In the 80's, the FJ40 was stolen from the original owner and recovered shortly after. The thieves ground the VIN off the frame. The Nevada DMV re-etched the original VIN back in original position in 2010. The firewall VIN tag was also recovered and present. I checked with the NV DMV for potential issues registering/titling the FJ40, and they assured me there wouldn't be any problems. Feel free to call them or PM me if you need clarification. The VIN on the frame, firewall, and title are all the same (original). I also have paperwork from the police department about the theft and VIN.

This thing is ready to go. It is a good candidate for a frame off, or just use it as-is. Will cruise on the highway no problem.

I tried to take a lot of good photos to hopefully answer any questions.
