Instead of spending weekends cutting rust out of fifty-year-old steel — or hunting down a donor vehicle for one usable panel — you start with straight, new metal that is ready for preparation and paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eFits\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eToyota Land Cruiser FJ40 \u0026amp; FJ45\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eYears\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1979-1984\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePanel type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTubs, Cabs \u0026amp; Body Assemblies\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eSKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSYC-TY65-00-3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSupplied ready for prep and paint\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eInstallation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProfessional \/ experienced builder — approx. 1–3 days for removal and replacement, excluding refit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eWelding required\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo — bolt-on \/ transfer fit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis body assembly fits the \u003cstrong\u003eToyota Land Cruiser FJ40 \u0026amp; FJ45\u003c\/strong\u003e, model years \u003cstrong\u003e1979-1984\u003c\/strong\u003e.

A new replica body assembly gives you a fixed cost, a known timeline and straight steel from day one. No hunting classifieds for a donor FJ45, no cutting up a survivor for one usable panel, no discovering that the ‘solid’ second-hand panel you shipped across the country rusted the same way yours did.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 \u0026amp; FJ45\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eToyota's 40-Series Land Cruiser — the short-wheelbase FJ40 and long-wheelbase FJ45 — was built from 1960 into the mid-1980s and has become one of the world's most valuable and most restored classic 4x4 platforms. The two models share their front sheet metal, windscreen frame, firewall and much of the cab structure, which is why many reproduction panels fit both. Simple flat-stamped steel construction makes the 40-Series unusually restoration-friendly: panels unbolt or drill out at factory spot-welds and new steel goes in the same way it left the Arakawa body plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery unrestored 40-Series carries corrosion in predictable places — quarters, sills, floors, tailgates, fender aprons and footwells — because Toyota never galvanised the originals. Reproduction panels pressed to factory profiles are the fastest, most cost-effective route back to a straight body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professional \/ experienced builder  |  \u003cstrong\u003eTypical time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1–3 days for removal and replacement, excluding refit  |  \u003cstrong\u003eWelding required:\u003c\/strong\u003e no.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA complete assembly replaces unbolt-and-lift structure: disconnect wiring, fuel and brake lines routed through the body, unbolt the mounts, and lift the old structure off the chassis. Inspect and refurbish chassis outriggers and mounts before the new assembly goes on — new body on rusty mounts is wasted money. Shim to factory alignment before final torque, then transfer doors and hardware and set all gaps.

The Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 \u0026amp; FJ45 commonly rusts in quarter panels, sills, floor pans, tailgates, fender aprons and footwells, and this replica pressing replaces corroded original metal with new steel — no donor vehicle required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you ship this internationally?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
