The date when this video was made, as well as clear photos, would help determine if this was a "barn-find" or an example of poor dealer prep on delivery.
Several thoughts: we all know how to roll back the odometer and repaint the instrument needles.
There are some in the Middle East, especially in KSA, who run their vehicles with pre-delivery plastic sheeting and coverings and labels, perhaps as an indicator of "newness" or financial stature or as some way of retaining value to a future buyer.

The fuzzy photos show the rare rear bumperettes for the pickup truck, as well as mounting holes along the bed sides for the softop bed canvas. The notch for the spare tire crank in the lower rear valence indicates a 1983-1985 bed.
If a "new" find available today, would be interesting to own. If so, just hard to fathom why anyone would purchase a new vehicle and then store it away for nearly thirty years. Perhaps a rich sheikh?

Can you show us more photos and provide some details?

I didn't know the later models, or perhaps the middle east models had a vent window in the door.

I like the original tires. No longer made. I am surprised it didn't come with a floor mat.

Can you read the price on the tag ?

I do not know the exact date of this video seems to me that he has been captured by mobile phone .
regaring pre-delivery plastic i agree with you ,some young guys they like to keep the plastic but not for so long 25 years .
however on 2002 the bigest toyota dealer store was burn with almost 280 new land cruiser at that time and gone with wind (my brother new land cruiser too) and the old store which contain 98 new trucks FJs all 1984/1983 not been touched ,lately sold all in acution , I believe all new FJs comes from dealer store .
from 1979 up to 1984 when you purchase new FJ45 the dealer use to gave you two set of tires 05 tiers sand tires and another 05 tires stone tire .

here is another youtube clip about 1984 with A/C
