Vehicle Description
With its outstanding vintage aesthetics thoroughly intact and accompanied by an aggressively lifted stance, this 1974 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser has a distinctive "ready for action" appearance that's hard to resist. But its appeal extends far beyond its appealing looks. This venerable Land Cruiser rolled off the assembly line at an opportune time, and among collectors in the know, it's seen as a sort of bridge between its rugged, early '70s counterparts and their descendants that followed later in the decade, which arrived with enhanced mechanical capabilities. Check out its classic, round headlights and vintage body markers that serve as reminders of its storied lineage. Beneath the surface, this capable ride harbors a number of functional upgrades that deliver a driving experience you're bound to enjoy for years to come.
The black vinyl interior retains its original factory style, with the exception of a pair of aftermarket front bucket seats that are equipped with racing harnesses and are heavily bolstered to provide a nice level of support for more spirited driving. While the rear bench seat could use a bit of revitalization, it's still functional in its current state and only adds to this Toyota's appeal. This FJ40 holds the promise of lots of fun-filled miles in open-air configuration, but should the weather not cooperate with your plans, its black vinyl top still fits well and is in good overall condition. Up front, the original gauges are still easily readable and are joined by trio of aftermarket displays mounted under the dash to keep a closer read on oil pressure, voltage and operating temperature.
Just a brief test drive will be all that's needed to convince you this classic is plenty road ready. It's 3.9-liter, inline six-cylinder engine was hailed as a sizable upgrade over its predecessors when it was released and, fed by a Weber two-barrel carburetor, it's in fine form here, starting up with no issues and idling smoothly. The accompanying 4-speed H42 manual transmission, considered to be part of the rarest drivetrain configuration for the Land Cruisers of this era, received accolades of its own for its reliability and is in matching condition. The spark plug wires have also been replaced and an upgraded distributor now sits in place of the original to enhance ignition performance.

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES: A documentation fee of $399 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT: We require a non-refundable $500 deposit due at time of offer and an additional $500 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers.
SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS: All vehicles are sold AS IS and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!

We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle.
