  • In this video I take you on a tour of my 1978 Toyota FJ40 with the Cummins R2.8 Turbo Diesel. In this, my third and probably final FJ40 build, I tried to stay true to the Heritage of the FJ40 while also modernizing key systems in true Restomod tradition. After a quick walkthrough of the key interior and exterior features, we take it for a drive.

    This has to be one of the most beautiful and perfect FJ builds. No unnecessary bs...

      Thanks Dan, it's been a really fun build and it came together so nicely. The Cummins R2.8 and Toyota H55F is such a great pairing in the FJ40.

    2nd low is nice on ranch roads checking cattle. Don’t need 4wd, but slow helps.

    holy cow this is beautiful, all I can think of is how much it must cost to do a build like this. I would think 50K at the very minimum ?

    Hi Ben, GREAT looking rig! The data plate under the hood that you said had been redone to accurately show engine size, the correct color code and the brown interior code so that the data plate is accurate to the build..... where did you get that? Thank you.

      I'm planning to retire in next 4-5yrs and working to right size the fleet to a manageable level with those things I really want to have time to play with and also willing to put the work into maintenance and recurring costs.. I haven't kept track of all the expenses during the build, but adding up the big ticket items, it exceeds what it's listed for.. 😊

    I really like the tires … 33x10.5 R15? Stock rims? Which are 5.5” wide.
    So noob question … issues on mounting? Google search says 215mm max for that width rim, which is about 8”. Concerns on bead fail?
