Oh, the stories this vintage SUV could likely tell. After seeing plenty of action over the years, this 1988 Toyota FJ62 Land Cruiser has been thoroughly revitalized both inside and out, so it's ready for plenty more years of service. Combine the innate durability the Toyota brand has come to be known for with a meticulously executed restoration and you have a true conversation piece on wheels right here. You'll find the same two-tone gray and... blue color scheme draped over the exterior of this four wheel drive workhorse that it first wore some 30-plus years ago and it's never looked better than it does right now. Thorough preparation and skillful application has paid some definite dividends - this distinctive paint job presents like new, with consistent pigmentation and a smooth, glass like texture. It's ornamented by an assembly of chrome that's in matching condition. As this classic Toyota approaches, you'll notice the sharp condition of its badged front grille and bumper right away and as you take a lap around it to get a closer view, you can't help but marvel at its consistently clean condition. A tow hook positioned up front and a trailer hitch in back serve notice that this venerable ride is about more than vintage aesthetics - the accompanying able-bodied drivetrain can certainly back that notion up - and a good deal of those visual details that are often skipped during restoration have been taken care of in this case. Inside these doors is a driving environment you'll truly look forward to taking to the road with. The pair of cloth front buckets at its center have most likely been in place since this Toyota first sprang into action and yet they're still looking very solid, with well-fitted covers and none of the drastic discoloration you'd rightfully expect. They're surrounded by more recently added components, including the headliner and carpet. The dash area sports a pad free of any cracking and an instrument panel that harbors a collection of clear readable gauges. At the center is a factory AM/FM/Cassette stereo that stands ready to handle your audio needs, combining with a multi-disc CD changer to ensure you won't run out of options. The factory air conditioning blows cold and strong - there'll be no issues getting comfortable inside this classic, even during these warm summer months. You aren't likely to get any complaints from your backseat passengers, either - this is one roomy cabin, with plenty of real estate separating the two rows of seating and even more storage space on hand in back. This ultra-durable ride is powered by a 4.0 liter inline 6 cylinder engine that sits at the center of a well-maintained compartment. It was rebuilt to factory specs only a few years back, so it's running in top form, and it pairs with a 4-speed automatic transmission that received the same treatment a few months earlier. Should you find yourself having to navigate unforgiving terrain, the four-wheel drive feature is fully operational and easily activated via a lever sitting just in front of the automatic floor shifter. Smooth power steering makes the navigating easy while power brakes bring low-effort stops as this vibrant classic cruises on its set of ultra-clean 15" factory wheels wrapped with Toyo All-Terrain tires that appear to have quite a bit of tread left. The sheer longevity of this 1988 Toyota FJ62 Land Cruiser makes it one compelling ride to begin with and it's seen all the attention needed to bring it to top mechanical and aesthetic form, so it's shining as brightly as ever.
