Steve's 1973 FJ40 Landcruiser Custom
 
Item Location (City/State): Toronto Canada

Price: $100,000.00 or closest offer Interested parties please PM or email me @ [email protected]

Description:

Well guys, I have finally gotten the 73' close to perfection and ready for a new owner. Most of you know the 69' Camaro I built and sold to a great guy down in Atlanta ... so you all know the quality of the work that goes into my vehicles, and the price I am asking is very fair. At least 1000 hours in this one

Can arrange shipping anywhere in the USA or Canada ... YES even with Covid going on

I truly believe that this is a one of a kind FJ40 that someone will be EXTREMELY happy with. I built this one to be on par with some of the Cruisers that come out of Icon and The FJ Company, but much cheaper.

I can go on and on about this truck but pics say 1000 words, so please see the below links, Videos and pictures

But 1st, here are the highlites of the build;

BODY & PAINT - Original 1973 front cab / frame with Aqualu aluminum tub and tailgate with full custom soft top by Relik Garage, complete strip to bare metal, epoxy coated, painted in Audi Nardo Grey, frame blasted and powder coated, custom rear tire & cooler carrier and custom front bumper by 4Plus Products. Full custom LED lighting, Icon 4X4 side mirrors and custom roll cage by MetalTech

ENGINE / DRIVETRAIN - 6.0L LS with MSD Atomic Air Force intake tuned @ 490 HP and 440 FT Lb.'s Torque, GM Bellhousing conversion, GM NV4500, Advance Adapter’s conversions, 60’ Series transfer case, OE differentials 4:11’s

ELECTRICAL - Dakota Digital HDX FJ40 Dash with GPS, FJ40 Vintage Air Gen 4, American Autowire Highway 15, GM Engine management system by PSI Wiring, custom power windows, custom LED signal Lighting

SUSPENSION / STEERING - BTB Safari springs 4” lift, Fox ISF 2.0 Shocks, BTB reverse shackle conversion, 80 Series power steering conversion with GM Column

WHEELS - SCS Ray 10 wheels 17”x9” in satin black, 35” Nitto Trailgrappler tires

BRAKING SYSTEM - Custom Hydroboost system provided by Hydrotech, front Wilwood 6-Piston big brake kit with conversion kit, GM disc conversion rear and push-button electronic emergency brake

Custom diamond stitch door panels / rear panels and carpet, Sony Head Unit with reverse camera, JL Audio.4 way power amp with Infiniti Kappa Speakers, and custom tweeters in the roll-bar

Notes:
@ 60Mph @ 1800 rpm

Still believe this may be the only FJ40 with PROPERLY executed power windows
Dash read in MPH, and KPH in digital format
