1981 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 5-Speed

Refinished in red with a white top over a reupholstered tan interior, the truck is powered by a transplanted GM 350ci V8 mated to an FJ80-sourced five-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The body was repainted in red with a white top, and added exterior features include LED headlights and taillights, a painted black grille with matching bumpers, an Ecotechne roof rack, and a snorkel. Black-painted 16? steel wheels with manual front lockers and red simulated beadlock rings are wrapped in 315/75 BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tires including a full-size spare. The front buckets and rear inward-facing jump seats have been re-covered in tan upholstery with matching door panels and dashboard padding over replacement black flooring. A black three-spoke steering wheel frames instruments including a 160-km/h speedometer. Power is routed to the rear or all four wheels via an FJ80-sourced five-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Underbody frame and suspension components have been repainted in black. Additional photos of the underside are provided in the gallery. Filed under: fj, fj 40, fj-40.
