By the late 1980s, the Toyota Land Cruiser FJ62 had earned a worldwide reputation that few four-wheel drives could match. Built with Toyota's legendary emphasis on durability, reliability, and mechanical simplicity, the FJ62 represented the final evolution of the iconic 60-Series Land Cruiser sold in North America. Combining modern conveniences like electronic fuel injection and an automatic transmission with traditional body-on-frame construction and solid axles, the FJ62 became equally at home navigating mountain trails, crossing continents, or serving as a dependable daily driver. Showing 178,062 miles, this Land Cruiser embodies the rugged capability and enduring legacy that have made 60-Series examples some of the most sought-after classic SUVs on the market today.

1997 Toyota Supra Turbo

Current Ask
$95,000

By the time the fourth-generation Supra arrived, Toyota had transformed the nameplate from a grand touring coupe into something far more serious. The 1997 Toyota Supra Turbo sits near the peak of that evolution, combining the now-iconic 2JZ-GTE twin-turbo inline-six with rear-wheel drive and, in this example, the sought-after 6-speed manual transmission. Showing approximately 136,725 miles, this Renaissance Red car keeps the enthusiast formula intact: twin-turbo power, a proper manual gearbox, a limited-slip differential, polished 17-inch wheels, and a removable sport roof. The Mk4 Supra earned its reputation not just because it was quick for its era, but because Toyota engineered in a level of strength and tuning potential that would eventually turn the car into a legend well beyond its original production run. This one still presents that appeal in a configuration that feels very much like the Supra enthusiasts fell in love with.

Current Ask
$205,000

The 1998 Toyota Supra has become one of the defining Japanese performance cars of its era, and this example takes the platform far beyond its original specification with a comprehensively engineered high-horsepower build. Originally configured as a naturally aspirated automatic car, it now carries a built 3.0-liter 2JZ-GTE-based powertrain, a Precision Next Gen 8085 single turbo, Haltech engine management, and a Grannas Racing T56 Magnum-F 6-speed manual conversion. The car shows approximately 74,952 total miles, with the seller reporting roughly 1,500 miles on the current build. Output has been recorded at 1,208 wheel horsepower and 861 lb-ft on a Mainline hub dyno and 1,301 wheel horsepower and 930 lb-ft on a Dynojet, with a reported 1,535 horsepower and 1,094 lb-ft at the crank. Seven boost-by-speed settings range from 10 to 42 psi, corresponding to approximately 600 to 1,300 wheel horsepower. Finished in Imperial Jade Mica with a beige leather interior, this Supra combines serious drag- and roll-racing capability with an extensive list of Powerhouse Racing, Radium Engineering, BC Racing, Grannas Racing, Hypertune, Plazmaman, Turbosmart, and Haltech hardware. The work is reported to have been completed by KM Autowerks, with tuning by Lawrence Shipman / LS Fabrication.

$32,500

This 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser TRD Special Edition 4x4 takes the FJ’s already rugged formula and pushes it considerably further with a long list of expedition-focused upgrades. Showing approximately 164,649 miles, it combines the TRD Special Edition Package and Convenience Package with ARB front and rear bumpers, a synthetic-cable winch, Safari snorkel, auxiliary lighting, additional fuel capacity, rooftop camping equipment, and a dual-battery electrical setup. Its AirTop rooftop tent, ARB refrigerator, ARB shade awning, Baja roof rack, and 38-gallon combined fuel capacity give this FJ the equipment to venture well beyond a typical weekend trail run, while the blacked-out presentation ties the build together with an appropriately purposeful look.

This 1967 Jeep CJ-5 is the kind of early Jeep that reminds you why the CJ became such an enduring off-road icon in the first place. Showing approximately 1,922 miles, this example keeps the formula wonderfully simple with a 225ci V6, 4-speed manual transmission, and a Dana 18 twin-stick transfer case sending power through a Dana 27 front axle and Dana 44 rear axle. Finished in green over a reupholstered tan interior, it combines period-correct utility with just enough upgrades to make it more usable, including manual locking hubs, a power brake booster, and a spray-lined tub. It is compact, mechanical, and purpose-built in exactly the way vintage Jeep enthusiasts tend to appreciate.

Current Ask
$39,700

The El Camino has always lived in its own lane—part muscle car, part pickup, and all attitude—and this 1964 Chevrolet El Camino Restomod leans hard into the performance side of that equation. Showing approximately 538 miles, it wears a custom Burgundy finish over a Black Procar interior and packs a 383ci stroker V8 backed by a TH400 3-speed automatic. This isn’t a lightly updated cruiser; the build reaches into the engine bay, suspension, braking system, cabin, and supporting hardware to give the first-year El Camino a much sharper, more modern personality while keeping the long-roofline-meets-pickup-bed silhouette that made these cars so memorable in the first place.

This 1964 Ford F-250 Custom Flatbed takes Ford’s classic heavy-duty pickup formula and gives it a distinctly custom personality. Showing approximately 468 miles, it combines a two-tone Mint Green and Dark Green presentation with a custom flatbed conversion, wood stake-side bed, dual rear wheels, and a 390ci V8. Power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, air conditioning, power windows, and a Bluetooth-equipped RetroSound system make it far more accommodating than its vintage work-truck roots would suggest, while the custom detailing throughout gives this F-250 plenty of show-truck character.
