Selling for no reserve... Your FJ40 search is over now. I have been admiring/collecting the iconic Toyota FJs for many years and this one came along and took my breath away. Take it from me an avid FJ collector. This young pup is one of the best of the best available on the market. Restored condition and original 53k miles with absolutely no rust! Previously owned in California. Only driven 5,495 miles since 2005. The second owner was a perfectionist and decided to undertake an open check book full restoration since the car was an excellent low mile car. I have documentation for the original 53k miles and pics during restoration. Service receipts for dates and mileages at 28,452 miles on 10/18/1996 and 47,197 miles at 12/20/2000. Today it has 53,720 miles. This car has super low original miles! There are many restored FJ's available but very seldom do you see one with exceptional paint work and in this pristine condition. Paint is extremely nice and high quality. Painted factory mustard yellow in and out with white top. Not just a quick respray. Everything was removed and put back together properly with special attention to details. All new rubber seals and no overspray anywhere. It has the desirable factory 2F 4.2L 6 cylinder motor and bullet proof 4 speed manual transmission. 1976 is in the mechanical evolution sweet spot of the FJ40- it has the best driving motor with 4spd for modern freeway driving. In addition it came with a thicker sheet metal body used by Toyota. The factory am radio is still in tact and working. No cut dash! She is still wearing her original steel factory wheels and caps. The car has been kept in flawless top notch mechanical condition. Everything works- lights, vents, fan, odometer, speedo etc. I still have the original jack and original owners manual. Sorry nothing to restore or replace :) She has received some refreshing over the years. Her seats have been recovered with original vinyl. The headliner has been replaced with a factory oem Toyota FJ 40 headliner. The interior is beautiful and does not need anything. The knobs on the dash are still bright and new looking. A center locking console box was installed and hides a nice stereo system. Console has a built in armrest and lots of storage that actually locks. Original rear heater is in excellent condition. Check out the glove box PIO factory sticker (Port Installed Options). Very cool. Values of these original restored classics are rapidly increasing as the market is slim for one of these beauties. You be the judge. See the close up pics taken with a high resolution Canon SLR camera for your viewing pleasure. No pics were photo shopped or adjusted. It really does show this well in person :) The underbody frame is super clean and mint. Chassis, frame, floors, doors, etc are all perfect. The VIN stamp on right front frame rail is super legible and clear. No rust anywhere. The car runs and drives perfectly. Passes California smog with flying colors. Starts right up and has that healthy FJ 40 sound. Only one I heard that makes that crisp well maintained idle you get from a well cared for motor. You mechanics and car buffs with trained ears can understand what I mean. No smoke. No weird sounds. She shifts so crisp and clean that it will bring a tear to your eye. Its like being in a time capsule and driving one off the showroom floor. Its like that happy new car feeling all over again when you drive it! There is nothing she needs mechanically. She is a very strong confident FJ and stands tall and proud of her history. She will drive anywhere with confidence. Email for more info. Clear title in hand. Sale is as is.
