SOLD S. Florida - 1971 FJ40 - Very original - Amazing Condition - Barn Found - 2 owners (1 Viewer)

Year

1971

Vehicle Model

1. 40 Series

Location

United States

Mileage

28000

Beautiful 2 registered owner FJ40 produced for the USA with 3.9L I-6 motor. Originally purchased in Asheville, NC then shipped and spent most of its life on a Ranch in Wyoming. Repainted in what is believed to be its original Spring Green color, otherwise all original. Odometer shows approximately 28,000 miles and after talking to the sellers and inspecting condition I truly do believe that to be the true mileage. The truck is gorgeous in and out and so clean for its age and never being restored. Everything functions as it should from factory including the 4wd system. This FJ40 has retained its original heaters front and rear. This FJ is equipped with 3 speed manual on the column (3 on the tree) and a blast to drive. Includes (2) factory tool kits, original jack, original owners manuals, original 1971 Wyoming license plate and dealer tag frame when purchased new. The interior is believed to be all original and in amazing condition. The driver seat has a tear on the top but does not affect function or comfort. Few surface rust areas underneath but ZERO through rust. Paint is spider cracking in a few areas but all around amazing FJ. This FJ was found on a rural farm in South Carolina after being purchased form the original owner's family in Wyoming. When I purchased it ran good and everything worked but had a few quirks, pops and stalled now and then. Immediately after I purchased the FJ I had all fluids and plugs changed. Last month I took the FJ to a specialist in my area and gave him a blank check to do anything needed to make it run and function like new. I spent $2500 having original carb rebuilt, new plugs, new vacuum lines, 2 fuel filters, rear brakes rebuilt, and more. It now runs and drives amazing! I drove it over 100 miles last weekend and intend to drive it up and down A1A again this weekend. This is my first FJ so I hope I have explained it well, but I am always more than welcome to answer any questions. I'd be more than happy to send anyone videos or more pictures upon request. I'll miss this car but I have had my fun with this one and on to the next bucket list car on my list.

Asking - $26,000

I know when I logged in to post mine I saw that one at the top of the thread and had to read his post. In my opinion it’s the best color they made it in. Perfect beach cruiser! This is it next to my GX

This one is awesome. With the column shift too! That's the only thing that I am missing in mine.

Shows sold. Did it sell?

Shows sold. Did it sell?

Yes it has sold. Went to a 40+ car private collection local to me in S FL that has already sent it off to be frame off restored. He drives everything he owns though so I was happy to see it go to a good home where its going to get fully restored and driven.
