FJ40 (Bandeirante) 1990

Description for Toyota FJ Cruiser 1990

For sale is a complete frame off, nut and bolt restoration of a Toyota FJ 40 1990 (Bandeirante - OJ50LV). Truck is in absolute pristine condition. No aspect of the full frame off restoration process has been overlooked, as each part has been meticulously restored.

"Bandeirante" is a Brazilian version of the FJ40. These trucks were produced in Brazil until 2001. Truck is factory equipped with a very reliable Mercedes 4 Liters Diesel engine (OM-364) and a 4 gears transmission.

Restoration began with a solid frame and body in very good condition, it was completed dissembled, frame was removed, sand blasted and coated with a corrosion resistant paint for max protection. All the body parts were also sand blasted to bare metal and painted in Toyota Beige in separate pieces, and then carefully re-assembled on the chassis.
