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

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.

EBFlex What an absolute joke. These price games Tesla plays is ridiculous
Tassos Serious car for serious drivers. Price is good especially considering the value of the USD. Watch out for blue smoke and a plan for a healthy maintenance budget. Otherwise this is a decent used car that could very well be a future classic. AS FOR ME, I’M NOT A SERIOUS PERSON SO I’LL CONTINUE FLEXING MY ANCIENT DIESEL BENZES (REBUILT TITLES) LIKE IT’S SOME KIND OF ACCOMPLISHMENT.
Fahrvergnugen “enormous power.” I guess ludicrous power must have been taken already. Where's the shazzbot power?
Probert Just to note: The suspension and braking system have been massively upgraded to match the drivetrain performance.
MaintenanceCosts They are trying to compete straight across with the BMW iX and Volvo EX90 on price. With a Kia (Boyz) badge. Good luck with that.In the $65k range there would be a case.
