Description
1983 Toyota land cruiser FJ60 4. 2 2F petrol Engine, Fire Truck
Only 2537 km from new
Just 2, 537 kms indicated; believed to be the only example in the UK; fitted with electronic power steering
First registered in Japan in March 1983, this Toyota Land Cruiser FJ61 was converted to a fire truck by Morita. Powered by a 2F 4. 2 petrol engine driving the wheels via 4-speed manual transmission, it is showing only 2, 537 kms which is believed to be correct.
Used as a fire truck at a Poly plastics company factory in Fuji, this Land Cruiser was shipped to the UK four years ago with all duties paid and was registered here as GEL 882Y in August 2020.
Showing just one previous keeper since arriving here, our vendor has owned the car since 2021 and has enjoyed taking it to various shows to raise money for the Air Ambulance. He has fitted electronic power steering which makes this '80s Land Cruiser an absolute doddle to drive and manoeuvre.
Kitted out with all the usual fire truck bells and whistles, the sirens and lights appear to be in good working order. Mechanically all seems good too, and this rather cool Japanese import has been driving around nicely on site.
Invoices on file show a new water pump was fitted along with a fresh gasket in April 2021, the electronic power steering being fitted in January 2022. A check of the MOT history online shows that it has covered some 540 kms since arriving here (335 miles) and has always passed the test with no advisories recorded. Classed as a Historic Vehicle on the V5C, it is now MOT and Road Tax exempt
