This vintage Toyota off road boasts a full nut and bolt restoration ensuring driving fun for decades to come.

Toyota has a long history in the extensive world of offroading and military vehicles that have stood the test of time. From Jeep-destroying SUVs to rigid Toyota trucks, the band has become essentially synonymous with nearly indestructible utility vehicles both in the modern world and in the past. One of the most famous models that follow this general obsession with Toyota utility vehicles is the Toyota FJ40L-KC. This high-riding sport utility vehicle stunned audiences in 1980 by showing off the car's high level of comfort in rough terrain. Taking on mudslides, rock climbs, and disheveled dirt roads alike were no problem for this incredible beast.

This Toyota epitomizes that focus on off-road performance with a potent 4.2-liter inline-six engine which pushes its power through a four-speed manual transmission. Another piece of the drivetrain puzzle is the High 2/ High 4/ Low 4 transfer case, making this four-wheel drive vehicle a monster on the trails. The complete nut and bolt restoration ensures reliability, making this incredible rock crawling masterpiece the perfect choice for a strong, off-road capable daily driver. The performance of this insane automobile is incredibly up to date due to its garage-kept history and restoration.

The appearance is where things get interesting, and the exterior is coated in stunning yellow paint, which also carries into the interior. The black leather seats contrast the white canvas top, which makes spirited driving a blast and the manual shift knob even comes with an instructions panel to make moving this Japanese offroader as easy as possible. Thankfully the odometer reads just 983 miles which is a small number for a classic SUV like this. Any truck, off Roading, or classic import SUV enthusiast would jump for joy at the thought of driving this incredible vehicle, so you had better hurry if you want to purchase this vintage legend.
