1978 FJ40 For Sale

[Ocho77]

This kills me. I just purchased this truck as my "forever FJ40" in September and, unfortunately, need to sell it. Here is a link to the previous for-sale ad on MUD.

SOLD - SoCal -1978 FJ40 - Rare Color - 653​

Since I've owned it I have used it as my daily driver and put about 2k miles on it. It is absolutely amazing and is everything Rob described in his ad. I have tons of pictures if you need them.

Unfortunately, I am leaving town on the 20th and returning around the 1st of January, but I wanted to post the ad. If interested, feel free to reach out. When I purchased the truck, I had it shipped in an enclosed trailer from California to Alabama, and it has been garaged my entire possession. I am asking what I have in it with shipping/taxes/registration. It is $27,500. I am happy to answer any questions.

If it does not sell here within a reasonable amount of time, I have submitted it to bring a trailer with the same reserve.

Give me a reason to drive this home to Michigan for delivery!!! Most of you know how to get a hold of me on my cell if you have questions.

Cheers,
Jonathan

What a bummer, but I don't think selling it will be difficult. If I hadn't already bought a tub for Olive, I would buy it from you!

Sorry to hear this @Ocho77!!! Looks great! Post it in the classifieds on Mud. Wider net than clubhouse. I would try FB marketplace also.

Darn, there'll be another one out there when you're ready again.

Great looking 40, I am sure it will go to a good home if someone on here buys it. I am also sure you can find another when the time is right.
