1971 Toyota Land Cruiser

1971 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 â?" Trail-Ready 4x4 with F-Series Inline-6 and Warn Winch Why This Car Is Special The 1971 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 occupies a singular place in the history of four-wheel drive vehicles. While American buyers were familiar with the Jeep CJ and International Scout, the FJ40 offered something different: a body-on-frame truck built to handle sustained abuse in remote terrain without the need for constant mechanical attention. Toyota had been refining the Land Cruiser formula since the early 1950s, developing it initially for military and commercial use in rugged markets like Australia, the Middle East, and South America. By 1971, the FJ40 had earned a reputation that no amount of advertising could manufacture â?" it was simply the truck that came back when others didn't.
