Американская компания FJ Company, основанная выходцами из Колумбии Нельсоном и Хуаном Диего, за 11 лет работы стала всемирно признанным экспертом в области восстановления Land Cruiser серии J, а также улучшения характеристик классического внедорожника. Парни выросли в Южной Америке и в их семье, как не удивительно, были два FJ40. Для прикола они подсчитали, что провели в поездках на Land Cruiser 30 000 часов и с самого детства принимали участие в ремонте автомобилей. После смерти дедушки, возникла идея восстановить его любимый FJ40 1982 год выпуска и им это дело так понравилось, что переросло в крупный бизнес. Теперь восстановленные FJ Company классические Крузеры колесят по дорогам и украшают коллекции энтузиастов по всему миру.
На фотографиях аукционного дома RM Sotheby’s Toyota Land Cruiser FJ43 1981 года выпуска. Land Cruiser серии J производился в различных вариантах колесной базы, для удовлетворения нужд широкой массы потребителей. FJ43 – вариант со средней колесной базой, обеспечивающей более внушительной колесной базой, чем «короткий» FJ40, без особой потери в маневренности и внедорожных качествах. Было еще да более длинных варианта.
Самые популярные модели у коллекционеров сегодня FJ40 и BJ40, ключевое различие между которыми кроется в первой букве индекса: F обозначает бензиновый двигатель, а B – дизельный. Но интерес к удлиненным вариантам растет: представленный на фото FJ43 в конце мая 2021 года был продан на аукционе во Флориде за сумасшедшие 179 200 долларов (более 13 миллионов рублей)!
Автомобиль реконструирован с использованием новой подвески, полностью переработанного 4,5-литрового двигателя Toyota 1FZ (карбюратор заменен на впрыск) и современной механической коробки передач. Также появился гидроусилитель руля, дисковые тормоза, светодиодная оптика. В салоне новый материал обивки сидений, цифровая приборка, система климат-контроля Vintage Air, современная аудиосистема. Все нововведения органично вписаны в классический интерьер. Всё это позволяет эксплуатировать винтажный внедорожник в условиях современного ритма жизни, в т.ч. и в мегаполисах. Конечно, с определенными нюансами.
В общем, езда на древнем Крузаке может причинять не только боль!
Когда на классических УАЗах можно будет комфортно двигаться?! Пусть даже за 10 миллионов рублей.

An Arizona Off-roader
This matching-numbers 1981 FJ43 was transformed for a serious classic car enthusiast in search of an authentic Land Cruiser that could be enjoyed off-roading in Arizona, but would also serve as a great weekend driver for years to come. With this in mind, we maintained as much of the original vehicle as possible, while upgrading a few of its features to comply with those core objectives.
As part of the full, frame-off restoration, we rebuilt the original 2F engine, the power steering, and the front disc brakes. We installed a new carburetor, new starter engine, new pumps, and we upgraded to a new aluminum radiator. For safety, we added a custom roll-cage, a fire extinguishing system, and we installed Corbeau MOAB seats with 4-point seat belts (optional), wrapped in custom «full grain» leather upholstery extended to the rear fold down seats and door panels. For comfort and drivability, the rig sports a new Old Man Emu suspension, 5-speed manual transmission, and LED headlights. Beyond that, we did some other minor upgrades to personalize the vehicle, while keeping it authentic and original Toyota Land Cruiser. The gorgeous paint job in Olive 653, a factory Toyota color, was chosen specifically to contrast with the beautiful mountains in Arizona and neighboring States.
