Copies of the truck’s original documentation / Restoration photos / A Vintage Land Build Book

This 1970 FJ43 is a rare medium wheelbase Land Cruiser that made its second debut in early 2016. The truck’s mostly-original body was worked all the way to bare metal, promptly re-sprayed in a Cygnus White pigment and shrouded in a fresh canvas roof.

ENGINE

Mechanically, this FJ exemplifies that top-notch restoration with a correct Type F engine, which wears a familiar “F” assembly stamp.The F155 is a competent 125 horsepower with the ability to get this compact 4×4 out of many tight situations and tow just about any moderately sized toy its owners can imagine. At the top of the black block, restored Dry Type induction pipes wind to a small Aisan carburetor. At the base of that carb, a monochromatic, “F155” branded valve cover caps factory intake and exhaust manifolds.

DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION

This old school SUV features part-time 4-wheel drive and enough ground clearance to give new meaning to the phrase “stump jumper”. The truck’s rugged 3-speed utilizes big gears to serve up an awesome combination of inclement weather capability and off-road prowess. A manual steering rack provides the kind of vintage feedback that excites off-roading purists. Big drum brakes bring everything to a halt. The truck’s chassis rides a factory-spec.

The car is equipped with a complete "Old Man Emu" suspension kit that mixes a pair of solid axles with a quartet of leaf springs.

Factory replacement pipes shuttle spent gases through a mid-mount muffler.

INTERIOR

Inside this classic, you’ll find professionally restored seats in orange color. In front of the driver, a boxy, color-keyed dash frames clear gauges and restored accessory knobs. Below that dash, a duo of shifters, one for the 3-speed and one for the 4-wheel drive, ride thick floor mats. Opposite those shifters, Cygnus White doors frame small handles and traditional window cranks.
