1985 HDJ75 LandCruiser Turbo Diesel Troopy for Sale
Meticulously maintained RHD HDJ 75 that had a complete frame off restoration done in 2017. Licensed and registered in the USA with clear title. She cruises comfortably at 70 plus mph and gets between 17 – 19 mpg. This is the epitome of Toyota Landcruiser reliability.
When she was restored, we swapped out the OEM normally aspirated 12H diesel engine with a low miles 12H-T turbo diesel engine from Japan – it’s basically a direct bolt in and then is converted to 12VDC from 24VDC. The 12H-T is considered one of the most reliable diesel engines ever produced and was offered for a few years in the 60 series luxury LandCruisers in Japan. We upgraded the OEM turbo and added a bigger 3” stainless steel exhaust. This car is uncommonly fast as well as fuel efficient and will run away from the current LandCruisers with the normally aspirated 1HZ 4.2-liter diesel engine.
We have used this vehicle for our business since it was completely restored in 2017. She has done very little off high way driving. We used her for long trips all across the US and Canada traveling to the various locations where we train our clients. We’re only selling her because we were lucky enough to acquire a 2023 79 Series four door pickup with the turbo V8 diesel and this is now going to be used for our business. We’re looking for a good home for our beloved Troopy.
This car is truly a unique vehicle that’s comfortable for long road trips as well as overlanding on dirt roads. It’s basically a one-ton capacity SUV that’s designed to carry a ton off-road. Look no further if you’re wanting to build a reliable overlanding vehicle. This Toyota LandCruiser platform is one of the most reliable and has proven itself all over the world in various environments for more than 35 years.
