My 1976 Toyota Landcruiser FJ40

This was an awesome truck. I bought it for $4000 from a guy in NH that had it sitting in his backyard for years, it was rusty and needed a ton of work, but I had to have it. I spent the next several months restroing the truck to what you see below. The only thing I regret is not taking a ton of pictures during the restoration. I didn't have a digital camera at the time and I have misplaced most of the pictures since then.

My FJ40 came with a V8 already in it, converted by Advanced Adapters to a 1967 Chevy 327 Corvette engine. Needless to say it had plenty of power and sounded awesome.


I had the body completely redone, all the rust from the nooks and crannies and painted with a Chrysler color that basically matched the original Olive FJ40 color with a ton of metallic in it.  The interior was basically in good condition, I just needed to replace some of the instruments, knobs, dash cover, etc.
