Vehicle Detail

1968 Toyota FJ40 LandCruiser for sale. Has clear WV title. Speedo shows 42,288 miles, but the speedo cable is broken, so I do not know the actual mileage. Truck has the original F engine and 3 speed manual column-shift transmission. The truck starts easily and drives great. The brakes work super good and the truck tracks straight if you aplly the brakes and let go of the steering wheel. The emergency brake also works well. The four-wheel drive and low range also work well. The four wheel drive is the rare vacuum operated, so there are no levers in the floor. This truck had a restoration done in the 1990’s and the floorpans and body were redone. Truck shows signs of paint fade and minor rust bubbles under the doors. The bottoms of the doors have rust. All electrical items work including wipers, lights, signal lights, flasher emergency lights, dome light, brake lights, heater, license plate light. The only thing that does not work electrically is the cigarette lighter and there is no horn installed under the hood. The back doors work great and are in good shape. Would be a great truck to use for a restoration project or use as a driver. Recent work:New brakes installed all the way around. Drums were turned.New fuel pumpNew Distributor rebuild New Coil and plugs and wiresCarbeurator is from a later model Land CruiserManual choke worksNew fuse block installed, all electrical parts work except there is no horn on the truckHeavy Duty battery installed.Fresh professional rebuild on radiator.Fairly new muffler.New BF Goodrich Radial Long Trail T/A P235 75R15 tires on new Wagon Wheels. New air filterThings needed worked on:Needs new shocks.The trucks sits lower on the left side because of the springs . It is not a frame issue. There are more leafs in some of the springs than others. I was planning on a lift kit with new springs and that would change the profile of the truck. It is still very drivable and is not a problem other than if you look closely, you can see that the left rear sits a littler lower than the right side.The windshield has a crack in the lower passengers side. Does not need replaced unless you need a sticker on the truck.This is not a show truck by any means, but is a great, dependable driver. Would be a nice truck just the way it is, or a great start on a rebuild of your choice.I need to sell the truck because I need to fund a new project that I found which I have been looking for a very very long time. The reserve on the truck is very low compared to the prices that these trucks have been bringing. You will be happy with this one.
