What is the most collectible FJ 40 land cruiser years?

Hi everyone!
Buying a 1979 FJ40 Land Cruiser. I live in North East and it is all original with 66K miles.it has some rust but overall only a few trouble spots have showed up, like the rear lower panels and fender tops. Windshield motor and interior all look good. I wondered if anyone could tell me based on pictures what it may be worth. Also, which years are the most sought after early land cruisers and why?

If you search 1979 FJ40, you'll find the photos of the one I'm buying. Sicilian Olive/white top. Would be interested in knowing what everyone thinks of the condition and value.

Cheers,
Dave

I'd guess mid 70s to 80s are most desirable due to a few changes like engine size, disc brakes, tranny, ambulance door setup, etc. also keeping it pre-smog is not a bad idea. Over on ih8mud you'll find everything you could want to know about cruisers. Good luck!
