Rescue Me: 1986 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60


Production of the FJ60 generation Land Cruiser started in 1980 when it replaced the FJ50 version that had been in production since 1967.  It was a similarly off-road capable vehicle as its predecessor, but added much appreciated creature comforts like air conditioning and upgraded interior quality, and they are insanely rugged monsters if you have a little mechnical know-how.  Find this 1986 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 offered for $4500 in Windsor, CA via craigslist.  Tip from FuelTruck.

Retro Crushing: Flex "Rounding Retrofit 60 Face" 1993 Toyota Land Cruiser

Every once in a rising sun, I find myself admiring the 80 series Toyota Land Cruiser. This is the generation built from 1991-1997 that retained the old formula of large cast iron inline six under the hood coupled to solid axles front and rear, and it was the most evolved version of that species that was ever sold in the US, with a whole new range of engines, coil spring / linkage suspension, and some luxury features. However, I also find myself (a bit less often) admiring and pining for the classic lines of the preceding 1980s Cruiser, known as the 60 series. But what if you could have both? That's where the Japanese aftermarket steps in. Find this "Flexcustom Wonder" 1993 Toyota Land Cruiser for sale in Japan for ¥2,198,000 (about $18,300 today) via flexnet.co.jp.

Roots: 1983 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60


Nothing says getting back to your roots like taking your heavily optioned luxury SUV and liberating it from that joy killing thing called luxury by removing things like leather seats, air conditioning, doors, roof, side glass, et cetera.  To make a long story short, somebody took this next Toyota Land Cruiser and turned it into a Jeep!  Find this 1983 Toyota Landcruiser FJ60 offered for $5,500 in Colchester, IL.

10k: Minty Clean Crusher: 1987 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60

The Toyota Land Cruiser is one of those iconic off-road machines that is well known for its boulder climbing abilities as well as its ability to run for miles with only basic maintenance.  The FJ60 version was sold from 1980 to 1987; a rugged vehicle and it seems that many have been converted into Chevy V8 powered monsters or covered in parking lot dings and baby vomit.  Today we feature an example that is total free from dings/dents/detritus offered at a reasonable price.  Find this 1987 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 currently bidding for $9,111 on ebay with 2 days to go, located in Tampa, FL.
