The Toyota Land Cruiser has forged a reputation as a formidable off-roader, and it’s done so in nearly all countries where it is, or has been sold. Introduced in 1948, it’s Toyota’s longest-running badge, and today, is available in multiple forms. Along the way, there have been many iconic Land Cruisers, and today’s 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 comes from the J40 era. Made between 1960 and 1984, the J40 also saw production in Brazil, from 1968 until 2001. With its timeless styling, simplistic yet capable mechanicals and formidable off-road chops, the J40 is the default choice for many who want to go anywhere that a road doesn’t exist. Today’s 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 is no different, but it’s got a rather tasty surprise under the hood. Read on to find out more.
At the outset, this 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 looks menacing with its high-riding stance and black paint job. The vehicle has received aftermarket halogen headlamps and a roof rack sits atop its already lofty roof. Then we get to the wheels and tires of this machine, which are a set of 17-inch beadlock units wrapped in LT265/70 M/T Trail Grappler tires from Nitto. Atop the roof rack lie some more lights for illuminating the area ahead when needed. The interior of this 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 is largely stock, with its black leather seating enjoying some orange contrast stitching. There are two seats up front, and two facing benches in the rear. This allows a total of six adults to travel with ease within this 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. We also see an air conditioning system and an upgraded sound system to make trail-bashing or city cruising more pleasing.
The star of the show that moves this 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 is a potent 2.8-liter Cummins turbodiesel. Paired with an automatic transmission, it offers a great blend of driving ease and effortless torque across any terrain. As you’d expect, the vehicle is four-wheel drive with a two-speed transfer case. So, you need not worry about roads wherever you’re planning to go.
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!

Over here these days, Toyota pickup trucks are typically the Tacoma or the Tundra. But in much of the rest of the world, the Toyota Hilux reigns supreme. Produced since March 1968, the Hilux was actually sold as the Toyota Pickup in the United States between 1972 and 1995, when it was a compact pickup truck. Now, it’s a mid-size pickup truck and has always used a body-on-frame construction method. The Hilux is famous for being exceptionally tough, and basically unkillable. Jeremy Clarkson tried to kill one on Top Gear and failed; even with a bent frame and myriad damage, the truck could still move under its own power. Today, we have a 1978 Toyota Hilux RN28L for sale from Fremont, California, with over 70,000 miles on the clock. It’s a second-generation example that appears to have been used quite carefully, making it a nice little classic to add to your collection.

Jeep’s CJ series of off-roaders is what gave rise to the Wrangler today. You can see the design similarities between the old and the new, despite the Wrangler’s notably larger size, plusher cabin, more powerful engine, etc. That iconic face remains largely intact, with the famous seven-bar grille signifying that the vehicle wearing it is capable of great off-road feats. The CJ series came about in 1944, when Willys-Overland knew that they had to switch to the civilian market to survive. World War II was ending, and the military wouldn’t be needing Jeeps like cigarettes anymore. So, the CJ was born, standing for Civilian Jeep. It was made to live a tough life in the fields of agriculture, construction, mining, manufacturing and other rough-and-tumble industries. Jeep knew that the civilian variant would have a lifespan in years or even decades, not months or weeks like its battleship brethren. Hence, the CJ is exceptionally well-built, and many survive to this day. This 1978 Jeep CJ-5 from Melbourne, Florida is proof of that quality.
