Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1978 Toyota Land Cruiser BJ40, recently refurbished and repainted blue, features a 3.0L diesel engine with a 4-speed manual transmission and an Old Man Emu lift kit. Despite undergoing significant work, it has noted cosmetic flaws like hood paint cracks and minor functional issues with wipers and the windshield washer, requiring some attention.
Condition
7
The vehicle underwent a refurbishment around 2020, including a repaint and interior reupholstery. However, there are noted imperfections such as cracks in the hood paint and slow-functioning wipers. The seller also notes a windshield washer that is inoperative. While mechanically updated with an Old Man Emu lift kit and brake components, these cosmetic and minor functional issues prevent a higher rating.
