1977 Toyota Land Cruiser Base Sport Utility 2-Door 4.2L

For sale is a 1977 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser. This is an untitled 350/4-barrel conversion project. Since I am unlikely to become a rock crawling enthusiast, I am letting this rig go in order to concentrate on a stock'77 2F project that I subsequently purchased to restore as my hwy/off-road everyday driver. This FJ arrived as a running project, so I test drove it prior to storing it in a friend's barn for the winter. The front disc brakes, power steering, transmission & 4-wheel drive operated normally. The rig has a high lift intended for rock crawling that more than accommodated the 33 x 14.5 Super Swamper tires seen in the photos. The Swampers have since been parted out and replaced with a set of (4) Cooper Discoverer H/T tires (70%) mounted on stock cygna white OEM wheels. The frame is in excellent condition. The radiator is currently leaking. I will include a replacement OEM 4-core radiator. The tub & cowl alone are worth what I have set the reserve at. It has some minor holes that wouldn't present any problem to an experianced restorer.
.
To remove the rig from the barn last week (to part out the Super Swampers), I needed carb starter to get it going, but it repeatedly stalled before getting parked. I suspect a fuel filter replacement or carb cleaning is
needed. A complete tune-up will eventually be required. If time permits, I will get it running again and you can drive onto your trailer, but be prepared to load it alternatively, e.g., with a come along winch. I will assist with loading. This FJ40 is being offered without a title. Let me be clear, THERE IS NO TITLE WITH THIS VEHICLE. Please Note: eBay did not provide a listing option for an untitled vehicle when formatting this listing. According to the PO owner, he was promised but never received the title from the seller from whom he bought it. Since he was going to continue the build as a rock crawler and planned to trailer it anyway, he didn't follow thru to obtain the NC title.This vehicle DOES HAVE the original vin plate on the driver's side cowl door jamb. Two notarized original bills of sale will be provided to the buyer, so that they can retain an original in the event they attempt to re-title the vehicle and are required to submit an original bill of sale.
