1967 Toyota FJ40 US Model

Additional Info:

Up for sale is a highly original, Arizona-born 1960s Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser project. This classic truck features its original Freeborn Red paint, upgraded Toyota 2F 4.2L engine paired with a later fully synchromeshed 4-speed manual transmission and later 3 Speed Transfer Case.

This FJ40 has spent its life in the dry Arizona climate, leaving the body exceptionally solid, straight, and structurally sound. It wears its original, beautifully faded Freeborn Red paint, giving it an authentic, rustic "ranch truck" aesthetic. She has been stored not running for many years.

The FJ40 has a clear, clean Arizona Title, ready to sign over.

She is being sold as a non-running winter project. A previous owner updated the drivetrain with a newer 1978 Toyota 2F 4.2-liter inline-six engine, mated to a fully synchronized Toyota 4-speed manual transmission and a 3-speed transfer case.

This setup gives you the timeless, retro look of an early 1960s Cruiser with the much-improved drivability, power, and highway manners of late-1970s Toyota mechanicals. It is the perfect winter project for a collector or builder to service and bring back to life.

Body, Floors & Rust Condition (As Pictured)

We believe in absolute transparency, which is why the listing photos highlight the exact condition of the rear tub and common FJ40 problem areas:

• The Good: The main rear floor bed is remarkably solid, straight, and structurally intact. There are no massive gaping holes or compromised floor ribs. It retains its original Freeborn Red finish under the typical pine needles and surface dust.
• The Rust Areas: The body is very rust/rot free overall, with rust confined to the isolated tops/edges of the rear wheel wells directly behind the front bench seat. This is an incredibly straightforward fix with patch panels, compared to a completely rotted tub.
• Top & Doors: Sold with no hardtop. It includes a fabric bikini top and early-style half doors.
• Wheels & Tires: Stands on its original Toyota white steelie wheels wrapped in good tires.

Interior & Cabin

• Seating: Features a highly desirable, period-correct forward front 60/40 bench seat. The upholstery is in excellent condition with no rips or tears.
• Floors & Dash: Uncut and highly original, serving as the perfect blank canvas for a rolling restoration.

Mechanical & Project Status

• Engine: 1978 Toyota 2F 4.2L (Currently non-running, requires complete servicing and troubleshooting to get roadworthy).
• Transmission: Toyota 4-speed manual (Fully synchronized, replaces the harsh early non-synchro boxes).
• Transfer Case: Toyota 3-speed unit (Should be fully serviced alongside the transmission).
