This is a frame off restoration of a US spec 1982 Fj40 Land Cruiser.
It has only 125, 000 miles on original 2F with all emissions equipment intact. Passed CA SMOG with flying colors.
Very strong running original 2F. Just tuned-up with new plugs, cap/rotor, and rebuilt carburetor. It is equipped
with factory power steering and front disc brakes.
Late model FJ40 (8/1980 and newer) uses the upgraded 4-speed and "split-case" from an FJ60. Much stronger and
quieter. There are no official numbers of fj40 brought to US market in 1982. It's been said that between
1, 000-1, 500 were actually brought to market here. Only around 300 1983 Fj40's were brought to US market in 1983.
Making this 1982 FJ40 rare in there own right being one of the last full production year.
Being a “un cut” CA fj40 it had minimal rust prior to restoration. Tub, body parts, frame amid undercarriage
components were media blasted. Tub & body parts were etch primed. Frame and undercarriage components (excluding
axles) were powder coated satin black. A new driver floor pan and rear sill panel were replaced. Passenger side
ambulance door received new bottom sheet metal. The body was repeatedly blocked and sanded to perfection. The
fj40 was color changed to a factor color "rustic green" code 621. Sprayed as a 2 stage (color & clear coat)
Every part on or under this land cruiser was meticulously sanded and painted, powder coated or ceramic coated. The
land cruiser was put together with new and/ or OEM stainless or zinc plated hardware All weather striping rubber &
felt is OEM Toyota new. Seats were reupholstered. Tuffy center console was installed. Has a Alpine head unit.
Has 5 new 33x10.5 BFG All Terrain tires on original steel wheels. Wheels were painted same white as roof cap &
bezel. Wheels were pinstriped with matching rustic green paint.
