For Sale '77 FJ40 in AZ

Runs great with a new carb rebuild, but needs springs (left rear) and a straighter steering rod (operable). This was a ranger vehicle in CO, was painted forest green with a solid tan hard top for that.

The only changes from stock are armored brackets around the front turn signals (I'll miss those), a larger front bumper (nearly covers the span of the truck), and 31" tires (BFG ATs and a ProComp).

This 40 handled a 7-rated trail (to the coke ovens at Florence, AZ) on my first off-roading trip. It has very little rust, and has a new set of gears up front.

It'll hurt to let it go, but I need something bigger. I'm asking $5,000.

Now asking $4000.

is the grab bar just held on with double sided tape ??? dont see any screws in the pic holding it on...

 

[J Duart]

The bar is missing that bolt, but has the other three. I had to remove it to get the to the dash for cleaning (air duct). Afterwards, I couldn't reach that bolt, and it dropped. I'll ask my mechanic to finish it.

This 40 is in Mesa, AZ. I'll have close-ups of the worst rust soon.

Yeah, I will do that. I drove it home yesterday and plan to start dismantling it this weekend. As of now I intend to mainly restore the truck along with some mild upgrades (OME 2.5" lift, 33" tires, custom bumpers, custom rock sliders, custom skid plates, etc). I will start a thread after this weekend's work.
