I am looking to buy me a new project Land Cruiser but need help on deciding what year and other misc info to make the best choice. I have always been a 4banger yota man and have decided to branch out but need some good general advice. So, what's the best pre-automatic 4door land cruiser to buy and fix up? thanks,

Any of them. Depends on what you want for tranny and power options. I don't think theres much difference over the years.

Not looking to build a rock crawler or mud bogger, but a good originally set up rig. What years were better for gas mph? Which are the easiest to work on? Which has the best ride?

Like concerning 4runners, I like my 86 over an 87 b/c its a straight axle, however, it rides a lot ruffer. Some 87's have power accessories, 85's usually didn't. That's the kind of info I'm not familar with concerning the 4dr Land Cruisers.

I guess I need a short history on the preFJ62s. Thanks,

Cruisers are not particularly easy to work on... and don't expect good fuel economy compared to a honda... Its all relative.
