I am also the lucky owner of 1983 FJ40. Mine is also in red and white color with 2F meshed with H55F tranny, CDI distributor, high-speed self-starter, electric fuel pump, air conditioner, heater, power steering, AVM locking hubs, front disk brakes. There is nothing more precious and loveable in vehicles then a 40 series Land Cruiser. This is THE most iconic and beautiful off-road machine ever built.

Dude, I wish! I've always been a Jeep fan, but this thing is a beauty! Great find, sounds awesome when you're driving around. Just can't get that great sound anymore!

noticed non of your videos (that i have seen) shows the car dash or the exterior car lighting in the dark, would love to see how they come across at night ,, big fan of your brand by the way, keep up the good work, thanks

Great find , and thanks for sharing! Pugs

Thank you for replying the quality of this video was amazing

Stunning!

Love the FJ Also need to find the matte finish sunglasses.

Nothing crappy or low production about your videos Jonathan! Please keep them coming!

I used to be in the ILA Clerks & Checkers union and I watched a longshoreman drive one of these (same color) from the ro/ro ship in low range first gear almost 1/4 of a mile. I was amazed that he didn't blow the motor.

Those shades are sick!

We can't help but notice that anti-roll bar behind your head.

You would make an awesome representation of a 1972 K5 blazer. I would love to see one in the future of possible

Sweet! Can't wait to see them with your touch

Very nice. If I had a pile of cash this FJ would get to see Goose Lake outside of Red River, NM.

The H41 is a non-US 4 speed, with a 5:1 first gear. The transmission in that truck is an H42, the same as all 4 speeds in the U.S. An H55F which I know you are familiar with is essentially an H41 with an overdrive gear. I've had an H41 in my U.S.-spec FJ62 for two months and I love it... have to shift before the end of the intersection and am pushing 3200 rpm on the freeway, but who the hell cares!

Pristine fj John, great find! I'm sure you have given this some thought already but I'll throw it out there anyway. The hummer h1 civilian model - what if a client came to you and asked you to toy around with weight reduction along with the full line of icon touches that you do with your projects on his old H1 civilian wagon lets say. Do you think you'd be able to make an H1 with increased maneuverability, offroad prowess, on road liveability/performance and increase the overall greatness and quality like you did with the willys, fj, bronco, ram d200 etc? A finished product of that I feel would be similar to your fjs rugged simplistic yet liveable interior and road manners maybe? I guess it depends on the individual client and how you'd see it best. I don't know if the H1 carries the potential to be a well rounded offroad tool like the broncos/fjs but seeing what you've done so far I feel as though you'd almost certainly be able to make it happen. Also don't you think that would appeal to a lot more people and considering executing a project like that could mean your company could grow more? I am only saying this to hear your thoughts on my suggestion/idea as to whether you think it's possible, plausible or if it's a road you've already been down. I love what you do and youtube seems to be the only way I can follow what icon is up to and the only way to see your vehicles in action. This actually makes me think your not getting the amount of recognition you deserve. Just my opinion. I do live on the east coast so I'm sure it's different on the other end. But seeing how superior your products are I feel like I should be seeing you on talk shows and stuff. Would like to hear your thoughts Thanks for the videos.

What size and make of tire is on this? BFG All Terrain KO or KO2? Apologies if you state it in the video

Howzit Jonathan! Can i buy a set of those quick release battery terminals that you use on your BR's from you guys?

Cool men

What's that light green truck in the shop at the beginning? I'm guessing it's another Icon D200, but that particular one looks like its got a shorter bed than your other D200s.

My friend has the same type, the color and the roof are even the same.

Crappy? Why crappy? If it is interesting and informative, then it is interesting. And this one was both. I liked it.

You should do a test drive using the Periscope App

Are those footwell vents on the front quarter panels?

***** What do you use, a little silicone to keep them good? I wish cars today still had those, and the quarter glass vent windows.

I'll bet parts are heck to find. My friends uncle had a 68 with a 3 speed on the column and the 4wd lever was dash mounted.

Its actually not bad, you can shop around and generally get fairly reasonable deals. The bigger trick is getting an FJ40 thats not 100% clapped out. Bring that truck hes driving to the east coast of the USA , and see how many years it will last. The newer models had thinner lower quality body metal, and tended to rust pretty quickly.

You are seriously kind of the coolest guy ever... HAHAHA

Was this filmed with a go pro

How many price of this vehicle?

How much ? I'm in Australia.

asking price?

Watch?

I know of one for sale, 1980, in good shape, needs power stirring pump............$20,000

Подарите мне FJ 40 ,PLEAS!!!give me a FJ PLEASE !!! THIS IS MY DREAM!!!

First

It's wankers like these that have pushed the prices of these off road vehicles up so much that no one ever uses them for what nature intended,and the people that need a off road workhorse has to pay a minimum of 6k for a beater,
