Engine
If you were to find yourself driving away from a Tyrannosaurus Rex running toward you at full force, this 1989 Toyota Land Cruiser sure is the right place to be. Pop open the hood, and you won't find a Japanese 6-cylinder but a good old GM 5.3L Vortec V8 under the hood pushing an easy 300+ horses. While the engine swap is a good enough upgrade, you also get an upgraded cone air filter for better performance. Get off the main roads and into the thick jungle with this Land Cruiser’s excellent 4 wheel drive system getting its power from an automatic gearbox.
Inspection
The Toyota Land Cruiser is Toyota’s longest-produced and arguably most popular model. This iconic 4x4 has reached nearly every spot on the globe, and is widely renowned for its toughness, capability and reliability. It’s no surprise that Land Cruisers can be seen in a variety of wilderness settings, on scientific expeditions, and even in the capable hands of adventurers. One of the series’ most cherished examples is the J40. Made between 1960 and 1984, there were J40s being built in Brazil as recently as 2001! 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. Heck, when today’s newfangled EVs conk out in a decade or two, this FJ40 will still chug on as long as there’s dino juice to feed it.
