For Sale: 1989 Toyota Land Cruiser in Concord, North Carolina

The timeless look of a vintage Land Cruiser, combined with a host of mechanical upgrades makes for a winning formula, and this 1989 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ62 LS Restomod stands as ample proof. Sure, the FJ62 represented quite an upgrade from its predecessors when it was released, but this well-crafted classic SUV takes things to an entirely new level. After undergoing a thoroughrestoration, it retains a convincingly authentic appearance, wearing its factory-correct paint and interior colors, but is now equipped with an array of top-tier mechanical components to make it a truly standout ride.

The interior boasts a blend of comfort and ruggedness that FJ62s from this era are known for, and upon closer inspection, you'll notice some nicely integrated aftermarket features that enhance functionality while creating a distinctive appearance. Judging from its fresh look, the seating both front and rear was recovered in its native beige, and there's a Tuffy locking center console positioned between the front buckets to give you plenty of storage space. Up front, the dash is free of any glaring blemishes or warpage, and the gauges are clear and easily readable. At the center, a Pioneer touchscreen-operated AM/FM stereo with both Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth connectivity has been seamlessly installed, pairing with upgraded speakers for a wealth of audio options. The addition of a backup camera makes getting in and out of tight spaces a lot easier.

Raise the hood, and you'll see that a 5.7-liter LS1 engine now sits front and center in the compartment. Having started life in a Corvette, it offers substantially more power than its predecessor and pairs with a 4-speed automatic transmission that shifts without issue. The work on display here is truly impressive. Everything looks like it belongs, and the way the mandrel-bent stainless-steel exhaust was incorporated has to be seen up close to be fully appreciated. An Old Man Emu lift kit provides this Toyota classic with an excellent stance, and the addition of a Manafre 38-gallon fuel tank gives it a range that few other SUVs can even come close to approaching. Should you find yourself mired in difficult conditions while off-roading, there's a 12,000lb. Smittybilt winch now perched on an ARB front bumper to extricate yourself.
