At this phase of life, I have decided to reduce my Landcruisers from 3 to 1 due to lack of time and just not using them enough to justify keeping them. The first one I’ve decided to sell is my 1964 FST. Only listing here for a week as I would like this to stay in the mud community, then will move to other platforms.
$25.8k firm on price to save the back and forth. I have the title in hand.
The truck was fully rotisserie restored, including engine rebuild around 11 years ago.
This truck’s restoration is fully documented over 164 pages here on mud - destins 1964 fj40 FST restore thread - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/destins-1964-fj40-fst-restore-thread.297786/
I purchased the truck directly from Destin around 5 years ago as I loved following the restoration process and shipped it to the Atlanta area. Since then, it has mostly been sitting in my garage. I think I’ve put on less than 200 miles.
Truck runs and stops very well. Cosmetically, the truck is very nice, but keep in mind this is an 11-year-old restoration where the PO did use this truck regularly so it’s not perfect. Hopefully the flaws are captured in the photos and videos, for instance the paint is thin on the fenders and hood.
Work that’s been performed since owning:
I welcome and encourage a professional inspection of the truck. Would prefer a face-to-face transaction so the buyer can look the truck over and see what they are purchasing. Truck is sold as is with no implied warranty.

Work that’s been performed since owning:
- Brakes fully rebuilt with new cylinders, shoes, and master cylinder – I paid a Landcruiser shop to do this work
- Soft top re-done with new windows and D-rings and straps. I paid a shop to do this, and the work was just ok. The soft-top itself is very high quality. I have a trollhole top (which I love) on another truck and the quality of this top is superior. Top is older and not perfect but very nice
- Stainless steel hubcaps
- New fuel line from tank to fuel filter. New fuel filter and housing
- Newer battery
- Rebuilt original starter
- Items I’ve tracked down over time; rearview mirror, horns and brackets, tailgate chain, misc items like missing bolts, stoppers on jump seats, etc
- Horns do not work – horns and brackets were missing when I purchased, I tracked them down and installed. Believe the issue is wiring from the steering column.
- 4-wheel drive – cable is disconnected – I haven’t investigated it. Transfer case shifts fine.
- Left windshield wiper acts a little erratic – I believe it’s a ground issue, but have it disconnected
- Cosmetic issues; thinning paint on fenders and hood, interior worn paint, mild cracking on passenger seat leather
- Aftermarket heater is not connected - please see pics for how coolant hoses are routed
- Missing one soft door plexiglass part that holds up plexiglass
- Oil pressure gauge not working
