Toyota's longest-running nameplate, the Land Cruiser, first appeared in 1951 and continues to boldly forge a distinctive path. Over ten million have been sold and counting. It is the off-road vehicle of choice for many and has created a following in nearly every country across the world. The United States is no exception and is considered one of Toyota's critical markets for this beloved vehicle. That's why this 1969 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 is every bit as special as it should be. Sporting an American heart, it continues to embody the freedom to travel wherever you want, whenever you want. Why not snap up this 56,000-mile vehicle and never look back? Let us tell you why.
This 1969 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 wears a very outdoor-esque light green color and rolls on all-terrain tires as you'd expect. The current owner tells us that in preparation for its outdoorsy lifestyle, there are LED lights, an ARB bumper, a winch with synthetic winch cable, and an air compressor. You'll also notice the sheet metal plates in strategic areas, side steps for aiding entry and exit to the cabin, and the requisite Land Cruiser badging. Inside, you'll come across a utilitarian cabin that contains everything you need plus little else. There are two individual seats up front, with a pair of facing benches at the rear. We're told that the seats feature new upholstery for optimal comfort. You've got the stock gauge cluster which communicates everything you need to know about the vehicle's powertrain and does so in a very clear and concise manner. The only touch of modernity is the aftermarket JVC head unit that offers USB and AUX connectivity in addition to traditional radio. This is hooked up to a set of aftermarket speakers, enabling you to have an impromptu party in the woods, although we'd recommend against making too much noise. The great outdoors must be appreciated with minimal disturbance, after all.
This 1969 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 has seen its original motor swapped for a 305ci Chevy V8, with a four-speed manual gearbox sending power to the wheels as per your selection via the transfer case. We're also informed that there's power steering, and the front brakes have been converted to discs for better stopping power.

The Toyota Land Cruiser: It’s one of the top off-roaders in the world, with a rich history dating back to 1951, making it Toyota’s longest-running nameplate. For many, a Land Cruiser is the best four-by-four, full stop. Others have made similar vehicles and continue to do so, but few can touch a properly driven and purposefully upgraded Land Cruiser in the truly rough stuff of the wilderness. Plus, the Land Cruiser has a distinctive reputation for reliability that few of its rivals can even come close to. There’s a popular saying “others may take you there but a Land Cruiser will bring you home”. So, if you’re a Land Cruiser aficionado or just looking to buy a weekend off-roader, check out this 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 Restomod from Dania Beach, Florida.

Toyota’s MR2, or Midship Runabout 2-Seater, is a small, mid-engined roadster produced by Toyota from 1985 to 2007, spanning three generations. Its rear-wheel drive configuration and excellent weight balance make the MR2 a fantastic car for keen enthusiasts who are looking to learn the techniques of performance driving, albeit at a lower level of horsepower. The car’s light weight and relatively frugal powertrains also lent themselves well towards decent fuel economy, resulting in a very sensible vehicle that was also fun. You don’t find those two words in the same sentence when talking about most cars. So, if you want something that ticks those boxes while adding a third box called “Definitive Future Classic”, check out this first-generation 1988 Toyota MR2 that’s up for sale in Los Angeles. It’s done just 36,600 miles and comes with a 1.6L supercharged engine to enjoy in it's completely original state as it left the factory .

Behold, the world’s first-ever mass-production civilian four-wheel drive car: the Willys Jeep. Derived from the military vehicle that served extensively in World War II, the Willys CJ “Civilian Jeep” was a modified, road-legal version of the battlefield hero. Aimed at the farming and industrial community, many mechanical modifications over the military version were with the goal of making it more durable and reliable. As the war was winding up, Jeep started working on the CJ, with 2 main prototype models being tested (CJ-1 and CJ-2). The CJ-2A was the first production model, which arrived in mid-1945, initially used up the last of the war-time parts stock. Once this was over, many parts such as the rear axle were changed (in this case to a stronger option). In total, over 214,000 CJ-2As were built between 1945 and 1949.
