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.

Blueice "You're describing a police state, not Communism or Marxism.'" Flyer, they are part and parcel. The Cheka and Gestapo were bothused as criminal police and political enforcement. FBI has reformatted itself into another Cheka. BTW, the Oilers looked impotent last night! I own a ED clinic and they are welcome for free treatment, with a dozen of pucks and sticks.
3-On-The-Tree I was referring to my 2009 C6 Corvette which is pretty low to the ground probably lower than a stock challenger. I’m retired and disabled from the Army and I have to sit in sideways and pull my legs in and reverse to get out. I also drive a 2021 Tundra Crewmax and like it because it has a lot of room making entry and exit easier.

Tane94 Too wagon-ish to succeed in the U.S. See Volvo V60 and V90 and Buick Regal X for reference.
Golden2husky I'd never recommend a modern Ford at this moment in time - not only the continual recalls, but there seems to be a lot of marginal parts and poor engineering ideas (an internal water pump, really?)...Almost overnight I am seeing Cybertrucks with increasing frequency. Teslas in general are thick on the ground around here but was surprised to see the trucks appear so quickly. They need better assembly quality and in the right light, some of the stainless panels seem to be a different hue from the neighboring panel.
