The 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ43 has been meticulously frame-off restored, with just 329 miles since completion.
The FJ43 is part of the iconic FJ40 series, originally developed as a military vehicle inspired by the Jeep during the Korean War. Introduced in 1960, the FJ40 series quickly became known for its exceptional off-road capabilities.
The FJ43, launched in the late 1960s, offered a longer wheelbase than the FJ40, providing additional space for passengers and cargo. This made it a popular choice for both family and commercial use. By the early 1980s, the FJ43 retained its classic boxy design, but enhancements in comfort and reliability were introduced. The 1982 model typically featured a 4.2L inline-six engine, known for its power and rugged construction, making it a favorite among off-road enthusiasts.
This particular 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ43 is finished in Royal Blue with a white leather interior and blue accents. It’s powered by a 4.2L V6 engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and a 2-speed transfer case. The restoration included Toyota parts and attention to detail, ensuring both authenticity and quality.
