Vehicle Description
This 1970 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser is the perfect mix of vintage
and new. After all, this classic 4x4 can still live up to its
go-anywhere reputation today thanks to the right investments that
added more ability while still keeping the best of the original
attitude.
One look at this 4x4 and you just want to go on an expedition.
After all, the bronze paint looks like someone added a healthy dose
of metallic to your favorite safari khakis. The black roof, black
rear bumpers, and black grille give this a subtle two-tone. The
black also represents some of the best upgrades to keep this Land
Cruiser a true go-anywhere machine. It starts up front with the
steel bumper with Reese tow hitch and winch. And there's even a
proper luggage rack finished in black. And there's also plenty of
LED lights ready to always show you the way forward.
Inside are some nice upgrades, like the newer seating, including
the high-back buckets up front. These are finished in a durable
vinyl, and you also have well-done roll bar. This is ideal, because
remember, the full hardtop package is removable. So you can always
opt to open up your 4x4 experience with the world. There are even
provisions for air conditioning if you decide you need that in
nature. The classic thin and grippy steering wheel feels great in
your hands. As you gaze over the dash, everything from the
speedometer and to the four-wheel-drive instructions are correct
and crisp. And the newer auxiliary gauge trio is always a handy
addition.
Toyota's trusty and torquey 3.9-liter inline-six is the backbone of
the Land Cruiser's tough-as-nails reputation. Just like the rest of
this vehicle, the motor looks like there have been some nice
investments while also remaining period-correct. This attitude is
reinforced the moment you feel it fire up easily and idle smoothly.
The upgraded four-speed manual transmission gives you full control
over this go-anywhere machine, and the power steering gives this a
confident feeling on the road. The upgraded Pacer polished alloys
have Firestone Destination tires with a deep tread. They work with
the four-wheel drive system to remind you why this was the choice
for so many explorers.
The FJ40 is a true legend, and this one delivers on the look and
capability while also being easy to drive around town. It's the
total package, and it's ready to turn heads right now. Call
