Stage Three 1976 FJ40

This 1976 Blue FJ40 was up on blocks in the desert when we found it. All original and rust free. We restored it Stage Three with modern drive train and seating. 2003 4.3 Vortec V6 with Toyota H55f five speed transmission with the matched split case 19 spline transfer case. Late model BMW bucket seats, Tuffy console, custom HVAC system, FJ62 power steering, upgraded disc brakes, Old Man Emu suspension, Optima battery and more. The body was media blasted to bare white metal, then powder coated in a zinc rich epoxy primer. Conventional PPG paint as top coat, with Line-X polyurethane applied on inner and under surfaces of the fenders and body tub for high detail corrosion protection. Build time was 12 months, and this truck is happy in Georgia now.
