What’s special about this listing

I purchased the FJ in the summer of 2022. I put about $25k (parts and labor) into mechanical improvements and about $5k into the aesthetics of the rig (Receipts attached. They indicate a 1974 Land Cruiser in error as it is 1978). New Carburetor, fully rebuilt transmission, converted Drum Brakes to Disc Brakes and master cylinder, Installed Dakota Digital Gauges, Saginaw steering kit and box upgrade, replaced front seatbelts and installed back bench seatbelt, installed wheel spacers, installed new Gas Tank (under the passenger seat) and replaced spark plugs and fuel pump. She is an absolute dream to drive and the heavy lifting has all been done! Just needs a new home!

Imported to the US in 2021. 4.2-liter 2F inline-six, coating the frame, refinished bodywork in matte gray. 4 Speed manual transmission, dual-range transfer case, power-assisted steering, manually locking front hubs, front disc brakes, 15" Ultra Motorsport wheels, a front winch, auxiliary lights, and a snorkel intake. Clean Georgia title in the seller's name.
