The Toyota Land Cruiser has forged a reputation as a formidable off-roader, and it’s done so in nearly all countries where it is, or has been sold. Introduced in 1948, it’s Toyota’s longest-running badge, and today, is available in multiple forms. Along the way, there have been many iconic Land Cruisers, and today’s 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 comes from the J40 era. Made between 1960 and 1984, the J40 also saw production in Brazil, from 1968 until 2001. With its timeless styling, simplistic yet capable mechanicals and formidable off-road chops, the J40 is the default choice for many who want to go anywhere that a road doesn’t exist. Today’s 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 is no different, but it’s got a rather tasty surprise under the hood. Read on to find out more.
At the outset, this 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 looks menacing with its high-riding stance and black paint job. The vehicle has received aftermarket halogen headlamps and a roof rack sits atop its already lofty roof. Then we get to the wheels and tires of this machine, which are a set of 17-inch beadlock units wrapped in LT265/70 M/T Trail Grappler tires from Nitto. Atop the roof rack lie some more lights for illuminating the area ahead when needed. The interior of this 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 is largely stock, with its black leather seating enjoying some orange contrast stitching. There are two seats up front, and two facing benches in the rear. This allows a total of six adults to travel with ease within this 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. We also see an air conditioning system and an upgraded sound system to make trail-bashing or city cruising more pleasing.
The star of the show that moves this 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 is a potent 2.8-liter Cummins turbodiesel. Paired with an automatic transmission, it offers a great blend of driving ease and effortless torque across any terrain. As you’d expect, the vehicle is four-wheel drive with a two-speed transfer case. So, you need not worry about roads wherever you’re planning to go.
Now here’s a golden oldie of the off-road community. This red and white 1977 Toyota Land Cruiser HJ45 is a long wheelbase pickup variant that’s perfect for someone who’s a fan of classic pickups, Japanese vehicles and off-roading. It’s now available in Miami with 124,000 miles on the clock, but you wouldn’t guess based on appearance alone. Yup, this pristine machine comes with a 3.6-liter straight six diesel engine under the hood, a manual gearbox, and a part-time four-wheel drive system. Thanks to its body on frame construction, it’s pretty versatile in the rough stuff too. Indeed, this vehicle’s clean and fresh appearance may lead you to believe otherwise, but this is one beauty that can turn into a beast if needed.
The landcruisers line up is long and has been around for more than a quarter of a century, and in that time each model has pulled on the heartstrings of collectors. The J60 is a collector's favorite and finding one that has its original bones intact is a very big challenge. Present today is that elusive find that you scour the interwebs for and takes shape with this 1989 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ62. Hailing from Tehachapi, California, this classic Japanese off-roader is a rarity thanks to its originality.
The Fifty Series or J50 Toyota Land Cruiser is one of those comparatively lesser-known sorts in the United States. Produced between 1967 and 1980, it marked the start of the Station Wagon line-up of the Land Cruiser family, the ones that were slightly less hardcore than the Heavy Duty series, and more SUV-like. Today’s 1978 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ55 is a fine example that’s weathered the test of time over the years. Now, it sits proud in Chapel Hill waiting for a new owner, and rocks just 305 miles after a full frame-off restoration. If you’re a Land Cruiser fan but want something a little less mainstream, this vehicle is perfect!
Toyota’s Celica is one of those legendary Japanese cars that was widely sold in the United States too. That’s why we’re proud to present this sixth-generation, 55,000-mile 1997 Toyota Celica GT Liftback for sale from Phoenix. With its Fiesta Blue Metallic paint job, convenient liftback body style and the Fabric Sport Package, this one-owner Japanese classic even rocks some niceties such as the Premium 3-in-1 Audio System upgrade, a power moonroof and more. For those who want a Celica in their life, this 2.2-liter powered machine is ideal, especially if you didn’t learn how to drive stick, thanks to its automatic gearbox.

The sky is not the limit when going about restomodding a classic car, and while that does sound like an appealing statement, it is also scary. There are many ways you could go about turning a classic that has weathered years of existence into something that can truly take away from what it is, into something that is unrecognisable. There is a rare occasion that a restomod is done right, and we have one of those instances taking shape with this 1956 Ford F-100 Restomod.
This gray 1986 Jeep CJ-7 comes from the very last year of Jeep CJ production, a legacy that began in 1944. Willys-Overland knew that with World War II coming to a conclusion, their military Jeep sales would dry up significantly. So, they turned it into a tough and capable civilian off-roader, and the rest, as they say, is history. Produced through several iterations, the CJ finally bowed out in 1986, giving way to a nameplate that we all know and love; Wrangler. So, this 56,081-mile machine from Mount Gilead, Ohio is a piece of history and also includes a removable hardtop with the sale. Yes, one of the CJ and Wrangler’s party pieces is a removable hardtop that can be replaced with a variety of options, including full soft tops, bikini tops, or simply left topless. This machine comes with the 4.2-liter AMC straight six under the hood, paired with a 4-speed manual box and of course, four-wheel drive!
Today’s 1970 Volkswagen Type 2 Riviera Camper is the sort of simple yet dependable vehicle that you can easily take on a road trip without a second thought. It’s built on the famous Volkswagen Type 2 Microbus or Kombi platform, if its friendly green and white bodywork wasn’t enough of a calling card for its lineage. With an airy tan interior, a Riviera pop-top, rear bench-style seating and even the “Rock-N-Roll” bed option, this is definitely a digital detox machine at its finest. Plus, with the purr of its little air-cooled flat four in the background, this 34,431-mile machine from Winter Springs is not only reliable, but easy to maintain.
