Re: Buying a FJ40
you need to look for rust, straightness of body/chassis. check for all the panels lining up nicely, check for motor swaps (if you want it to restore, you want the original), check/inspect all tranny/t-case/diffs, when you drive it shift it in and out of 4wd, check for electrical nightmares (all wiring is easily seen in them), check the top for what kind of condition it is in, does it leak? does the motor leak? all the normal stuff, just crawl under it to give it a really good lookover.
