- 1977 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 Restoration Project
California Dream
Featured on Jerry Seinfeld's, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, with guest star Ellen DeGeneres. Learn more here: www.carscoops.com/2018/02/jer...
This highly original FJ40 was delivered to The FJ Company from Palo Alto, California as a contract restoration, ordered by an enthusiast of high-end classic automobiles. This FJ40 met the stringent criteria that seasoned restorers look for in a donor: matching numbers, original engine, and minimal rust - all it needed was a proper restoration, which is where FJ Company came in.
A California Original
This FJ40 is 100% West Coast - right down to the restored emissions equipment that keeps it street-legal in California. Its classic exterior received a fresh coat of factory paint (Yellow 532), a set of 80's model Toyota white wheels with 31" BF Goodrich® All-Terrain tires, and a newly restored, original Toyota PTO winch. Inside, the cabin is a rugged oasis, accented with retro-style pull-knobs and gauges, painted metal, and vinyl.
Refined Ride Quality
Without sacrificing the FJ40’s rugged nature, FJ Company infused this ride with some discreet updates to enhance drivability. FJ Company rebuilt the power steering system and added Old Man Emu suspension for a more controlled and comfortable ride. Then, FJ Company completely rebuilt the powertrain using the original engine and 4-speed manual transmission, with a slight adjustment to the axle gear ratios for a more efficient driving experience.
Classic Creature Comforts
This FJ40 is what the classic Toyota Land Cruiser has always been - bold in its simplicity, and iconic in its utility. Yet, A/C flows freely throughout the cabin, and the stereo system is iPhone®- and Bluetooth®-ready. But you’d never know this FJ40 was equipped with such civilized features unless you really looked - and that’s the whole point.
A New Classic
That retro look you love now comes with an amped-up modern powertrain. Build your own G40 Heritage by The FJ Company today - www.fj.co/build/g40-heritage

Amazing job. Congratulations from Brazil.
I'm very excited about the visuals! Very high quality photos! Thank you for the great project and for the content!
MAGNIFIQUE !
I love ❤️ those old Collections 🚑 vehicles and it's pretty good the 1962 style.
Great project 👍
No more, no less. Perfect!
Una de las mejores restauraciones que he visto en mi vida.
Uffff excelente trabajo
This is called beauty 👌
Wow. Looks so good
Just fantastic 💕
excellent music, wonderfull work
Here in Brazil, Toyota changed its name to Bandeirante, and was equipped with a diesel engine made by Mercedes Benz do Brasil.
What are the specs on that engine; horsepower, torque, etc.?
This is my dream car 😍
A música parece do legião urbana - tempo perdido.
mas é um plágio....
Quanto ao jipe, ficou perfeito. Tenho um 83, super restaurado. Amo demais! O bicho é bruto!
que hermosa camioneta, yo tuve una muy parecida
Great job!
Perfect 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇧🇷👍🏻
Greetings to you, you are excellent. In Iran, artists like you are also excellently renovating and strengthening❤❤❤❤
Sensational 😎👌
Quá tuyệt vời, chúc a mạnh khoẻ
What a beauty ❤️😍😍!
Che spettacolo !!!!!!
Good job👍🏻
Спасибо 👍
Goodjob. 🔥😎
WOW Fantastic.
Excellent work and thank you for the video. But there is no way I would have touched it and would have kept it the way it was, a driver, off roader and all around cool truck. I have had many 40 series trucks and it is hard to find one that appears to be all original. There are many basket cases out there that need this kind of resto. Just my opinion and not trying to insult the owner.
100%...when i first the "before" photo i thought it was the "after" -- this thing shouldn't have been touched.
Great job and I have many unique land cruiser looks like this car view but everything original not rebuilt
nice job....but it was better the way it was before......all original...
I want one.
UFFF QUE HERMOSURA...
Einfach geil !
Toyota Bandeirantes.
Here in Brazil.
greetings from Brazil.

Welldone bro
Огонь🔥
Muito bom.👍👍👍👍👍💪
Que recontra bellezaaaaaaaaa!!??
They are a great vehicle.
Woow very nice 👌😍👍
It helps when you start out with a vehicle in such nice condition that it doesn't need to be restored in the first place.
I'm currently restoring a 1966 FJ40 with a corrugated top. I love the look of yours, what sized tires and wheels did you put on?
Nice👍👍👍... Like it
Fantástic
Wow great
Nice car
Memories ... I had one of these when I was 20 .. it was about 3 years old. I loved it BUT mine was bought from a government auction and it seems it had been parked in a river for a length of time and tarted up to look ok. I had a minor accident and the car split in two ;(
I found out way too late that vehicles given to the "traditional land owners" were death traps for unaware buyers.
Memories ... !!!
É a bandeirante no brasa!
Belleza
thank you
Hardtop👍👍👍
And how much do you reckon for a complete restoration for a single cab 2003 Toyota hilux with a 1KZTE engine 3L clocking 275,000 km on it
nice too😘😘
Cool
The engine is the original or changed
Museum quality.
Супер.
