This Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1966 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 spent time in Arizona and underwent a refurbishment during previous ownership before it was acquired by the seller in 2020. Refinished in cream over a gray vinyl interior, the truck is powered by a 3.9-liter F inline-six linked to a four-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Features include a black bikini top, a tubular front bumper with driving lights, 15″ American Racing wheels with 31″ tires, a Rough Country suspension lift kit, a bolt-in roll bar, and a heater. Work in 2020 consisted of replacing the wheel cylinders on the right rear axle and flushing the brake fluid. This FJ40 is now offered with service records and a clean California title in the seller’s name.

The three-spoke steering wheel is missing its horn button and frames a 100-mph speedometer as well as gauges for oil pressure, engine temperature, amperage, and fuel level. The engine temperature and fuel level gauges do not work correctly. The five-digit odometer shows 86k miles, approximately 500 of which have been added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
