1979 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser Restored

Location: Dallas, Texas

Why It's Curated: This 1979 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser is for sale in Dallas, Tx. This truck has undergone a complete frame-off restoration and tasteful modernization, blending the iconic Land Cruiser look with real-world drivability and capability. Finished in a striking gold exterior over an orange interior, it turns heads while delivering serious performance thanks to a later-model rebuilt 2F inline-six engine, a 5-speed manual transmission, and triple locking differentials. 

The current build has only 300 miles since completion and includes key upgrades like power steering, power brakes, air conditioning, and a backup camera—creature comforts that make this vintage rig far more usable without sacrificing its rugged charm.

This isn’t just a restoration—it’s a purpose-built FJ ready for weekend getaways, trail runs, and top-down summer drives. Whether you're cruising to the ranch or pitching a tent in the mountains, it’s the kind of 4x4 that makes the journey as memorable as the destination.
