Asking 40k. Original patina paint with dealer stripes. I’ve owned this FJ40 for many years and have maintained it myself.

It was a daily driver but currently doing full maintenance routine before selling so the new owner has no issues.

Oil pan and rear main seal
Front knuckle rebuild and reseal
Cooling system refresh including water pump fan clutch and thermostat.
Recent carb rebuild and fuel tank replaced. New warn locking hubs

Cruiser interior is black Bedliner with black waterproof canvas factory front seats and rear folding Jeep seat. Has locking tuffy center console and almost perfect dash pad.

I have a new headliner, visors, door seals and window guides also for the truck.

It currently sits on low mile 35x12.50 KM3.

Man I love that look. Id rather have that than the same truck with a good paint job in factory color that looked new. Just can't duplicate it. Im hunting an original paint green 75-78.
 
Truck also has koito headlight upgrade and 110amp alternator.

I have a set of shorter shackles and factory grey rims available also if 33 skinnies were wanted on it instead of the 35s.
 
Interior needs a good scrubbing. Planned on taking the top off this weekend and doing that as well as taking it to the shop to get the new headliner out in.

Undercarriage was pressure washed and frame rails blown out while trans/transfer was out for clutch and reseal. There is no frame rot. Just surface rust. Plan is to use some rust converter and fluid film.

Front driveshaft was off during these photos while it was being installed. But is on now.

This is the only major rust I needed to deal with. I replaced the entire rear sil. Also replaced the rear frame channel while doing the sil because I hated the welded on hitch.

Made some changes to the rig. Made it a little more stock look and upgraded a few things. Running out of things to do on it before I try and list it. Need to put the hubcaps on, hard top back on and another coat of patina sauce.

I messaged you multiple times.
I texted you multiple times.
You never answered and so I moved on. Picked up a nice '74. I hope you find a buyer I really like what you've done.
