I am starting flight school in November and unfortunately have made the decision to sell this beauty to cover some expenses.
I purchased her from the 2nd owner who had her for apparently thirty years. This 40 was his daily driver while he lived in a tiny mountain town in the northeast of Napa Valley CA. Occasionally making a few road trips to San Diego. I haven't had a chance to carfax to confirm, but they think they purchased it with 13k miles and enjoyed her ever since. They claim the seat covers have always been in the truck and as far as they know everything is completely original except at some point they resprayed the hood....and it definitely looks that way to me. Also has some cool old school coil -over shocks, but everything else is there. Tools, jack, handles, etc....this truck is a time capsule!! And yes, they are BFG 9.50 33 muds lol! ( if you know... you know) like I said.... time capsule.
I purchased her as an investment to enjoy and I have been using her daily and commuting to work. I have another 83 Bj40 and it's not even close to how great these late FJs run down the highway if that's even a concern.
As you can see from the pics, she's in great original condition. Not sure how many 83's are around with AC and PS that are rust free and unrestored, but this truck is a true gem.
Here are a bunch of pics, but please reach out if you are serious and need anything specific or have questions. I'm sure I will update things, or ad more pics..... but this is to get things started.
And yes, thank you in advance for any advice
