About this 1971 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40

VIN: FJ40108384

Priced to Sell! I have two teenagers are ready to drive...need to move this vehicle to make space.

This 1971 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 was refurbished in Colombia in 2019 before being imported to the US under previous ownership. It sold on Bring a Trailer in March 2021 and was later acquired by the seller in October 2023. Finished in Capri Blue with a gray soft top over a tan vinyl interior, it is powered by a 3.9-liter F inline-six paired with a three-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Equipment includes 15″ steel wheels, manually locking front hubs, LED headlights, dual side mirrors, and inward-facing rear jump seats. This FJ40 is offered with a clean California title in the seller’s name.

The truck was repainted in Capri Blue during the Colombian refurbishment, and the body retains the classic utilitarian lines of the FJ40. Exterior details include a gray canvas removable soft top, LED headlights, dual side mirrors, and a fold-down windshield. A matching spare tire is mounted on a swing-out rear carrier.

The 15″ steel wheels wear 33×10.5″ BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain KM3 tires. Braking is handled by four-wheel drums, and the front axle features manually locking hubs. The master cylinder and brake lines were replaced under current ownership.

Inside, the 60/40-split front bench and inward-facing rear jump seats were re-trimmed in tan vinyl during refurbishment, while the exposed metal panels are finished in blue to match the exterior. Rubberized mats line the floors, and interior details include a passenger grab handle, glove box, and wind-up windows for a clean, simple cabin look consistent with the FJ’s rugged charm.

A three-spoke steering wheel fronts a replacement instrument cluster housing a 160-km/h speedometer and auxiliary gauges for oil pressure, fuel level, and amperage. The coolant temperature gauge is inoperative. The horn relay was replaced in August 2021. The five-digit odometer shows 2,100 kilometers (~1,300 miles), approximately 1,200 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The 3.9-liter F inline-six was reportedly rebuilt during the Colombian refurbishment. Maintenance under current ownership has included a throttle cable repair (August 2021), a new battery (November 2023), and a carburetor rebuild (2024). Power is sent to the rear or all four wheels through a three-speed manual gearbox and a dual-range transfer case, retaining the simple and durable drivetrain layout that made the FJ40 an off-road icon.

This well-presented FJ40 combines its classic look with tasteful upgrades, refreshed mechanicals, and recent service, making it ready for use on or off the road. It is offered with a clean California title in the seller’s name.
