Welcome to our auction of this restored Colombian FJ45 here on Fourbie Exchange! We're really excited to bring this beautifully restored rig to market, but we'll be honest—We are going to miss having it around. Nevertheless, we look forward to being able to pass this truck along to its new caretaker at the conclusion of the auction. Please let us know if you have any questions in the comments below and we will do our very best to get you answers as quickly as we can.
- Alejandro and Patricio
- The FJ45 designation of the legendary 40-Series Land Cruiser line refers to short-bed pickup, long-bed pickup, or four-door wagon sub-models.
- This particular example is finished in green over cream vinyl upholstery. Refurbished in Colombia before it was acquired by the seller in 2021 and imported to the United States in August 2022.
- Power comes from a replacement 1KZ 3.0L turbo diesel I4 engine (engine cover is from a 1KD), believed to be from a 6th Generation Toyota Hilux. It sends power to all four wheels from a 5-speed manual transmission and dual-range transfer case. The 5-digit odometer reads 1,100 km., but true mileage is unknown.
- Outfitted with power steering, disc brakes on all four corners, 3-spoke steering wheel, locking front hubs, 16 in. steel wheels, steel front bumper, drop-down tailgate, working air conditioning, and dash pad.
- Additional modifications include 33 in. Mickey Thompson Baja Legend MTZ tires, Warn winch, LED headlights, auxiliary fog lights, and Alpine stereo with aftermarket speakers and subwoofer.
- Comes with a clean Florida title and import paperwork.
- Recent service completed by the seller includes repairs to the electrical system, as well as new diesel fuel filter, fuel injectors, glow plugs, and battery.
- The seller notes inoperative vent windows and minor cosmetic flaws to the bed and body shown in the images. The headliner was damaged during the customs inspection, so it was removed. An uninstalled spare will be provided to the buyer.Â
