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.

Wjtinfwb "I generally lean in favor of unions as a way to give labor equal power with management," Why should labor have equal power to management? Where's their investment in the company? How many vendors, suppliers, municipalities, dealers and customers are dependent on their efforts? How long do you think it takes VW or GM to replace the guy who bolts wheels on a Silverado or seats in a Atlas? Employees are valuable, but once you put them into a collective, you give the employee base outsize power over the company to make decisions they would otherwise not make. That's Hostage taking.
Wjtinfwb The fast development of Hybrid's like this Civic and the new Camry will continue to exert downward pressure on EV sales. I'd have no problem considering a Hybrid in my next car or truck, but would not consider an EV at all due to continued range, charging time and charging availability in addition to price.
