Overview of 1974 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 For Sale by Owner

There’s just something about those Land Cruisers from the early '70s with their traditional body-on-frame design and pure utilitarian demeanor. There are no gizmos or plastic to hide anything away, and they are tastefully equipped with rugged accessories. 1960 saw the release of the first Land Cruiser FJ40, and until 2001, improved models were produced. What we have here is a fully rebuilt example of a 1974 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 with just 4,238 miles on it since the build. Currently located in Mississippi, this FJ40 is your chance to get your hands on a nostalgic and potent off-roader.

Exterior and Interior

According to reports, the restoration was done before the current owner purchased this 1974 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. Wearing a gray exterior paint coat, this FJ40 is protected with custom tube bumpers and a custom roll cage. Front and rear bumpers are mounted with aux lights and you get LED turn signals, brake lights, and H4 Conversion headlights. Reportedly, this FJ40 had new suspension at the time of build that consists of Rancho shocks and bushings upgraded to polyurethane. It rides on XD 17" wheels that are shod in Nitto 33" tires. Behind these wheels is a powerful braking system comprised of power disc brakes with vented discs, four-piston calipers up front, and stainless steel braided brake lines. The side steps featuring a Line-X bedliner make it easier to climb into the exposed interior, which is fitted with leather-reclining front seats and reupholstered rear jump seats. The dash is adorned with Auto Meter gauges and a 7-inch DVD navigation system. The current owner has also added a JL Audio setup and a lockable custom center console to complete this build.

Engine

This 1974 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 enjoys a rebuilt Chevy 350ci V8 that is fitted with throttle body fuel injection to improve performance. This, together with a Flowmaster exhaust, results in a vigorous off-roader that puts out a mighty roar. The powerhouse utilizes a high amp alternator and power steering that are driven by a new serpentine belt system. It sends power to the wheels via a Toyota 4-speed manual transmission, and it is claimed that both transmission and transfer cases were rebuilt during the build.

The 2002 Toyota MR2 Spyder is a lightweight, mid-engine roadster built around a simple formula that enthusiasts still appreciate today: low weight, rear-wheel drive, a manual gearbox, and open-top driving. Showing approximately 48,326 miles, this example is finished in the especially eye-catching Electric Green Mica and pairs its 1.8L naturally aspirated inline-four with a 5-speed manual transmission. It also benefits from a number of enthusiast-oriented upgrades, including 15-inch Koenig Helium wheels, stainless steel headers, a MagnaFlow Y-pipe and catalytic converter, and an HKS performance exhaust, giving this MR2 a more distinctive look and sound while retaining the basic character that made the third-generation MR2 such an engaging sports car.

PENDING SALE
$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.
