ESSC presents a golden opportunity to own a beautiful example of
vintage SUV style, with this lightly modified 1969 Toyota FJ40 Land
Cruiser. This fine example has been meticulously maintained by the
current owner over the last 3 years. Shortly prior to his ownership
the SUV went through a complete restoration and was given a long
list of upgrades and modifications. Let's get started with the
power plant. This FJ features a newly rebuilt Chevy 350 motor with
2 Barrel carburation. The owner states that there are less than
1000 miles on the motor. The 350 is mated to a solid, mid 80's
Toyota 5 speed transmission. Don't let the pristine condition fool
you. True to its heritage this work horse can handle the chores it
was designed to do while still being able to cruise down the
highway. . Further enhancements include the following: Wilwood disc
brakes with stainless steel brake lines, Old Man Emus suspension
and stabilizers, Magnaflow Exhaust. GoodRich All Terrain Tires
mounted on original hubs and caps, Dakota Digital Harness, original
heater (no blower) and original wiper motor. Finished in its Forest
Green, it has a very clean interior with no rips or tears in the
upholstery. There a some very minimal areas of rust around the door
hinges and windows. They are of the surface variety (see our
pictures for details). The odometer is presently not working but
the owner states it is small part needed to regain functionality.
The top is removable. 60's SUVs in this condition, with
modifications that afford reliability, while staying true to their
heritage, do not come by often. This example is offered at 32,500
OBO. Research will show that same year examples have recently sold
at auction for considerably higher. Have questions? Contact Hank at
[email protected] or text to 201-317-9277. The
vehicle is located in Easton MD.
