Now for sale in the Houston showroom is this 1980 Toyota FJ40, and
it's one of the finest examples you'll find of the legendary Land
Cruiser FJ series. Fresh out of a complete nut-and-bolt
restoration, this is one you need to get while you can! These
trucks are extremely well-known for being bullet-proof reliable and
supremely capable off-roaders. This family of 4WD trucks continues
to increase in value, especially the nicer ones. Finding a nice one
can be difficult, since so many of these trucks have been bashed,
abused, and just plain used up in the years before they made it to
the collectors' A-list. Fortunately, this 1980 Land Cruiser is very
clean, with a superb gray paint job that really fits the persona of
the vehicle. During its restoration, it benefited from plenty of
attention. The engine was rebuilt by Harric Motor Works, the
transmission was checked thoroughly and resealed, new U-joints and
new steering joints, new master cylinder, new clutch master
cylinder, new clutch and new pressure plate, new radiator, all new
hoses, new wheel bearings and seals were installed at all 4
corners, new front tie rod, new power steering pump, a new 4-inch
lift kit, full roll cage, and new body mounts were installed.
You'll find the interior is far more civilized than you'd expect
for purpose-built off-roader like this, with comfortable and
supportive aftermarket high-back bucket seats with plenty of side
bolster to keep you securely in place during your off-roading
adventures. Twin folding seats in back expand passenger capacity,
and with its grippy spray-in bedliner type coating on the floors,
you can get dirty and hose it right out. Toyota's 2F 4.2-liter
inline-six have powered Land Cruisers for decades, and while it
seems modest and underpowered, it's proven itself time and again in
extremely demanding circumstances. Around town, it's smooth and
torquey and the gear ratios are exactly right to make it feel quick
and agile. Its 4.2L 2F engine is mated to a 4-speed transmission,
and it sits on a new set of 33x10.5x15LT BFG Mud Terrain KM2 tires.
