Toyota’s popular Land Cruiser is one of the most popular off-roaders in the world. If you really delve into the history of the Land Cruiser, you’ll find several Series, and some Series have been sold concurrently. Then, you’ve got the Land Cruiser Prado line-up as well as the Land Cruiser line-up. For example, today’s 1989 Toyota Land Cruiser is a BJ73, which means it comes from the J70 lineup of 1981, also called the 70 Series. However, the 70 Series is still made to this day for some markets. Yes, in countries like Australia, for example, you can buy a brand-new, 2025-model-year 70-Series, albeit with several modern features and a distinctively modern powertrain. Meanwhile, this 1989 Toyota Land Cruiser is far more utilitarian and simplistic, with its older, indirect injection diesel engine. This two-door short-wheelbase machine currently resides in West Palm Beach, Florida, and has covered 176,001 miles to date. If that seems high, it’s a walk in the park for a Land Cruiser. So, why not pick up this tough machine as your weekend getaway machine?

With its iconic style and simplistic mechanicals, it’s incredibly easy to fix a J40 in the field if it does go wrong – which, isn’t very often, let us tell you. That’s why you’ll encounter J40s doing yeoman service in various parts of the world where today’s SUVs would simply cry and throw up myriad error messages on their delicate digital screens. So, if you’re an adventurer with an eager heart and a desire to explore our country, this 1978 Toyota Land Cruiser BJ40 is a great companion. It’s recently received a host of new parts and awaits your consideration in Miami, Florida.
