North Carolina Toyota Land Cruiser specialist TLC 4×4<\/strong> has released a new restomod that fuses different Land Cruiser generations<\/a> into one capable off-roader.<\/p>\n

The 1989 FJ142 Land Cruiser<\/strong> maintains the style of a 1980s Land Cruiser with the body from the FJ62 model sold during that decade. But that body sits on the frame from a later FZJ80 Land Cruiser from the 1990s\u2014with additional modern updates.<\/p>\n

Further exterior changes include LED headlights, a new front bumper, rear bumper with tire carrier, front fender and rear quarter vents, a Warn winch, and automatic side steps. The FJ142 rolls on 33-inch Kenda Klever R\/T tires.<\/p>\n

This is also a true restomod, with modern powertrain and chassis components. A General Motors LS3 V-8 crate motor<\/strong> breathes through a new stainless steel exhaust system, and the suspension system was upgraded with Fox shocks and new springs and sway bars.<\/p>\n

The interior features leather trim, including on the steering wheel, grab handles, and center console. Additional sound insulation was added as well, along with new gauges, interior lighting, and a modern head unit that incorporates a rearview camera feed and Apple CarPlay connectivity.<\/p>\n

TLC 4×4 builds like this one start at $250,000<\/strong>. The price likely varies based on the specifications of individual builds, but it puts TLC in the same ballpark as fellow Land Cruiser restomod<\/a> firm Icon. While it lacks the vintage aesthetic of these vehicles, the new 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser<\/a> also offers similar capability and feels in comparison like a bargain at a price of $57,445 with destination<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
