glass and rubber sealsNew stainless hardware inside and out Built
as a Jeep clone then later as a CJ challenger, Toyota?s FJ-series
Land Cruiser was in production for over 25 years. MotoeXotica
Classic Cars is pleased to offer this correctly restored 1977
Toyota Land Cruiser. This particular example was made in June 1977
and sold new in North America. This FJ-40 is a genuine US market
truck and not a Costa Rican or Columbian import. The values for the
genuine US import FJ's have increased considerably due to the
recent flood of the imported FJ's into the States from other
markets of the world. The American FJ's were better opted with such
equipment as a under dash heater, front bucket seats, factory roll
bar, factory seatbelts with warning light, MPH speedometer, front
disk brakes and a hardtop with vent windows. Dressed in White over
Cygnus White, this SUV?s paint and trim are in overall excellent
condition. It has new glass panels and fresh door and window seals.
The bodywork is straight and solid, the rear cargo area looks
great, the engine bay is extremely tidy, the battery appears new
and the metal bumpers are in very good order. Changes for 1977
included removing the front door vent windows while adding rear
vent windows on U.S. hardtop models. Under the hood is Toyota?s
vaunted 2F engine, a 4.2L straight six-cylinder known for its gobs
of low-end torque. This truck in the past year has been treated to
a full mechanical restoration with parts from Mosley Motors in
Memphis Tennessee. The engine has all new gaskets, a Mosley Motors
High Compression Open Chamber Head with stainless LS valves, Holley
Sniper EFI Fuel Injection Kit, new thermostat, new fan clutch, new
water pump and new voltage regulator. Mated to the engine is a
four-speed manual transmission with a two-speed transfer case.
Driver convenience features include power brakes with discs in
front and a Holley high resolution full color touchscreen for
initial setup, tuning, and gauge displays. This truck rolls on
Capitol All-Terrain tires, size 235/75R15 at all four corners. Each
tire is wrapped around a steel wheel, topped by a factory wheel
cover and locking front hubs. Most of the interior is painted
Cygnus White with black trim. Inside, the black front bucket seats
are in excellent condition. As expected, there?s no carpeting on
the floor but the black mats in place are in great condition and
the headliner looks fantastic. Also the hardtop hardware has been
switched to fresh stainless hardware. The standard rollbar is
fitted behind the bucket seats. A three-spoke steering wheel faces
the driver, the inner door panels are in very good order while the
instrument panel, with its full set of gauges, is in excellent
order. In back, the barn doors open to reveal the lift-up jump
seats that move out of the way for more cargo space. Competition to
this Toyota in 1977 included Chevrolet?s K5 Blazer, Dodge?s
Ramcharger, Ford?s Bronco, GMC?s K5 Jimmy, Nissan?s Patrol (outside
U.S.) and Plymouth?s Trailduster. If you?re in the market for a
classic, body-on-frame SUV, it would be a mistake to overlook this
Toyota Land Cruiser. Visit MotoeXotica Classic Cars today to check
