About this 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ43

VIN: FJ43107270

This 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ43 is an outstanding example of the legendary 40-Series—widely celebrated for its rugged durability, off-road prowess, and timeless style. Finished in an eye-catching green with a beige soft top and brown interior, this vehicle was imported from Colombia following a comprehensive frame-off restoration in 2024. It now combines classic vintage aesthetics with modern mechanical upgrades to deliver the ultimate collector’s dream or adventure-ready rig.

🔧 Restoration & Mechanical Highlights
The Land Cruiser underwent a full frame-off restoration in Colombia before importation, which included:

Complete engine rebuild

Frame, body, panels, and underbody fully stripped and repainted

Suspension system overhaul

Brand-new aluminum radiator & exhaust system

New LED exterior lighting, soft top, tires, and emblems

Interior fully refurbished

✅ Notable Features & Upgrades
Mechanical & Steering:

4.2L 2F straight-6 engine

4-speed manual transmission

2-speed transfer case

Electronic ignition system

Aluminum radiator

Hydraulic power steering

Catalytic converter

Exterior:

Classic green paint with black trim

15-inch wheels

Removable beige soft top with roll-up side windows

LED headlights

Locking front hubs

Interior:

Brown leather upholstery

Black carpet throughout

Front 3-point seatbelts

Side-facing rear bench seats

Pioneer touchscreen head unit

Bluetooth microphone for hands-free calling

🔍 Known Flaws

Metric odometer reads ~1,200 km (~700 miles); true mileage is unknown

✅ Full pre-purchase inspection (PPI) completed for transparency — no surprises.
As with any classic vehicle of this age, there are a few mechanical items that could use attention, most of which are common wear or age-related (e.g., a loose steering rag joint, some oil seepage, minor brake and driveline components). Nothing out of the ordinary for a 40+ year-old build, and I’m happy to share the inspection list with serious buyers.

Minor cosmetic scratches on the exterior
