1963 was one of the very first years FJ’s 40’s were imported into the US. Toyota imported 1,756 and out of those they imported Soft Tops, Hard Tops, and the truck model. This 63 is rare and one of ~300 ish. This land cruiser I am selling has had a total restoration with some upgrades. My “63” was just entered into the largest car show in Idaho and placed second in its class. When I purchased there was virtually no rust, as it had 5 coats of paint on the tub and fenders. I have every single receipt spent on this vehicle including every nut, bolt, and washer. I have scoured the internet and only found one (1) 1963 that has ever sold.
