Toyota FJ43 Land Cruiser 1979, Meticulously and completely
restored. Exceptional Condition, a collector’s car.

Vehicle Description:

Rare Toyota F43, that underwent a comprehensive and complete frame off restoration; This is a very capable vehicle that is just as comfortable on paved roads as it is on the trails. The condition of this vehicle is exceptional!

INTERIOR: Completely refinished interior: The seats have been reupholstered and look like brand new. Very nice "Land Cruiser" door panels were also installed. The extended cab gives you a extra storage area behind the seats. Inside the doors and dash were nicely painted the same color as the body. It has a hydraulic steering wheel and electronic wipers. The ignition and door seals were replaced. It's also furnished with a new original 160 km/h speedometer and additional gages for oil pressure, coolant temperature, amperage, and fuel level too. The steering column, steering wheel, 4 speed manual shifter, and 4-wheel drive selector knobs are authentic.

REAR COMPARTMENT: The truck bed is accessed via opening rear doors. The entire bed has been smoothed and has been neatly painted.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Fresh and clean. Comprehensively and carefully rebuilt. It is equipped with power steering and power brakes. The new battery is properly secured. All the hoses, wires and belts have been replaced. The radiator was upgraded to an aluminum unit. The horn is hooked up. The underside of the hood, fender wells, and firewall are all newly painted.

EXTERIOR: This color really stands out. Every bolt has been replaced and it's complete with a new cloth soft top. The rear has roll-up curtains, the plastic is as clear as glass. It's equipped with a very desirable pickup truck bed with fold up side seats and an extended cab providing extra storage behind the front seats. It has a fold down windshield. New rubber seals on all the windows.

UNDERSIDE: The steering components were totally rebuilt and renewed as well as new body mounts and suspension system, all of the shocks were replaced. It has a new exhaust system. The engine is virtually spotless with the fresh rebuild. The rear end and transfer case look as new. The floors are solid, the frame was also restored to its original condition then painted.

This rare Toyota F43 is truly exceptional.
NOT TO BE MISSED! Practically brand new, with the reliability of a fresh rebuilt engine and an extensive frame-off restoration and probably the world's toughest 4-wheel drive, it should last trouble free for decades.
