NOW SOLD: 1986 TOYOTA HJ61 LAND CRUISER

Here it is cleaned up with the wording unchanged:

This is the first-year 1986 HJ61 running the factory 12H-T turbo diesel and H55F 5-speed manual — the exact drivetrain combination collectors hold out for. Fully restored back to bare metal and driven less than 1,000 km since.

Sold new in Australia, it’s spent its life in a dry climate — no salt, no rust, no harsh winters. The result is the kind of straight, corrosion-free base that’s almost impossible to find today, especially at this level. The restoration has been done with a factory-correct approach, preserving originality where it matters while rebuilding everything mechanical to a higher standard than new.

First-year 1986 production brings the right details — round headlights, original 12H-T, and the factory H55F 5-speed. It’s the spec, the condition, and the provenance enthusiast want.

The 60 Series is what built Toyota’s reputation for indestructibility, and the 12H-T is the engine that cemented it. Paired with the H55F 5-speed, this is the drivetrain that crossed continents and earned its place as one of the toughest setups Toyota ever produced.

This example has been restored properly, kept true to factory where it counts, and upgraded where it improves longevity. The body is straight, the finish is clean, the interior is original and preserved, and mechanically it’s been taken beyond factory standard.

Once registered in the UK, it qualifies as a historic vehicle — zero road tax, MOT exempt, and ULEZ exempt. A usable, daily-capable classic with none of the usual running restrictions.
