  • Vehicle Info

    This customer had a great end result expectation for this project, and it was up to us to figure out how to get there. With some very specific requirements from the customer, width restrictions, fuel requirements and reliability requirements we set forth to the build the FJ40 that has it all. Great torque and power, superb suspension and drivability and all the creature comforts one would expect in a modern vehicle wrapped in old Toyota skins. This Toyota was a real challenge to fit everything required by the customer and us to make this the ultimate FJ40. This might be one of the nicest, most capable vehicles we have built to-date.
