The Toyota Land Cruiser HJ45 is a diesel powered, long wheel-base variant of the 40 series, available in 'Troopy' and Pickup body styles, from the early 70's until 1980. The HJ45 variants are powered by a 3.6 liter, 6 cyl. Toyota H diesel motor. Output is 95 PS (70 kW) at 3,600 rpm.
In many parts of South America, the Toyota J-series Land Cruiser is still a ubiquitous off-roader, particularly in rural and remote areas. The styling of the J-series still carried many of the hallmarks of the Jeeps that it was based on, and the similarities were more than skin deep.
Toyota released three major wheelbases on their original Land Cruisers, the J40, the J43, and the J45 – the latter of which proved exceedingly popular with farmers due to its load carrying capacity and its bulletproof drive-train.
