1972 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40

Description

A go-anywhere 1972 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser finished in a bold red is what classic off-road dreams are made of. So read all the details on this well-priced and nicely-presented 4x4 before the market does another upturn on these icons.

The Land Cruiser basically wrote the book on dominating the globe. It's become an iconic of robustness, and so there's no reason to paint it a bashful color. This bold red has a terrific gloss that comes from a solid investment. And the iconic white grille combined with the white wheels almost gives this a two-tone feeling. Of course, the most fashionable parts of this Land Cruiser are the stout features. The wide bumper protects the entire front end and has utility hooks to pull friends out of the muck. There are not only latches to keep the hood secure, but also a set to keep the fold-down windshield fastened. A tow hitch on the rear makes this classic exceptionally versatile.

Not only does the soft top have the kind of tautness that tells you it's newer, but also when you fold it down, it reveals a fresh interior. While all the red makes for a great-looking interior, this one also never loses its utility. These FJs are meant to be open to the world, and so everything is built to stay robust. The vinyl on the seats feels both fresh and nearly bulletproof. The gauges are simple, clean, and hardy. There's even liner paint on the floor so you never have to worry about throwing something in the back. But because we know you're also going to want to enjoy this classic Land Cruiser on the streets, there's an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo with USB for your iPod/iPhone. After all, all it takes is your favorite music to turn a tough 4x4 into cool cruising convertible.

The engine bay shows even more investments in quality. This fresh and tidy presentation means you can proudly take this one to a car show. Of course, Toyota's trusty and torquey 3.9-liter inline-six is the backbone of the Land Cruiser's tough-as-nails reputation. So if all you do is show off this FJ, then you're missing out on a whole lot of fun. After all, it fires up quickly and the three-speed manual transmission gives you full control. Plus, the 4x4 two-speed transfer case and Kenda Kevlar tires are there to make sure your fun starts when the road ends.

The classic FJ40 Land Cruiser looks like you're on safari even if it's just a grocery run. So when you can pick up such a bold example for such an obtainable price, you know you need to hurry on this deal. Call now!
