1969 Model Year Toyota FJ40 Diesel Swap
The Toyota Land Cruiser has gained a fearsome reputation as an utterly reliable and capable vehicle that can get you where you want to go, and back home too. Toyota’s longest-running nameplate, the Land Cruiser was born in 1951 and still continues to sell strongly. It’s been through a myriad of generations, all of them with a faithful fan community, which is why we’re sure that this 1969 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 will be snapped up soon. Coming to you with just 498 miles after a powertrain swap, it embodies the very spirit of a Land Cruiser and is a fantastic vehicle for getting lost in the great outdoors and embarking on a total digital disconnect. The seller reports that the vehicle was purchased with most of the work already done.
The J40 series was produced from 1960 to 1984, but Toyota in Brazil continued to produce it all the way up to 2001! Dressed in a red paintwork that the seller reports to be a repaint at some point in this vehicle’s lifetime, it rolls on a set of lovely contrasting white steelies, wrapped in Toyo Open Country A/T tires, including the spare wheel. The Toyota and Land Cruiser badges are present, and this vehicle just exudes charm and simplicity that you can’t find these days. A new lift gate handle has been reportedly installed too. Turn your attention to the undercarriage and it’s in pristine order as well. Step aboard the black interior that the seller reports to have been recovered at some point, and you’ll find two individual front seats, plus two facing benches at the rear. While this means that six could possibly travel in this Land Cruiser, a more comfortable complement of occupants would be four adults, or two adults and four children at most. Sporting white details, the red dash and door cards look in great condition, as do the dials. You’d be hard-pressed to find a vehicle of this age in such condition. We did mention digital disconnect, and there’s nothing digital to be found in this cabin, heck, there isn’t even an old-school push-button radio. It’s all up to you, really. Engage in conversation with others, or bring a Bluetooth speaker on board if you really must have music.
This 1969 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 has received a powertrain upgrade in the shape of an H-series in-line six diesel engine installed up front. Although we are not told the exact spec, our detective work reveals that the engine may displace 3.6L, granting it outputs of 94hp and 159lb-ft as it’s non-turbo. Nevertheless, these are legendarily sturdy engines, and this one has been straight piped too, so you will really hear that diesel roar. Drive goes to all four wheels via a three-speed manual transmission and transfer case offering high and low ranges. The seller reports to have installed a new power steering pump.
The Fifty Series or J50 Toyota Land Cruiser is one of those comparatively lesser-known sorts in the United States. Produced between 1967 and 1980, it marked the start of the Station Wagon line-up of the Land Cruiser family, the ones that were slightly less hardcore than the Heavy Duty series, and more SUV-like. Today’s 1978 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ55 is a fine example that’s weathered the test of time over the years. Now, it sits proud in Chapel Hill waiting for a new owner, and rocks just 305 miles after a full frame-off restoration. If you’re a Land Cruiser fan but want something a little less mainstream, this vehicle is perfect!
Off-roading is a task that's best done when behind the wheel of a machine that has proven itself on the proving grounds, that's off the beaten path. There are a handful of nameplates that bring the right look to stand out and reliability that ensures you'll get where you're going. Present today is an example from one of off-road's finest alums, and it takes shape with this 1987 Toyota Land Cruiser HJ61. With a reported 94,252 miles on its odometer, this Japanese off-roading powerhouse is a machine that allows you to explore the great outdoors in style and confidence, while also being a savvy investment for the years to come.
The Toyota Land Cruiser has stood as a symbol of rugged dependability since its debut in 1951, evolving into a vehicle equally capable on the trail and in the city. This 2021 Land Cruiser, part of the J200 series, represents the culmination of that legacy—offering a 5.7L V8 with 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque, an 8-speed automatic, and full-time 4WD with A-TRAC and a Torsen locking limited-slip center differential. Backed by Toyota’s Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS), Multi-Terrain Select, and Crawl Control, it is engineered to conquer any environment with ease. Luxury isn’t overlooked, with a premium 14-speaker JBL audio system, 9-inch touchscreen with navigation, 4-zone climate control, ventilated and heated leather-trimmed seats, and a heated leather steering wheel. Safety features such as Toyota Safety Sense P, blind spot monitoring, and trailer sway control ensure peace of mind. Showing just over 12,000 miles, this Land Cruiser blends iconic off-road heritage with modern luxury—making it one of the most desirable SUVs on the road today.
A browse through our website and you are treated to a treasure trove of machinery geared for infinite smiles per gallon. Be it a muscle car to rocket down a drag strip, an off-roader that can power through anything, or maybe even a luxury cruiser that's best experienced from the back seat, there is something for everyone. While all that is nice, what if you wanted a daily that also can be an interesting machine, one that sparks a conversation but also ferries you from place to place with reliability that doesn't miss a beat? If this is you, you're at the right place. Present today is this 1984 Toyota Tercel with under 50,000 miles on its odometer. This low-mileage example has what it takes to be a daily driver or even a museum piece.
The Toyota Supra is a legend of JDM circles, and gained a lot of popularity in the United States too. This was primarily the fourth generation Supra, with its appearance in The Fast And The Furious franchise. But there are Supras from earlier generations that are just as cool, desirable, fast, and fun to drive. Take the third generation, from which this 1992 Toyota Supra MkIII Turbo hails. It’s got pop-up headlamps and some cars came with removable targa roofs! Suffice to say, this 50,750-mile example from Rochester, Minnesota does have those neat features, and a turbocharged straight six under the hood. No, it’s not a 2JZ-GTE, but something that was considered fearsome back in its day.
One of America’s best-selling cars, the Toyota Camry midsize family sedan has carved out a name for itself, and one of sensibility. For those who seek no-nonsense family motoring with excellent reliability and the right mix of features and practicality, the Camry is the de facto choice. That’s why you won’t find a Camry on sale very often, but when you do, it’s always wise to act with speed. Take this 28,000-mile 2019 Toyota Camry XSE from Brooklyn as a prime example. Its low mileage makes it basically brand-new, while its got a host of custom carbon fiber bits and new wheels to jazz up its appearance. Inside, it still remains a practical and well-equipped family car with plenty of space and tech toys to keep you satisfied. That’s why you should buy it without a second thought!
