1977 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 - Great Mechanical Cond Phoenix AZ

- Clean 1977 title, 1982 frame & rebuilt 1984 2F engine - Approximately $20,000 invested ($17,690.06 in hard copy receipts). - You could drive this truck home today and make it a great weekend warrior off roading and work truck. Or you could set it up in the garage, replace the tub and restore it to a true classic! This a very original truck that has not been butchered with modifications. My loss is going to be your gain! - The truck has been in garage storage for the past 12 years. I simply don’t have the time to give the body the attention it needs and deserves, and want to find a new owner that will allow this classic truck to be enjoyed on a more consistent basis. I am open to negotiate a fair price with someone who can appreciate the value of the great mechanical condition of the truck and the value of all the upgrade parts that have been added over the years. - Lights, gauges, wipers, heater, etc. all work. No power steering. - Early 2000 Kenwood CD sound system with 6 speakers. Two front speakers are mounted in the cabin in case you want to take the front doors off and thereby loose access to the speakers installed in the doors. - Original seats; rear jump seats are in solid condition; Front seats need to be reupholstered. - LT Radial A/S Commanche M+S tires are in operable condition on 15” wheels. Spare tire is flat and irreparable. Brand new SS lug nuts never installed. - With the engine rebuild, the truck can solidly handle 75mph on the highway. - Original hardtop and rear ambulance doors were removed shortly upon purchase of the truck and the soft top and have been stored in the garage attic. - Regular tune-ups and maintenance was performed until the truck went into storage starting in 2007. During garage storage, the truck was driven three times a year to keep engine functioning and parts lubricated. Gas had stabilizer added. - The rust on the tub is “stabilized”. All the rust was cut back to clean metal and then primed and painted. The rust on passenger door and passenger running board is “active”. The chaulky texture seen in various locations is wax build up on the orange feel paint finish. - The truck is listed for sale on multiple online venues. Serious buyers are welcome to test drive the truck. I will accept cash, cashier’s check, or money order only. I am not able to coordinate shipping for a non-local buyer. I can drop off the truck at a local shipper coordinated by you. Payment is required in full at the time of purchase or upon drop off at a shipper. - Hard copies of all parts receipts are available. - I can send additional photos of any specific areas of the truck for serious buyers.
