Vehicle Detail
This is an antique 1961 Toyota FJ40. This is the second year model for the FJ40. The first 3 yrs are very rare and offer a few unique qualities. I am by no means an expert on these trucks, but do know a little bit about them, so if you have any questions I will do my best to answer them. The following is the history that I know about the FJ:I purchased the vehicle 5 yrs agoThe engine, brakes, hubs have all been rebuilt in the past 7yrsThe wiring has been redone in the past 7yrsI put a seat cover on the bench seatA new weber carb was installed last year due to the fact I could not find any oem carb repair kitsI am told the weber carb will improve the high end a little bit and give it a little better fuel mileageThe wheels and tires I installed 5yrs ago, the are standard chevy 6 bolt patternThe suspension was also replaced 6yrs ago and had a shackle lift installedOriginal 3spd on the tree was converted to 4spd on the floor for easier shifting This vehicle has been in my storage facility most of the time I have owned it. I have driven it around town here and there, never on the highway. The frame is completely solid, if I kept it any longer I would probably redo the exterior paint back to original red. The tub over all has some rust here and there, most has been removed and repaired. This FJ could be a great Father/Son project with mostly cosmetic work needed to be perfect. I have no problem helping coordinate with your shipper anywhere you wish. I will accept cashiers check, cash or wire transfer. Total must be received within 7 days of auction end.
