1978 FJ40 Landcruiser - as seen in Toyota 4WD Magazine

1978 Toyota Land Cruiser

My 1978 FJ40 Landcruiser underwent a full frame off restoration in 2007 and has been featured in Toyota 4WD Magazine.
It pains me to sell him (Clifford), however I now live out of state and he's only been collecting dust (and beginning to rust) at my mother's house in Portland.
I have over $20k in receipts, he's been in Toyota 4WD Magazine, and I've had offers in the past at the $30k mark, HOWEVER - he's been sitting outside for the last 5 years, and has only been run a few times over that time span. He was last run in 2014. His battery is dead, some of the paint is cracking a bit near the front cowl and rear windows, and all the drive fluids and diff seals will need to be done. He'll be sold without starting since you'll need to do a full fluid flush prior to starting, however I can guarantee once you've done the fluids, given the carb a basic tune, and replaced the battery, the engine will run without any issues. The engine is a brand new Crate 350 and has less than 10k miles on it.
Features:-Frame off restoration (sand blasted and powder coated frame, tie rods, relay rods).
-3/4 Aqualoo Aluminum Tub-Tub lined with durable protective coating top and bottom (similar to Rhino Liner)
-Crate 350 GM w. 4bbl Carb

-Neat locking steel dashboard storage box (can't recall who makes it). Needs to be re-painted as it's peeling as seen in photos (black).
-Steel locking center consol unit, black.
-K&N air filter on the Crate 350.
-BMW Seats - should be re-upholstered or covered, but the electronics all worked nicely the last time I was running it. Lots of granular lumbar support etc via the dials on the side.
Known Needs:
-All fluids flush/replace-Diff seals.
-New battery
-Has a roof top tent that's been sitting outside (on top) and probably is best just thrown away due to moist PNW air.
-Carpet inside should be replaced as the interior smells very musty (from moisture)
-Needs new headliner
-Front drive shaft needs to be secured-Missing some door bits (knobs/cranks)
