One-of-a-kind 1978 Land Cruiser Fj40 With Ps on 2040-cars

USA FJ40 with Colombian Soul

After Land Cruiser - What was Far became Near.

You won't find another FJ40 like this one. This truck is on consignment with Land Cruiser Nation. I sold it to the current owner and I personally owned it myself. Having owned and driven scores of FJ40 I can honestly say this one takes the cake! Attention to details is obvious at a glance and even more apparent on close inspection. It's a drop dead gorgeous Land Cruiser that is excessively high quality, tough and functional. This FJ40 was originally shipped to Puerto Rico and then on to Colombia. She was owned by a gentleman that worked for the American Embassy and was eventually rebuilt by hand before being shipped home to TX. Always garage kept and runs as good as it looks, this FJ40 has been driven about 6,000 miles since receiving a complete frame-off restoration by skilled artisans at a premier Land Cruiser shop in Colombia. Every inch of this truck was well thought out and built to outlast it's owners. The current owner continued that tradition by upgrading the suspension to the state-of-the-art Old Man Emu springs and matching shocks.

The soft top is beautiful. You will never see another like it. It was hand crafted from a heavy waxed canvas. Inside this iconic 4x4 you will find a custom interior. The seats are covered in a matching heavy waxed canvas that is super durable and will wear like WWII Bomber jacket. The steering wheel is wrapped in leather and a custom crafted carpet kit pulls it all together. The Audio system includes an Alpine head unit with Pioneer power amp, Pioneer speakers and powered Infinity Sub all professionally installed with hand fitted speaker inclosures in front and in back.

You can get in this truck and drive it every day or save it for special adventures. If it's cold, button it up and if it's hot, roll up the sides!
