Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Utilitarian repaint applied to an assembled body, sound interior. Frame and chassis restored with a spray gun. A used FJ40 with some cosmetic attention.

Market commentary

Offered at Mecum in Kissimmee earlier this year where it was reported bid to $30,000. The consignor learned his (or her) lesson and took the money, even well under the estimate. Unlike most auction FJs this one isn't so beautifully restored and can be taken immediately to the ranch or into the Glades and put to good use. It's a workin' FJ.
