Summary

1963 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 SWB Short Bed - Full frame off restoration Spring 'Mint' Green

Details

Everything has been restored back to factory form with a few small but much needed upgrades like power steering, F-155 motor, boosted front disc brakes, a 2' spring lift, anti-inversion shackles and 33X10.5 BFG ATs. This color was one of four colors available for this first year and it is a perfect match with all of the accurate accessory paint: white, pewter and gray colors. The Coral Salmon colored seats are the proper color for these early models and the seams are perfect. Black paneling in the back of the cab like they came from the factory. It also has a Land Cruiser stamped bezel and the correct rear tail lights and mounts. The wheels are Toyota original steelies and have been blasted and powder coated with the proper gray color with a new set of wheel center caps. It even has the proper Toyota rear decal. All emblems and stickers are correct and accurate. Everything works great and it runs great and drives great too. Temperature rises and holds. The engine is strong, the transmission is smooth and the transfer case works great. All of the lights work properly including the high beams. Lots of new parts, including, but not limited to: carburetor, radiator, starter, ignition coil, points with resister, brake master, clutch master and slave, water pump, thermostat, alternator, power steering pump, fuel pump, factory fuel filter, shocks, cap, rotor, plugs, points, fuel sender, oil pressure sender, temp sensor, exhaust, parking brake shoes, body mounts, input seals, output seals, all new engine gaskets, transmission gaskets, brake lines, oil lines, also replaced, with new window regulators, door handles and latches, lights, tags/emblems, boots and headliner. Almost all of these parts are Toyota genuine parts with a few exceptions where you simply cannot get anymore. All of the nuts, bolts, washers screws, mounts and clips have been tanked and re-zinc plated with the exception of some of the exterior bolts, some stainless steel bolts and clear zinc plated for Grade 8 strength. The entire undercarriage has been lined with mint greet tinted rock liner along with the interior of the bed.
