Today's UCOTD is a cool little off-roader that comes to us by way of Utah: A 1971 Toyota FJ Land Cruiser.


This one has a Chevy 350 cubic-inch V8 engine complete with headers and a dual exhaust. The transmission is a Turbo 400 automatic. The suspension is upgraded and the tires and wheels are custom, and this FJ is a soft top.

There's not much else to the ad, so you'll need to contact the seller to learn more.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

    Can we reinstate BTSR so that his posts will again be the first ones we see to any columns on this site?

    I wonder what's hiding under that diamond plate...

      In my experience nothing good at all. But it could be the rare one where the owner just likes the look of diamond plate, and with how well sorted the rest looks I guess it is possible.


  • Kjhkjlhkjhkljh kljhjkhjklhkjh So, to summarize... they hate all cars. but every single idiot in that riot had a cell phone that up to 2022 globally USED MORE LITHIUM THAN THE ENTIRE AUTO IDUSTRY.. their education system must be as bad as ours ...
  • NotMyCircusNotMyMonkeys poor little aspie, slowly going bwoke!
  • Redapple2 So Mazda and Subaru both have strong ties/relationship with Toyota? Good.
  • Tane94 what a great line! Kudos!!!"They have multiplied like meth-addicted rabbits on a three day bender."
  • Tane94 Former CEO Alan Mullaney brought back the Taurus nameplate and ditched the CVT for a regular automatic tranny. Both were good moves. Sadly few 2008 and 2009 Taurus models were built as the Great Recession began.
