This is one of the most unique 4 x 4´s in the USA. Very rare, and proven tough, the Patrol was Nissan´s entry in the early battle for 4 x 4 supremacy over 50 years ago. The 60 series Patrol (1959 – 1980) earned its reputation as one of the world´s toughest 4 x 4´s by conquering the harshest...
Hi everyone, I finally have a running Land Cruiser again. It's a long story involving a thrown rod and an engine swap (2f for 2f) but here I am. One thing that I have found that is different right now is that I have a terrible gas odor in the cab and eine compartment. I did some inspecting and...
So finally bought a 78 fj40 back in December (I have yet to tell my wife and have been storing it at a friends).
The last owner did a pretty lame spray job on it, so I dropped it off to my local body shop to someone I've known for 5 years.
Sadly to say the clutch had no pressure and when we...
I have a customer in CA wanting to purchase a 1978 FJ40 and I believe all the emission equipment is present on the truck however being in a state where they do not have smog tests I don't have the expertise to offer regarding "IF" the truck will be able to pass smog in CA.
Attached are a couple...
Looking for a tub I'm mounting it on a 78' chassis. Condition prefered to be cancer free I don't mind surface rust, gives me something to work on. Also don't mind if the body is a little bent up. Just PM me with what you got and we can talk.
Thanks for your time,
Bryce

Howdy all. I am helping a family friend sell his 1978 FJ55 Piggy. He is 17 and this is the first rebuild/project vehicle for him, but after a year and a half (as well as an accident), he is ready to move into something a little more manageable for his lifestyle as a working student. He and...

Tempting. They 2 others that look pretty clean as well. Is it really worth 34K?
We just finished this '78 and she sure is nice. She is a born and raised, dry Wyoming truck. She has sat for the last 10+ years as the clutch went out and never got fixed. With a little time, money and patience she has grown to be quite the eye catcher. Here's what was done.

Since I was a kid, I had always been in love with the original Toyota Landcruiser body style; I always said I would get one when I was older. Several years ago, my dream came true; I found one out in Los Angeles, and flew out there with my very supportive wife to pick it up. We drove it across...
