Hey all,

Been on the outside looking in on the community for some time and had no real reasons to post/contribute, and definitely wanted to change that. Grew up knowing someone who had one of these and always wanted one.

Prefer round headlight look, but the square headlights are great too. Trying to avoid an automatic, seen a few of those I didn't jump on.

Best land cruiser would probably be a HJ61, but HJ60 would be perfect tool. Diesel sound is pretty badass.

Maybe something base lined, worked on and in good shape, or a recent barn find that needs to be built up. Throw me some suggestions?

For Sale Thread 'NorCal: 89 HJ61'

Feb 1, 2026

Bought this for my wife a little over a year ago but she blames me for this choice and she originally wanted an FJ60 like our previous one. Now she’s wanting a brand new BMW M2 so this is on the chopping block. Hell, I might even sell my FD and Triumph at this point…

Bought this from @hdj8081 and he can provide more details previous to our ownership. Since I’ve purchased we changed the following:

New KO3 tires
New O.E. brass/copper rad (imported from Middle East) and thermostat
New heater hoses kit from terrain tamer
New Morimito sealed beam headlights (brighter and a shaper...

I know of a FJ60 with a 5.3 and NV4500 swap with original paint and patina not currently listed anywhere for sale here in CO for $30k. I saw it yesterday when I was picking up some 45 parts from the seller. It’s a sweet 60 and the swap was done extremely well. I’ve done an LS swap myself so I do know what I was looking at.

I wouldn’t hesitate to drive it back to Blacksburg.

@lollertron Are you a SCLC member?

I'm looking for something that hadn't been modified too much, to get a feel for the truck before knowing what I wanted to modify/do work to. Looking for something *mostly* original. I already have a KEI truck, so going slow isn't too big of an issue for me. Probably should have put that in the beginning.

I'm not a member, wasn't aware of any groups here. I'm going to see about joining/keeping an eye out there. Thanks for putting me in that direction!

I have a JDM HJ61 VX Limited with 5 speed, cable lockers, and PTO winch I am thinking of parting with-has just 143,265 kilometers on the odometer-that's 88,824 miles. $45k. All original.

Hello,
I'm John, I currently own an FJ60 with a 12Ht mated to an H55f. I call it Violet Beauregard. I bought it as a package deal when I bought my wife's '97 triple locked. (Not pictured)
The 1984 FJ60 is a great truck, and it'd be fun to keep and update, but my heart lies with the 80 series. Beauregard has all the gubbins folks may be looking for:
5" Alcan SUA lift
15"x8" steel wheels with 2.5" backspacing
ARB front bumper (old style with all the oxidation but no rust)
1982 8274 Warn winch (Some people swear by these old bastard winches; I think it's US made in Oregon, not the new Chinese Warn stuff)
Solid Rock Off-Road Rear Bumper -...tire carrier, two jerry can carrier, hi-lift jack carrier, hitch, rear quarter panel protection (modified by Metal Tech)
Solid Rock Off-Road Sliders
Notched Cross-member by Metal Tech
Safari Snorkel
Longfield's 30-spline superaxles
Full Float rear axle
Poly Performance chromoly rear axles
4x4 labs six stud 1-ton steering
4.11 diffs
Front ARB Locker with large ARB compressor
Rear Aussie Locker
Corbeau Baja RS driver seat
Yaesu FT-2800 FM Transceiver, hatch mounted Comet sbb1-nmo
Tuffy Console
A Long Range America 40 Gallon extra-sized fuel cell.

It's all there, but I haven't the time or inclination to make it fancy. Chances are, if I dive into it, you might not like what I've done. So I've got this true diamond in the rough. All the interior is removed, most of it is in the back. It's registered and passed DEQ in Oregon, and I'm having ghe registration updated to include the TDi. It's a 12Ht powered monster that could roll over most anything, and thanks to the enormous fuel cell, it'll pass a station or two before returning for more dinosaur bones.

I'd like $20,000 for it. You could probably drive it home, but I'd suggest a trailer because I hate the Corbeau drivers seat. The driver's door has a bum lock.

Oregon rig, no penetrating rust. DM for info.

I would take bjorns but if you want something for less $ and WAY more work I have a 60 for sale. I am currently trying to sell it with the original 2f BUT I do have a 3b with h55 out of a 70 series that I could include with it for a different price.
My 60

I've got mine listed.
