1974 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser4 Speed Transmission & Transfer Case327 V8 from a 1969 Impala33" new tires, Ultra rimsDrag Race Your Friends And Then Run Them Over! Hello, and welcome to my FJ40 auction. I am the third owner of this vehicle, and she has been my daily driver for the last few months. This is one fast FJ40, and she is incredibly reliable.I have never had any trouble getting the car to run or start even on cold winter days. This is still the most reliable car I have ever owned. This FJ40 is untouched and all original, minus the V8 conversion.The V8 conversion was done professionally and is very clean. The smaller radiator also helps heat the heaters up much more quickly than the old straight 6.The vehicle has spent its entire life here in Eastern Idaho, and I know both of the previous owners. They kept everything on this vehicle, including the original shifting knobs, original engine mounts, front lockers, jack, winch, etc.. The list just goes on and on. I have taken photos of everything that comes with this vehicle. The winch was disassembled by the previous owner and is in pieces. I am not sure that it works.This rig is really solid and is in excellent condition. The engine, transmission, transfer case, lights, heaters and all of the switches work. This FJ40 was taken care of and received regular oil changes and maintenance. The vehicle itself is in excellent condition and doesn't have much rust for a Cruiser. The only real rust is on the driver's side fender and along the back by the rear barn doors. This would be an easy fix or you could just roll with it.This FJ40 is stock as they come and is all original, minus the V8 conversion. Here is a list of the original OEM parts on this vehicle:The 4 speed transmission and transfer case are all stock. The entire body, frame, axles, etc. are stock with no aftermarket parts.The interior is all original including all of the switches, lights, and all four seatsThe tire carrier, hubs, lockers, winch, jack, hub caps, glove box light, shifter knobs are all OEM and original to the vehicle. The doors and hatch are all original and in excellent condition. The front and back doors are entirely rust free, and are some of the most beautiful FJ40 doors I have ever seen.The paint on this vehicle is also original. The previous owners would shoot a little primer on the rig when it got a chip in the paint to keep it from rusting. It definitely worked, and you will be stunned by how clean this rig is.You can see that most of this vehicle is stock and in great condition. I personally really like the 1974 FJ40 because it was the last year of the hatch, but it also was the first year of the 4 speed transmission.I know from past experiences that those ambulance doors are really dangerous for small kids, and fingers in general, if you don't secure them. The hatch never fails as long as you have it lifted high enough to get under it without smacking your dome. This one will fit the bill if you are 6 foot or shorter. This was also the last year of the older style doors which, in my opinion are, the coolest of the FJ40 doors--that at least goes for the retro steel interior. This FJ40 would be an ideal restore project, daily driver, or hunting rig. It does have a little rust along the rear, but everything else looks amazing.This Cruiser has not been modified at all and is all original minus the V8 conversion.The front seats look awesome and were fully restored a few years ago. The driver's side seat will need a little patch job, but is solid. The seats are original to the vehicle.The 327 V8 in itself is a valuable engine, and this one is original and unmodified. Running (as it is) it is worth $2,500 or more on its own. I have a video on Youtube that shows the car running, shifting, driving, and a complete walkthrough. You need to view this video to appreciate the power and beauty of this FJ40.I can also store the vehicle for 30 days once payment is made if you need time to arrange shipment. You will need to pay me $100.00 a month to store it any longer than that.Payment must be made within one week of auction ending. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day:) On Jun-02-14 at 06:59:50 PDT, seller added the following information: Hello, I have had inquires regarding my reserve price.I will not divulge the reserve price for this auction, so please do not ask.It is against Ebay policy to do so.If anyone wants a nice cheap FJ40 I do have a red one that has no hard top that I would sell for $3,500.It has a new 4" lift, new tires, and runs great. The lift, tires and rims are worth that but I want it gone. I need room for more cars.It is a 1970 3 speed with the original 1F engine. The only downside is it does have some rust. If you are interested please message me and I will send pics.
