  • 1979 FJ55
    A very rare FJ55. One of 50 of the last year made equipped with factory power steering and A/C. Stage Three restored by TLC in 1997. As you can see, it has been cared for properly ever since. We have managed the service on this truck since we originally built it. This is one of the finest FJ55's in the world, and restored to a very high quality, upgraded with a Toyota 5 speed transmission and transfer case, upgraded suspension and modern audio system. Ready for adventure!

    I recently came across a non-AC, 1979 FJ55 while on vacation in California. I'm hoping to restore it....and anything even remotely close to this level, I would be thrilled with. Great job!

    Sweet looking FJ55 Land Cruiser. My favourites have always been the FJ55 "Iron Pig" and the FJ60. If I were to buy one of my own, I'd keep as much of the vehicle original as I can, I'd also upgrade a few things.

    I owned a 1976 FJ55. I bought it in the Vancouver Canada area. The same colour as this one. I had it repainted with special paint. Two years after I was made a great offer for it. I sold it. Biggest mistake I ever had.

    I've always liked the FJ55 Land Cruiser. If I could afford it, I'd buy one, I'd keep as much of the rig as original as possible, but I'd also upgrade I with more modern features. I'd upgrade from the original 2F engine, to a Duramax LWN 2.8 litre diesel.

    When you say you updated the suspension, what exactly did you do? How about the tires? What size and make are those?

      ***** So would you say that its a 2" lift? I'm surprised adding the lift didn't affect the value of the truck, even though i feel it improved it. Do y'all sell the lift?

    I just bought a 1979 fj55 with power steering and AC. It's completely stock (other than paint) with hardly any rust and runs excellent. I bought it from the original owner and it has just 75k documented miles. Apparently I have one of the 5 you mentioned are still on the road. Looks like this one has a mild lift on it? How much higher did you go than stock Mr Ward? Love your trucks!

    Have you guys ever done a 55 on an 80 series chassis? What about a 100 series? Could you do a 43 on an 80 or 100 chassis? Sorry for the questions, but Jonathan's pretty cool about teaching idiots like me a thing or two in the comments.
