1977 Toyota FJ FJ40 Land Cruiser
1977 Toyota FJ Cruiser Description
1977 FJ40
The classic look of the FJ40 is a big part of its appeal. These trucks are legendary in off-roading circles for being reliable and as agile as a mountain goat, and given their track record in some pretty difficult places, which is see why they're red-hot with collectors. Finding a nice one challenging, since so many of these trucks have been smashed, abused, Rusted and just plain used up in the years before they were on the collectors' A-list. Fortunately, this one is very clean with a correct-looking, taupe paint job and white top that looks bound for the Sahara.
The interior is comfortable high-back bucket seats and plenty of room for everyone. Twin folding seats in back expand passenger capacity and with durable rubber mats on the floor, you can get dirty without worrying about cleaning carpets when you get home. This truck shows a nice set of gauges ahead of the driver, makes driving it a pleasure. The 4-speed shifter moves through the gates easily along with front disc brakes. An FJ40 with the original hardtop in Great condition is very hard to find. Hard Top and doors are relatively easy to remove for open-air motoring if you'd like to go that route. Either way, you'll find it's all but impossible not to have fun driving this FJ40 4x4.
Toyota's 4.2-liter, inline-six powered 2F engine Land Cruisers for decades and while it seems modest on paper, it's proven itself time and again when conditions were less than ideal. Around town, it's smooth and torquey and the gear ratios are exactly right to make it feel quick and agile. The suspension is capable and rides nicely on the streets or in the dirt. Nice black wheels and newer Cooper tires, giving it the perfect stance and improved crawling ability.
cons:Seat has tearBack stationary door cable needs to be attached
Needs new drivers side mirrordent on right rear quarter pannel
The prices on these are not a joke and they're not a temporary condition. You're already kicking yourself for not buying that awesome FJ40 you wanted years ago, so don't wait another day, you likely will not find another one in this nice a condition. Thanks for Looking!
