This 142 is perfect. Every overlanding upgrade I would want is there. This old video might be my favourite truck I've seen you do.

Storage, jerry cans, and paint ... awesome! As well as the rest of the truck!

Mr. Jonathan, You did truly a brilliant work! The way you refurbished it, it looks like a brand new one now. Thank you so much for sharing this video.

That thing is BEAUTIFUL...... I like how clean everything is, it all looks like it came like that, then when your not expecting it, you pop the hood with a vortec small block! looks great!

Прекрасный автомобиль!

I have a guitar amp covered in that exact Chillewhich fabric…LOVE that FJ!

wow... when I saw "extreme custom" on the title of a fairly stock looking 62 I was about to scoff at it. This really is a nice machine though. would be proud to own one even half this nice.

Sweet! No wonder I drool every time I drive along Oxnard...

One day I will own a 142 and BR. Congratulations on your success with TLC and ICON. Your product you put out and work really is top quality. 👍

This truck is GORGEOUS.

that truck is AWESOME! wish mine was as good

That's just amazing. The perfect land cruiser

Digging the Bell & Ross Timepiece too!

Amazing. This may be my new dream vehicle.

I've got an 84 Fj60. Very similar except the front ARB. Nice look'n

nice rig excellent job

I. Want. One. Now.

Nice truck! I want one.

this is my dream 4x4... drool!

this one is beautiful

Awesome vid! Do y'all only work on older cars, or would you be open to working on newer vehicles like 2010 models? Also, where are all from? Thanks alot!

@1972landcruiser One of the few backward steps from 60 series to 62 series. Those square headlights were worse than the round headlights they replace. At least the stock ones anyway. This is why both the 62 and 80 series in Australia always had bullbars (steel or alloy barwork like the ARB unit on this one) fitted to them they needed somewhere to bolt both the spotlights and the aerial for the CB radio. As well as keeping kangaroos, cattle and emus out of the grille

Hi Jonathan. Amazing work and quite an inspiration as well. Any chance you would be willing to share the source for the wheels? Merry Christmas to you and yours

I´am a huge Land Cruiser´s fan. I currently own a 2000 FJ80 (I live in Venezuela and they where sold here until ´07). I really like they job that you guys did with this fj60, everything except for the engine. why wouldnt you keep the original 3F engine or, if you wanted to upgrade it; why not consider the 1FZ-F or 1FZ-FE that are undestructible engines and with an incredible power and torque???

Awesome truck. I think this one is the better LC body style compared to the 90's (fj80) version that was a tad too streamlined. I think somewhere along the line, or perhaps this was an unfortunate result of the direction Toyota wanted to go with the LC, it turned from a practical off-roader to a luxury fat-u-v with electronics up the wazzu. But I'm happy that now, 20 years after laying eyes on my first LC as a kid, I can finally afford to buy one, even if it's beat up and old as dirt haha.

Mr Ward, I totally love your style,I'm currently restoring my FJ40,and I wanted to use some of your custom parts from the Icon fj40 unfortunately it seems to be impossible to get them it's a shame. Maybe that could be a good marketing strategy give a certain level of Icon touch or have a similar product. I agree with a lot of people here, we need Diesel options,but not the international 2.8 T something with more mojo ? Last year I went to see your shop impressive. Best thing,made in California

nice

great work on the truck and I like the naming 140, 142. One question the tailgate storage is this something you sell so I can fit it to my 60 series ?

Thinking about getting this or a 1994 Range Rover 300tdi, any recommendation?

all that truck needs is round headlights

Jonathan can you tell me why FJ60s seem to be more sought after/desired than HJs? Is the only difference the fuel?

very very nice? very manly color!! how long does it take to restore this kind of project? Is it possible also to put the original engine and just do some mods out of it? just to keep the fj62 original as possible after all those mods?? Thank you

but the body, amazing work beautiful. Engine... Tear...

Thank you Sir, Another Note,I have a Fj Cruiser,and wanted to install the LED headlamps from Truck Light,I have looked on the web for instructions nothing,nada ,I even call you guys to see if you guys can do it...does it require a special housing of some sort ? a Lot of guys want to do that mod.

Do you know what that specific type of brush guard is? Also, what that type of rack on the roof is called? Thanks so much! I love this car!

I love this car great work and one lucky owner . So is it possible to drop a 100 series body on a 80 chassis ? like 105 series ?

I love this one.. what color is it

How does the snorkel connect to the Vortec?

how much did you spend on the sound system and all that good stuff ?

My perfect version of this would be a 62 on 80 series chassis but with a 60 front end. 62 because you get extra electric options 80 series chassis because of the better frame and suspension and 60 series front end because I like that front styling better than the 62. Have you done one?

nice, nice, nice TLC, I really lake it........ excelent work... how much will cost to do a proyect like that?

What would it take to convert a '88 or '89 to manual transmission? I'm saving up now for either an '88 or '89 LC, but I've never seen one with a manual trans.

very very nice? very manly color!! how long does it take to restore this kind of project?

very nice truck ,, i would like to have one ,, how can i get it ? can i choose the color >

are the " storage system" avalable for purchase?

I know people don't drive these for gas mileage, but what kind of mpg do your fj60s and 62s get?

Do you guys make that storage bin for the tailgate of a fj80? I need a place to store firearms and that might be perfect.

I know this is an oldy (vid) but gotta say Jonathan your an artist sir. I would really like to speak to you about items for 80, 100, 60 series I make. I'm a avid Toyota enthusiast and I craft bumpers, roof racks and other small items. I'm an up start business and I'm looking to be involved with only the very best aftermarket installers and businesses. May I call your offices and speak with someone about shipping an example of my work? Please if you would respond I would be very grateful to you. Thank you, Jason

Now that you guys are doing early broncos can you restore a bronco?

Why is your info not in the vid description.

What brand are those wheels?

How much does a restoration like this cost?

is it for sale???

Okay how much so I can start saving. May have to sell my M5 for this. I have have a FJ62 and this one is almost what I'm looking for. I pay cash FYI

dear santa.....

that would be awesome, just let me put a mortgage on my house, sell a kidney and a lung :P. I have an 85 with the 3F engine, manual of course :). just needs the restoration :D

Bell and Ross?

I know official tow ratings don't change - but being on a a strong frame with better suspension and have a Vortec v8 in there this thing can obviously tow far more than the original measly 3,500 lbs it was rated for on the leaf springs and v6. How much can this realistically tow? 5k? 7.5K?

How much for sale?

You guys need to ditch the All Terrains for KM2s...

Ballpark it for me… How much for a 142 like this if I supply you with a 62??

ابغى اشتري واحد ......كيف ما ادري الي عنده معلومه ينفعنا بها يتفضل تكفوووون

paint the mirrors black

Haha sure, I will have the 1VD-FTV please.

You do very nice work, and im always thuroughly impressed until i see a poopy Vortec under the hood, go with a 1 or 2UZ keep it yota powerful and reliable, you deminish your product by putting that GM engine in it.

Where are you located and what is your contact info?

Just wish it had a diesel, putting a chevo in there just doesn't seem right

it have 7 seats

do it your self and tie all the expense. then post it here

اذا للبيع اسومه ١٠٠.٠٠٠

email me anytime

ok, very nice vehicle, really very nice, i love these things but, AUTOMATIC? really? come on, grow a pair and get a manual gearbox, it's blasphemous to have an automatic toyota if you are going to do real offroading. pardon my orthography

very very nice? very manly color!! how long does it take to restore this kind of project?
