Toyota’s Land Cruiser sport utility vehicle is the longest-lived model in the company’s history. The first, developed from Jeep specifications, went into production in 1951. The best-known model, the FJ40, dates from 1960. From then to 1984, more than a million were built. This soft-top, 4x4 Land Cruiser has recently had a frame-off restoration, with every effort to keep the vehicle within original specifications. The factory F, inline six-cylinder and three-speed manual transmission were rebuilt. The exterior, tub and floors were painted in factory code matching Fashion Green. White OEM running boards are reported to be an exact factory match down to the replica Pyramid vinyl for traction. The interior is finished in orange, with a custom top made from OEM khaki duck canvas. Included with the vehicle is what is reported to be an ultra-rare and expensive factory original toolkit, with some of the tools are still wrapped in plastic. No expense was spared in this restoration, making sure this FJ40 looks and performs the same way it did when it rolled off the showroom floor.
