SOLD Shingle Springs, CA: 1977 FJ55: $8,000

[Old Nick]

Gents, my BIL (not a member here) is selling his 1977 FJ55. He picked this up as a barn find about 4 years ago. Bunches of pics and a full description are in the FB marketplace ad.

I’m happy to put you in touch with him directly. Pm me and I’ll get you his number.

Anyway, here’s the ad:

Thank you for posting the pics. I’m not on FB and get “log in” prompts.

@RUSH55 @PabloCruise Maybe there was 1 or 2 months of "77" models that had the new tailgate without the lettering? I'm assuming of course that 65061-90370 doesn't have the TOYOTA lettering but I don't know that for a fact.

I wonder if it is 65061-90370 that looks different in that the portion that was normally recessed for the stamped "Toyota" is raised, and has the 4WD emblem up higher?
