This FJ40 has been in my family for almost 18 years. It was my first vehicle, as with most things it was put on a back burner. It hasn't been licensed in I don't know how many years either. Was driven periodically for a few years then sat in a barn for 8 years didn't move. Shortly before my dad passed last year the property where it was stored was sold. Mom said it had to go from her house. I had hoped to finish it and get it back on the road but I literally work 70+ hours a week. 77,200 miles. It will start right up and can be driven onto a trailer. The front knuckles need rebuilt, and probably axle seals. Brakes need completely gone through. Think there is valve cover leak off the back side(potentially head gasket. Drivetrain it is all original except for some old OME shocks and steering stabilizer. The tub would need replaced as you can see in the pictures if you want to actually restore it correctly. There was some sheet metal replaced in the interior panels-this pre-dated all the currently available aftermarket reproduction panels you can get today. There is some extensive, rock hard fiberglass work with metal reinforcement done in the drivers seating area. As I said, TUB needs replaced! The hard top is from a 1978, it needs refinished/restored also. The doors are all in pretty sore shape. Comes with a never installed bestop super top with two piece doors. I still have the cross bows and most of most of the parts to install the soft top, but the actual two piece door hardware would have to be purchased again from bestop, it was long since lost shuffling around from where ever the FJ40 was being stored at the time. Comes with a old school Landcruiser Advanced Handling shackle reversal kit with matching lift rear shackles. Have factory rear license plate mounting assembly, and most emblems, however the guy who owned it before(who painted it sh!t brown) painted right over all of them. Definitely pretty rough condition overall. Comes with the cj7 seat that is shown in some of the pictures. Also have tailgate panel from Spector off-road I believe from years ago. If I had the means to finish it quickly I would, that said moving every year or two because of the military, I simply don't have resources or time. Could maybe deliver some where in the state of Missouri, but not until transaction was complete.
Asking $2500.00 negotiable, send me a pm if you think I'm on crack for the asking price. Willing to negotiate.
