1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 at No Reserve

This 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 is said to have been stored in a barn in Colorado for more than a decade before it was acquired by the seller in 2014. Subsequent work is noted to have included replacing the fuel tank, radiator, water pump, tires, and shocks. Power comes from a 4.2-liter 2F inline-six linked with a four-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case, and the truck rides on 15″ wagon-style wheels. Additional equipment includes a removable hardtop, manually locking front hubs, front disc brakes, LED headlights, a roll bar, and inward-facing rear jump seats. This FJ40 shows 164k miles and is now offered at no reserve with spare parts, a repair manual, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Nevada title in the seller’s name.

The truck was finished from the factory in White (033), and the body has areas of rust-through, worn paint, prior repairs, and other imperfections. Details include a removable hardtop, a fold-down windshield, dual side mirrors, LED headlights, a tow ball, and rear ambulance-style doors. The windshield is cracked.

White 15″ wagon-style wheels are wrapped in BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO tires. The truck is equipped with manually locking front hubs, and braking is provided by front discs and rear drums.

The cabin houses front bucket seats trimmed in gray vinyl, and duct tape has been applied to the driver’s seat bottom. A center console, front and rear heaters, and inward-facing rear jump seats are further elements. Rust has perforated the floor in the rear passenger compartment, the right-front seatbelt is damaged, and the passenger door pull strap is broken.

The three-spoke steering wheel frames an 85-mph speedometer as well as gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, amperage, and fuel level. The horn does not work. The six-digit odometer shows 164k miles, approximately 10k of which have been added under current ownership.

The 4.2-liter 2F inline-six is equipped with a single carburetor. The seller tells us that the fuel tank, radiator, and water pump have been replaced. Oil leaks are noted.

Power is routed to the rear or all four wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case.

The Carfax report is free of accidents or other reported damage.
