to purchase a truly rare and unique vehicle. This 1972 Toyota Land Cruiser will last forever. You will get more looks in this FJ40 compared to any Lamborghini or Ferrari. Toyota Land Cruisers have been around forever and there is a reason for that, their style and quality cannot be beat. This FJ has been to Mexico and back. It also has been used in a photoshoot with Kelly Slater. Ellen Degeneres offered to buy it in Santa Barbara. This FJ has seen a lot but now it's your turn to take this masterpiece and enjoy it for the rest of your life.

Body and Interior



The body, frame, chassis, and rails are straight and solid. It's a very reliable easy to maintain truck that's gets you anywhere you need. The whole exterior has a beautiful red patina on it and has seen most of the world. The paint adds character to the car making it look period correct. The interior is very original. No rips or tears!

Engine and Transmission



This Toyota Land Cruiser is powered by its original 3.8L inline six cylinder engine. Currently the car starts right up and runs but water is mixing with the oil which will cause it to overheat if driven for a certain extent. The whole head has been gone through. It has a manual transmission and is in excellent condition.



Wear and Tear



To my knowledge the car has spent its life in sunny California. The FJ has original paint with patina that cant be replicated. It has seen many miles throughout its life but still has many more to come. The brakes don't work the best so the vehicle should be towed. As far as rust, there is some in your typical FJ locations such as the back panels but no holes or cancer in the floors which is very rare.

Title and Registration



I have a clean California title (rainbow pink slip) and registration is current. It's a very original FJ unlike others on the market. This FJ runs but will need some work to pursue the adventures you have dreamed of. It is fun to drive and ready to enjoy as-is. It has loads of character that's hard to duplicate.



I have represented this vehicle to the best of its ability. The FJ is being sold as is. No warranty apply implied or expressed.

IMHO it's a decent project FJ40, a very good base to build from. If I lived closer I'd likely call and then check it out myself. Not really interested in driving to Santa Barbara though.

Don't be discouraged by those who choose to trash your listing where they haven't taken the time to call or physically look at the rig. I do expect those rants on Pirate but not here.

I think there is healthy skepticism from members of this community who see a one-post member using our boards as a Craigslist 2.
