Jeep recovery team fans, I mean Land Cruiser fans today is your day because i am utterly thrilled to offer for a sale this BEAUTIFUL and what is becoming RARE model, serviced, clean Carfax, rust free, 1996 Land Cruiser 40TH ANNIVERSARY LIMITED EDITION! It has been very well cared for and drives like a dream and looks absolutely stunning in Dark Emerald Pearl over two tone Leather!

Background:

This gorgeous FJ80 was produced for the 1996 model year 40TH Anniversary Limited Edition as a send off celebration for the true 4WD.

This was FJ at its best: comfortable, luxurious and capable while ready for any adventure on or off-road!

This FJ has been thoughtfully and thoroughly serviced over 5-6 months ago. Its all started with a simple tune up like, changing spark plugs, thermostat etc.. but i ended up removing the top engine redoing the head with a brand new head gasket (not the truck needed it), spark plugs, ignition coils, fuel injectors, water pump, fan clutch, belts, brand new radiator,

Engine and drivetrain:

This engine had average miles for the year with 137,000 miles appear on the odometer. It showed no signs of distress, head gasket issues, overheating, knocking or oil pressure issues. But it was part of my effort to have her last for many more years. There has been A TON of scheduled and preventive maintenance performed to this truck to keep the engine in near brand new condition. The motor is very healthy and has loads of smooth power! And a happy TOYOTA will go and go and go happily for hundreds of thousands of miles.

-ENGINE

This truck received BRAND NEW OEM head gaskets and OEM head bolts, torqued not only in the correct manner from the factory, but marked as a single visual reference point and then double checked by using a Snap-On digital torque wrench which reads angles in which bolts have been turned to ensure all the bolts have gone the proper amount of degrees. The cylinder heads were machined, cleaned, decked and pressure checked! The engine then received BRAND NEW valve cover gaskets, and seals, front cover gasket, OEM oil pan gasket, upper and lower exhaust manifold gaskets and upper intake gaskets, rear main seal, front crank seal, among a few other minor seals. These were done in order to keep with the same high regard and care. The upper and lower intakes, valve covers and front cover were thoroughly cleaned.

Tedious job for such a small detail, but it had to be done! I clean the engine bay by hand, to make sure it presented as nice as the engine. Take a nice look at the engine bay, clean throughout!

Oil lines have been re-o-ringed and cleaned. This service was done within 700-1000 miles. Upon completion I purposely planned to drive to NV to break the engine in for it it was part of this truck's ongoing care.

-COOLING SYSTEM

Let's continue to the exterior:

-PAINT

The paint is gorgeous! It is a 9- out of 10. Shiny, beautiful Dark Emerald Pearl paint I recently polished, finished, waxed and sealed. NO ACCIDENTS! CLEAN CARFAX. NO STORIES. The Dark Emerald Pearl paint is deep and has a wonderful luster! The roof has small fade and a few chip from normal use ! There were some stone chips which appeared on the hood, fear not! otherwise remarkable body the original paint is in VERY good job shape. There are a few very minor inclusions: a couple chips on the edges of the doors (can not see unless you have your eyes RIGHT on it from 6 inches away). A small ding (see pics), only seen in some angles and a few very small dings and scratches that again need to been seen only at certain angles and very up close. There was a minor touch up of the clear coat/chipping on the passenger side front fender, that takes a low sun. Remember this is a near 20 year old truck, there may be some very minor scratches, wear not discussed in detail etc, but they are well below any expectation level for FJ or cars of this year.
