Description

FJ40 - one of the nicest aroundMany more pictures can be found at this link.
This restored 1978 Toyota Land Cruiser began as a new Toyota purchased in Texas in 1978. The present owner bought this Land cruiser from a Lexus mechanic in the Spring of 2013. He then had the utility vehicle completely disassembled, cleaned, rust areas were all replace or made to perfection by craftsman to match original. The frame was coated with protective coating. The interior was restored to all original specs using NOS parts. All badges and exterior trim were replaced with new from Toyota. This Land Cruiser is excellent in every area from the undercarriage, engine bay, interior, and exterior. It also has the rare side by side rear entry doors and tire carrier. In total, roughly 891 hours of labor have been applied to the restoration of this perfect '78 FJ40 in the last 3 years and $18,000 in NOS parts and materials have been used to bring this '78 FJ40 to its current condition.
It's driven on a regular basis and starts right up on the first try. As depicted in the many photos, this 1978 Land Cruiser has been professionally restored back to better than factory condition. There are 3 small chips on the roof.
We are currently in an economy in which classic car values continue to consistently improve. Record prices are being paid at each consecutive auction for similar automobiles. As long as this trend continues, a vehicle of this caliber is likely to continue to appreciate in the foreseeable future.
