Restored/Improved 1977 FJ40 - SOLD.
Reluctant though I am to do it, my 40 needs to go. New baby and slow economy means that toys sacrifice for the greater good.
details are:
1977 numbers matching Fj40. Non-catalyst so no emissions testing.
Toyota Yellow (mustard)
Current VA inspection good until 8/2009
Runs great, no problem with traffic or highway. Cruises easily at 75 (or
more if you want.)
Power Steering (FJ60)
4 spd
2F
2.5" OME Dakar lift
33"x9.5" BFG AT's (5) great tread on factory rims.
4.11's, open
Front discs, rear drums. All in working order.
Full frame off 2 year resto by Iron Pig 3 years ago. 10K miles on it since
then.
Everything was replaced or gone through save for the trans and case, which
were deemed fine at he time and remain so. Seal between the 2 is broken but
I have the seal, gasket, and another case if needed. So far, it's fine.
All receipts
In the three years it's received:
New rear quarters, new wheel wells (diamond plate steel)
NEw rear sill, 1/4 wall tube, 1/8" wall square tube rear uprights. these will not deteriorate.
New 2 stage paint - fair condition. Needs attention. I'm having a painter look at repairing it next week - Seams need resealed. see pics. (price goes back up when it's fixed though. If you're a painter, get it at a discount.)
Engine was gone through thoroughly. new top end, rings and bearings
New head, decked .050, new valves, seats, springs, and retainers.
Jim C. Carb, tuned by him. new jets.
2 piece headers.
Electronic ignition (stock, from a 78)
New cam gear, crank gear lifters and pushrods
New front main seal.
New brake master, booster, clutch master, and slave
New clutch
FULL Stainless steel exhaust.
All Stainless brake lines
Headlight buckets, bezel and grille were powder coated.
Seats were brand new at time, and are aftermarket. Really nice.
Tuffy security console with Sony CD head unit and MP3 line out.
Full carpet kit.
Factory Hard top with new headliner, doors
new Kayline soft top with full
doors (just purchased this summer for $1100) All in perfect as new
condition.
Rear jumps seats
Combo hitch pintle/ball (goes with it if you buy the trailer, too)
This is a really nice truck - drive it anywhere. People ask me all the time
if it's new - it really does look it.
Other parts we can work into the deal or that I will sell separately:
New Heritage front fenders (I'm picky, the ones on it are new but they seem,
I don't know, different. Everyone says I'm nuts. Anyway, I bought the
heritage ones form lance and have yet to install or paint them)
Spare T-case, because I didn't replace it. Rebuild kit and all seals to go
with it.
Factory rubber floor mats
2.5 pinnacle lift and shocks - SOLD, being shipped.
Flip and fold rear seat - never used - brand new. Not installed
Jump seats
Warn Belleview winch - in pieces but with all the parts - many brand new.
Stock seats, decent shape, some rips but altogether not bad.
Tons of other crap. i must have 3 distributors, all the smog equipment (all from a 60, too)
The truck is $16,500, OBO. It's a deal. I've got close to $40K in it and
the receipts to prove it. To have done today what I had done would cost far
more - ask Lance. They did a fantastic job worth twice what I paid. The ONLY problem is the paint, and that's being dealt with.
If you have questions hit me offline. I'll do my best to answer them. I
have pictures and can take more. I drive this about 2-3 times a week for
work and just for a change. During the summer we take it to Nags Head (6
hours) and it's fine.
I have a little military trailer that I tow with it, and full of wood you
can't tell it's back there. That's for sale as well.
Details:
$800 with the crane on the front.
Sprung over with, i think, 1 ton springs. It carries a lot more than it should.
6 lug axle. toyota pattern
34" truxus on 16" 80 series steelies. (they're metric, I can't remember the
size but I'll look if you like)
M114 I think.
Decent shape, a little beat up but it's character. Not rusting but not
pretty. I use it all the time.
Crane that bolts to the front cross-member for lifting heavy stuff.
Pintle hitch
Everything is located in Alexandria, VA (DC Metro). I'll ship it but I'd
rather someone come see it. I would rather not ship the parts. I've got a
new baby and a business to keep afloat, so I'd be unreliable, but I'll do
my best.
