Background Story of this 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser

Overview of 1981 Toyota Land Cruiser For Sale by Owner

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.

Exterior and Interior

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.

Engine

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.

1978 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ55

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$48,503
SOLD

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!

The Toyota Land Cruiser has stood as a symbol of rugged dependability since its debut in 1951, evolving into a vehicle equally capable on the trail and in the city.

1992 Toyota Supra Turbo

PENDING SALE
$22,999

The Toyota Supra is a legend of JDM circles, and gained a lot of popularity in the United States too. This was primarily the fourth generation Supra, with its appearance in The Fast And The Furious franchise. But there are Supras from earlier generations that are just as cool, desirable, fast, and fun to drive. Take the third generation, from which this 1992 Toyota Supra MkIII Turbo hails. It’s got pop-up headlamps and some cars came with removable targa roofs! Suffice to say, this 50,750-mile example from Rochester, Minnesota does have those neat features, and a turbocharged straight six under the hood. No, it’s not a 2JZ-GTE, but something that was considered fearsome back in its day.

PENDING SALE
$44,999

One of America’s best-selling cars, the Toyota Camry midsize family sedan has carved out a name for itself, and one of sensibility. For those who seek no-nonsense family motoring with excellent reliability and the right mix of features and practicality, the Camry is the de facto choice. That’s why you won’t find a Camry on sale very often, but when you do, it’s always wise to act with speed. Take this 28,000-mile 2019 Toyota Camry XSE from Brooklyn as a prime example. Its low mileage makes it basically brand-new, while its got a host of custom carbon fiber bits and new wheels to jazz up its appearance. Inside, it still remains a practical and well-equipped family car with plenty of space and tech toys to keep you satisfied. That’s why you should buy it without a second thought!

1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod

PENDING SALE
$49,989

The first new Chevy truck to come out since World War II ended, the Advance Design era ran between 1947 and 1955. It replaced the older AK series and was bigger, stronger and sleeker in design. The range started with the 3100 half-tonner, and went on through the one-ton 3800, and into chassis cabs and medium-duty trucks. Now, the Advance Design has found some fame as a restomod platform. That’s what we have here, a 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod from Smithville, Texas. This truck has undergone a full makeover, including a new 396ci V8, a 4-speed automatic gearbox, air conditioning and much more. If you want to rock and roll around in something different to your typical classic car, this is a fine option to consider.

1958 Jeep CJ-5

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$26,999

Are you the sort of person who prefers a classic off-roader rather than a car? Do you want your classic off-roader to have real off-roading chops, a fine legacy of dependability and come from a well-known American brand? If so, this 1958 Jeep CJ-5 is perfect. Hailing from the illustrious Jeep CJ – that’s Civilian Jeep – legacy, the CJ was created shortly after World War II ended. Willys-Overland, the ones behind the popular Military Jeep knew that without war, their main customer wouldn’t be buying nearly as many vehicles from them. So, they switched gears and made the Jeep CJ, a tough, no-nonsense off-roader aimed at farmers and tradespersons who needed a simple vehicle with guts and four-wheel drive. This vehicle comes from the CJ-5 era which ran between 1954 and 1983. With its naturally aspirated V6, manual gearbox and aftermarket exhaust system, this 1958 Jeep CJ-5 has only done 167 miles since its thorough makeover.

1978 Jeep CJ-5

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,999

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.
