The FJ40 Buyer's Guide
Don't buy a rust bucket dressed up in fresh paint. The checklist we'd take to any inspection:
- The 8 places FJ40s rust first, and how to check them
- Frame, engine and drivetrain checks, including a safe 4WD test
- FJ, BJ, HJ model codes, VINs and originality
- Red flags in listings, market notes and a printable 47-point checklist
