Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this one-family owned,
freshly restored, 1979 Toyota FJ43 for your consideration. This
Land Cruiser comes in a new red paint job complemented by a new
black interior. Powering this sand machine is a 4.2 Liter inline 6
paired to a stout 4-speed manual transmission. The FJ43 comes with
newer Maxxis Desertmax tires. This truck was ordered new by the
owner's family in Qatar where the FJ43 was used on the family farm
until it was parked for 15 years. The family wanted to get the FJ
running again and completed a full frame-off restoration just a
couple of years ago. They brought the truck to the US when they
moved here and have only put 24 miles on it since the restoration.
Drive this one out of our showroom or have us assist with shipping
it to you anywhere in the United States! Don't hesitate to give us

After achieving an international reputation with the J2/J3, Toyota
embarked on a redesign process that resulted in an iconic and
memorable look that would define Land Cruiser for the next two
decades. Initially, the J4 simply offered a slightly different
wheelbase than the previous production model. By the end of the
production run, the J4 models boasted four different wheelbase
lengths. There was a "short" length, similar to the original model
and typically sporting a soft top. The "medium" model was used for
a short-lived station wagon model that was replaced by a different
model after a few years. The "long" wheelbase model also had a
short life as it was supplanted by the wildly popular "super long"
wheelbase. The "super long" started out as a troop transport, but
became popular in rural areas throughout Africa, Australia, the
Americas, and Asia, where they were used for camping, public
transportation, and more. Most people who fell in love with the
Land Cruiser fell in love with a J4.
