Toyota Land Cruiser 40 series, better known as the FJ40 or J40. This was the third generation of the long running Toyota Land Cruiser line. Available in multiple versions, including short, medium and long wheelbase versions with gasoline or diesel engines, this generation is possibly the most iconic of the Land Cruisers, alongside possibly the 70 series in my opinion. The car was marketed as the Toyota Bandeirante (a group of explorers, although the literal meaning was "flag" in Portuguese) in Brazil and the Toyota Macho in Venezuela. Production ran from 1960 to 1984, but ran from 1968 to 2001 in Brazil.
