Toyota FJ40, FJ-40 Land Cruiser - KTM ORANGE, BODY-FRAME w/ NEW TUB RESTORATION

1974 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ-40 Description

A Stunning and rare 1974 & ½, the Coolest FJ-40 year ever with the added stock 4 speed trans (3 speed in prior years) and the remaining Hatchback rear doors (went to the dual ambulance doors with no open while driving ability in 1975)! I had a professional Major Renovation Frame-Off, New Replacement Full Tub…done and completed 2005/6 by Iron Pig of VA. Easily $60K invested! All painted Factory KTM Orange as individual parts at time of restoration by Iron Pig’s preferred painter! A True Beauty who drives as good as she looks! Since all is almost better than perfect I will list what is missing or in complete: One paint spot on hood showing signs of a potential to chip (see pic). Original switches could be upgraded for greater beauty… No stereo, missing rear seats (I have a nice pair of full size units with a special brackets to fit outside of the roll bar but at an added cost of $750 beyond sale price). Rear heater missing (I have one but not that attractive but can be purchased separately if interested), vent hose to windshield air defrost missing. Skid plate missing. Just had an issue with the blinkers and hazard not working consistently (I will replace control unit as needed to have working) all other lights, wipers work great! No windshield sprayer installed, available for under $50.00. Stock engine with maybe original miles all checks out and runs good! (I was going to but a LT1 fuel injected in next…) All 4 wheel drive functions work great, locking hubs, trans smooth will do 70mph. I have a video showing drive, climbing, braking and speed I can send you! Power steering works great (a must feature!). Full tire tread life from new (maybe 2500mi on them) Would prefer to have interested buyer come and drive her in person prior to buying… I have bought almost a dozen vehicle w/o driving and have had some great luck but if possible come on over and take her for a ride! Front wheel disk brakes stops amazing, parking brake great too! Great seals all around, no leaks. Windows a bit stiff to operate but with all new parts and seals (unfortunately the front small vent windows do not open due to the position of custom roll cage). Custom bucket seats with a Tuffy center console with all kinds of storage. Stock under driver seat full size storage compartment. Many, many top quality parts and on going maintenance invested in this very tough beauty! As with the sale of all older vehicles this is a no warranty transaction but I will be glad to send with all previous work documentation and help with all questions! Be glad to assist with setting up for your pick-up in person or with a delivery service as well. I will continue to add info as this listing moves forward. I have many additional pictures and videos as well and will respond to all reasonable request for additional information! Deposit needed with in 48 hours and full payment with in 7 days as noted and is standard. Vehicle can remain here for up to 2 weeks after final payment with no storage fee. Good luck on the bidding, she is a Pure beauty!
