This 40 series was build from the ground up, with parts coming from roughly 10 different cars and rests on an 80 series chassis - pretty remarkable piece of work if you ask us!
Let us know what you think of the build in the comments below - and tell us what you’d like to see a feature on next!

I'm on my third FJ 40. A new 1973, a used 1968, and a new 1978. Still have the 1978. 62,000 miles. Cosmetic upgrades and mechanicals. Loved your build thread. beautiful machine.

A Four eighty. Beautiful. Is that engine completely mechanical as you stated, not to difficult on the wiring side? I really want a 4.2 six for my poor old 2.4 Prado 70. I am the same, as in, I want simply reliability that I can fix myself. But I also want the best I can get.

yep. very little electrical things in a 1HD-FT. Only wire will be to the starter and another to the fuel solenoid to switch the thing off. Its like a good old 350 chev for wiring.

Nice job, Lawrence! I want to do a similar project, putting a J45 cabin/bed on a Hilux chassis and combine it with a BMW inline-6 Diesel. You are giving me hope that my idea is not 100% crazy! Keep up the good work and greetings from Brazil.

@itsfromlawrence 5 жыл бұрын

Brazil has the benefit of the Bandeirantes and the dual cab that we would love here in Australia and no your not crazy. You should see the 4 door 40 series wagon I'm building, thats crazy.

@daviddelambert2752 5 жыл бұрын

are you thinking the BMW M51? or is there a more reliable BMW Diesel

@felixspiess 5 жыл бұрын

Yes Toyota made a dual cab in Brazil, but only about a 1000 were built in 2001, therefore extremely rare and too costly to be chopped up for projects. Also, these have an awfully long wheelbase, the proportions don´t seem right. I think it´s better to build a custom dual cab cabin, with a (short) pick-up bed. Very curious to see your 40 wagon, please share your sketches/pictures.

@felixspiess 5 жыл бұрын

@@daviddelambert2752 I will have to find a crashed BMW X5 SUV (Diesel) and take it apart for the drivetrain and electronics. Only BMW diesel ever sold in my region is the B57... currently looking for such a car at auction. I think reliability is not an issue anymore on the newer engines. The tough part is getting the engine to work outside of its known environment.
