About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

No represented history other than that it has been restored to original specs. Good truck quality respray with a few cracks on the passenger's door. A few sprayed over cracks in the wood, but the bed is sound. Spotless older restored and well painted frame. Dry, cracked weather stripping. Good, mostly restored interior other than some dull switchgear. Restored to truck standards.

Market commentary

The more unusual body styles fitted to the classic Land Cruiser tend to attract the attention of collectors more so than a run of the mill FJ40, but this one's budget cosmetic refresh isn't ideal. It sold at Mecum Dallas last year for $20,350 and was let go for a similarly appropriate number here. If it was given a full high-quality restoration, the price would be a lot higher.
