1970 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 by FJ Company

This 1970 Land Cruiser FJ40 was refurbished and modified by the FJ Company in Bogotá, Colombia, before being imported to the US and acquired by its current owner in 2021. Built to the FJ Company’s G40-S specification, the truck is finished in Cadet Blue and receives power to all four of its wheels from a supercharged 4.0-liter Toyota 1GR-FE V6 mated to a five-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Additional features include front and rear electronic locking differentials, custom 16” aluminum wheels, FJ70 front coil-spring suspension, front disc brakes, power steering, brown leather upholstery over Recaro front seats, LED lighting, a Warn winch, air conditioning, and a custom Bluetooth sound system. This modified FJ40 was featured in a 2021 Omaze charity fundraising sweepstakes, although the winner chose a cash alternative instead of the truck. It is now offered by the selling dealer in California on behalf of the Omaze asset management team with a clean Florida title.

The body was removed from the frame and stripped to bare metal during the build before being repainted in Cadet Blue accented with a white roof. Exterior features include a Warn front winch, FJ Company Heritage side mirrors, Rigid Truck-Lite LED headlights, bumper-mounted front fog lights, a tow ball, and a rear utility light mounted behind a Cadet Blue jerry can.

Gray painted FJ Company-branded aluminum wheels with bright Toyota hubcaps simulate the appearance of factory wheels and are wrapped in 265/75RF16 BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tires. A matching spare is mounted on a swing-out carrier at the rear. Power-assisted anti-lock brakes combine discs up front and drums at the rear, while added assistance features also include traction control, stability control, and power steering.

The interior is trimmed in brown leather over heated Recaro Specialist front seats as well as over the front-facing rear bench and door panels. Additional features include tan Coco Mats floor coverings, retractable front shoulder belts and rear lap belts, a roll bar, CNC-machined aluminum knobs and handles, LED dome lighting, roll-up windows, USB and 12-volt receptacles, and an FJ Company heating and air conditioning system utilizing Vintage Air and Toyota FJ70 parts with vents integrated into a custom dash. The custom sound system incorporates a concealed Pioneer Bluetooth head unit and a JL Audio five-channel amplifier driving front and rear component speakers and a subwoofer.

The three-spoke black steering wheel sits ahead of an FJ Company-branded cluster including a 120-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5,500-rpm redline. The digital odometer shows 2k kilometers (~1,300 miles), with total chassis mileage unknown. A backup camera displays its video feed in the rearview mirror.

The 4.0-liter Toyota 1GR-FE V6 crate engine features variable valve timing and is fitted with a Magnuson supercharger. Power is distributed to all four wheels via a Toyota five-speed manual transmission, a dual-range transfer case, and front and rear electronic locking differentials. Additional features include a stainless-steel exhaust system and a 23.7-gallon fuel tank.

The FJ70 front suspension setup incorporates coil springs, an anti-roll bar, and telescopic shock absorbers, while telescopic shocks are also utilized as part of the leaf-sprung rear suspension. The frame is said to have been galvanized, and Raptor bed liner was applied to the underside and floors.

This modified FJ40 was most recently used in an Omaze sweepstakes to raise money for charity. The winner of the Omaze sweepstakes chose to accept the cash alternative instead of the truck, and as such, it is now available for purchase via this BaT auction.
