You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who hasn’t heard of the Toyota Land Cruiser. Japan’s finest off-roader ever made, the Land Cruiser has been around for over seventy years. It’s forged a reputation for uncompromising off-road capabilities, and has since gained a comfortable and luxurious persona too. One of the series’ iconic models is the J40, which was built between 1960 and 1984. Such was its popularity that the J40 gained a second life in Brazil, known as the Bandeirante and being made there from 1968 to 2001. Naturally, we got plenty of Land Cruiser goodness in the United States too. Take this 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 Restomod as a prime example. It’s a two-door pickup truck and has received a full restoration, plus resto-modding to turn it into what you see here. If it speaks your name, you’d better act quick to snap up this one-of-a-kind beauty.
Painted in a straight gray color, this 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 Restomod’s iconic design does all the talking, and looks highly relevant even in 2024. The vehicle sports an ARB deluxe bumper with a WARN Evo 8 winch. Then, it rolls on a set of Mickey Thompson wheels and proper tires for off-roading. At the rear, a stainless steel exhaust system ensures good looks and a great soundtrack. The interior of this 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 Restomod features new seats upholstered in red leather, and a Dakota Digital analog gauge cluster neatly mounted within the original factory gauge pod in the dashboard. The dashboard too has gained a two-tone color theme of red and gray. A Vintage Air AC unit has been added for comfort during hot days, and there’s a center console with cup holders too. You’ll also note a set of switches for the retrofitted power windows.
This 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ45 Restomod now has a new Toyota 1FZ 4.5-liter in-line six-cylinder engine under the hood with just 500 miles on it. It’s paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox and drives all four wheels when needed. Meanwhile, Australian ARB Old Man Emu suspension has been installed.

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?
If you want a classic Toyota Land Cruiser that’s still able to dish it out in spades when the road disappears, you can’t go amiss by selecting a J40 variant. The J40 era was made between 1960 and 1984, but production continued in Brazil until 2001. 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.

The J40’s iconic design and spartan but capable mechanicals make it a cult favorite. So here’s a 1964 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 for sale, with a mere 64,639 miles traveled. It’s a great addition to your garage for those trips into the great outdoors, as well as a classic that will only appreciate in value as time goes by.

Toyota’s Tacoma has been challenging in the midsize pickup truck category for thirty years. Introduced in 1995, the Tacoma is now on the fourth generation and continues to offer that signature Toyota blend of sturdy build quality, exceptional capability and solid reliability. Of course, you can also get your hands on hardcore variants from TRD. Today, we’ve got a very special third-generation Tacoma, in the shape of this 30,383-mile 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road from North Carolina. Join us as we take you through this truck’s special features and you’ll soon want to take it home.
The Toyota Tundra is Toyota’s take on the full-size pickup truck in America. Introduced in 1999, the Tundra is now a well-established contender in a pool of choices that includes the Ford F-150, RAM 1500 and Chevrolet Silverado 1500. In case you didn’t know, the Tundra is the first Japanese automaker’s full-size pickup truck to be built in North America. Fitting, then, that we’ve got a rather butch second-generation 2019 Toyota Tundra SR5 for sale in Daytona Beach, Florida, with 80,208 miles on the odometer. This truck could be your next family vehicle, as it’s well suited for rough-and-tumble use.
Chevy’s C/K Series debuted in 1960 and is widely regarded as one of the most influential in pickup truck circles. The entry-level was the C10/K10 variant, which denoted a half-ton truck. If you’re wondering why there are C-trucks and K-trucks, let us enlighten you. C trucks are rear-wheel drive, while K trucks have four-wheel drive. This is the key difference between the two. So, today’s 1984 Chevrolet K10 is a four-wheel drive variant from the third generation of Chevy C/K series trucks, and a half-ton truck at that. However, this North Carolina-based machine is much more than that, having received some refreshments and upgrades. Read on to discover more, and you might find plenty of reasons to sign on the dotted line and take this truck home.
Ford’s popular F-Series that is available today and in the fourteenth generation, was born in 1948. It was aimed at mobilizing American small businessholders, farmers and those engaged in trade. For the first generation, the range started with the F-1 which was a half-ton pickup truck. It had a 6.5-foot cargo bed, and sat at just 189 inches long; shorter than many full-size luxury cars of today. Over time, the F-1 has become a cherished classic and a symbol of American freedom – because it allowed you to take your family to market, with your goods for sale in the truck bed. This particular 1950 Ford F-1 Custom Build is a little different, as it’s a restomod with a host of upgrades. Residing in California and having just 13,367 miles since its rebuild, this truck is ideal for someone who wants classic style tastefully combined with modern features and performance.
The Ford F-Series came in 1948, and has continued uninterrupted to this day. Fourteen generations have been made, and it’s one of the longest-running nameplates in American automotive history. This 1956 Ford F-100 comes from the second generation of the series and has been subjected to a full frame-off restoration effort. With a V8 and plenty of attention paid to bring it to near-factory condition, this is a great classic truck for the discerning collector, as well as first-time collector alike. Since it’s seen just 328 miles of driving post-restoration, you’ll basically be its first owner, in a way!
