For a half-century, ver a million Land Cruisers have traversed paths from the South Pole to the Sahara.It's widely reported that only about three hundred FJ40's were imported to the USA in 1983 which was the last year the FJ40 was available in the United States. Of those 300, t's estimated that 50 or so had factory power steering and air conditioning. Of those 50, few had wing windows which normally would have been reserved for non-USA trucks. The legend goes that in 1983, oyota was grabbing whatever parts were available to fulfill the orders for the last FJ40's bound for US soil in 1983. This is one of those trucks with all of the aforementioned attributes.

Land Cruiser Nationis selling this 1983 FJ40 for a customer. I have personally seen and driven this truck in the past. In 2011 this truck was in Tulsa, K. It was purchased by a customer/collector in Iowa and I sold it for him a few years later to the current owner in New Mexico. Some of the photos are from Oklahoma and some are from New Mexico. There are several photos if you click on the link below. The truck has spent much of the past 5 years in storage and driven sparingly.

Built in July of 1983, his FJ40 began her journey in Houston Texas at Don McGill Toyota. She's a survivor and a beautiful example of a stock unrestored 1983 FJ40 wearing mostly original paint.The hood and front fenders were a little faded so the owner had them paintedin 2011. There are no signs of any body work or rust repair.Scratches and scuffs have been touched up.The only rust that is evident is a couple small spots inside on thewheel tubs.She has both factory power steering and factory air conditioning and was rustproofed when new. Having alwaysbeen garaged, he truck remains in excellent condition with just a few minor bumps and bruises. Under the hood is the originalengine 2F with factory emissions. Original transmission with 3.70 gears, tock suspension, xles, tc. Correct OEM whitespoke wheels, actory Aisin freewheeling hubs.

The interior is clean and original.Over the years, he drivers seat had a split and wasreupholstered. The passenger seat was perfect but it was reupholstered to match.The headliner was sagging and was replaced.The dash pad is original and in perfect condition. The truck has original floor mat both front and rear.

Mechanically it couldn't be much better. It's always been well maintained and driven very sparingly in the last decade. It'shad a power steering pump seal replaced.

The hard top doesn't appear to have ever been removed. The 31x10.50 Radial tires have less than 1500 miles on them.

This old school 4WD serves up an awesome combination of off-roading prowess. Toyota factory steering makes driving this FJ40 effortless. Front disc and rear drum brake combination will bring all you to a quick and uneventful stop.The color is the original Toyota Olive (paint code 653)

This is one very cool SUV that's still every bit as functional today as it was in when it drove off the showroom floor. It's tight, attle free and capable.

If you're looking for a cool classic that's fun, nique and ready to hit the road, his is it!
