The Toyota Land Cruiser is making a comeback in 2024, but for those who prefer a more classic style or don’t want to wait, there’s a modified 1965 Land Cruiser FJ45 pickup available at auction. This Land Cruiser, currently listed on BringATrailer.com, features a 5.7-liter LS1 V8 engine and underwent a thorough mechanical and cosmetic refurbishment. The bid is currently at $60,000 with no reserve and five days left in the auction.

The modified Land Cruiser comes equipped with power steering, disc brakes, a front winch, tow hooks, and locking hubs. Power is transmitted through a five-speed manual transmission with a dual-range transfer case, routing power to all four wheels. It also features 17-inch American Racing rims and 37-inch General Grabber X3 tires for enhanced off-roading capabilities.

Inside the vehicle, you’ll find a three-spoke Grant GT steering wheel, a body-color dashboard, and an Alpine stereo. The instrumentation includes a 160-mile-per-hour speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, voltage, coolant temperature, and fuel level. With a 23-gallon fuel cell, the total mileage of the Land Cruiser is unknown despite the odometer reading 6,000 miles.

In contrast, the forthcoming 2024 Land Cruiser features a more modern design and is equipped with a turbocharged 2.4-liter hybrid engine producing 326 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque. It also has full-time four-wheel drive and a two-speed transfer case. The 2024 model is smaller and more affordable than its predecessor, targeting a starting price in the mid-$50,000 range. With 8.7 inches of ground clearance, it boasts impressive off-road capability.

Inside the new Land Cruiser, you’ll find a central infotainment screen measuring 8.0 or 12.0 inches, the latest safety features, and modern technologies. It can comfortably seat up to five people and shares its platform with the Lexus GX, while still maintaining its unique appearance.
