1971 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 completely restored by Amazonia 4x4 Performance

Restoration Details:
All body parts were taken apart, sand blasted and immediately primed for better rust protection (primed, sealed and painted with high quality paint), in fact 3/4 of the body is new due that the original one was not worthy to repair. The whole frame was sand blasted and immediately primed and painted with Professional black color to give it a nice finish. Undercarriage was completely black rubberized undercoated to prevent even more rust issues. Inside has tinted liner in order to give this vehicle excellent noise insulation and rust prevention.

Bolts, washers and nuts were replaced with threaded Stainless Steel, all other pieces that we did not replace with stainless steel were restored, plated or painted as needed. The chassis has a complete new Old Man Emu suspension including new shocks, leaf springs, hangers, shackles, steering stabilizer and tie rod ends.

All factory seats were completely reupholstered trying to match OEM color and appearance.  The only difference to OEM is that we updated with upholstery on the rear metal covers of the front seats. This gives the vehicle a nice finish and style. As an improved safety factor, we included 4 disc brakes system, and brand new BF Goodrich all terrain mud tires, lap seat belts in front and back seats.
