There is something romantic about cruising over the land in our beautiful country. I do it as often as possible, while ogling at the surrounding landscapes and meeting people from all walks of life. I do have an underlying objective-an obsessive nature if you will. My eyes are always peeled for old Toyota Land Cruisers on behalf of Barnyard Cruiser customers! We love our cruisers! If I find one still rugged and able bodied to cruise the land, I bring it home and dress it up for resale. Aged and resting idle in a forgotten backyard or barn, I give it a second life as an organ transplant truck. To provide scavenged parts that will eventually rehabilitate one of our favorite old timers and keep its heart beating for years to come.
Finding A Toyota FJ55 Land Cruiser Parked In The Woods 30 Years Ago: Will It Ride Again?

One thing led to another and before you knew it I was the next owner of it. Here's the complete story of the truck as well as the start of making her become roadworthy again.

cummins swap...🤔
I think the little garden you have makes this an eco-friendly CJ5. Awesome project!
Question, how did you go about connecting your engine and transmission together.
Sollu appu bandi kindaki dinchandi raaa babu
You talk too much. Just fix it with minimum bla bla bla. Watch how (SimonFordMan) fixes old cars, and try to learn something from him, he's the best. ✋
Surprisingly clean headlights
My first car was a '56 Willys CJ-5. I bought from an elderly gentleman who was a caretaker of a small cemetery. It barely hit the open road, spending it's life with a small utility trailer in tow. Forward a few years after I got back from the Army, I purchased a '74 CJ-5. 323 six cylinder. Severely underpowered. The next year, I bought a '73 CJ-5 w/304 V8. That's more like it.
put it back were you got it,
TOO ANNOYING TO WATCH
Wow shut up bro, it took half the video before you even started working on the truck
Great video...subscribed. The videography and editing is well done. I know it is a lot of work to make one of these videos. I just got my dad's '83 fj60. I need to do most of what you have done except I'm in Cali so the smog has to stay.
Less commentary! Remember, WE aren't here for comedy 🤣 hour! JUST the mechanical aspect. Respectfully, Colorado
How bad is the frame? If its anywhere near decent, you should just do a ptachwork repair on the body. Like just cut and weld, dont bother with bodylines or anything, just give it that mad max look.
Yabbity Yabbity Yabbity...............
That poor iron pig needs a loving home!
Restore
Too much Schick
Too munch conversatios
I bought an '81 new. In fine shape when I sold it 11 years later. We went all OVER the Rockies in it. And yes, they were built like trucks.
As Elvis said “Alittle less conversation & a little more action”
12 city and 17 highway?
لو باشرت عملك وتركت الثرثرة انت وصديقك لكان افضل
MONEY SHOT AT 18:38 .....
Well the body is too far gone. How many 55’s do you have in the yard? I say take all the best you have and make one “best of yard” pig. Best body/frame, best interior, best engine, etc. that crazy rust pig has the rubber floor mats…don’t see those too much any more.
Get the Land Cruiser back to its off road glory. full suspension kit and lifts, clean it up maybe a new paint job and chrome.
I want you to get it running. Then, put your foot on the gas and rev the engine to about 6000 RPM to see if the engine can take, like most of the other country bumpkins on RUclips. If it does blow up at 6000 RPM, you can just say, "Look, I told yall the engine was bad" !!!
Get the MIG-gy out to save the piggy
Save it,it's a Toyota 🎉
I’ll do my best. She at least will see the road one last time that’s forsure.
Come out to Hawaii and get my 1985 working! Your content is always great and gives me hope for some other LCs in the fields.
Buy a ticket! And I’ll be there ha. There is always hope for these old rigs.
Another solid video, Bro. We released a portable Jump starter. Can we invite you to do a review? We have emailed for an inquiry.
Me watching the intro: "The rust isn't too bad..." Me two minutes in: "Ohhh...um...that bad..."
HAHA yeahhhh kind of the same thought I had before going to tow It home. Yeah 55s rust super super super bad.
This gives me hope for my FJ55
YESSSS! keep all 55s rolling. If you need 55 parts let me know have a ton of stuff in inventory.
Icelanders loved those and other LC since!
Of course it would run - what to do with it… sell it - heh
haha yeahhhh most likely will sell it down the road. but im still going to have my fun with it first.
@ Ya that would be a good ‘run it through the woods’ 55
id put it back where i found it. or not even bother to start with.. toyota sorta got better, then between the 60 & 80, they lost the plot forever.. i drive a nissan gu.. because it has thru eye radius rods & a transmission brake. which toyota deleted.. then went yupi..
Yeah haha. But you can use the 60/80 stuff to make these really fun trucks!
A very awesome vehicle. Glad you took on this project to bring it back.
Totally. Love these dang trucks
Nice, another rescue! I just got my 79FJ45 running and useable been idle for over 10 years.
jealous! want to trade??? always dreamed of having a 45.
@@mizeadventure9438 Not yet but always open and everything is for sale ;)
100's will never be cool lol, independent front end is the death of Toyota's
Who knows. People probably said that about these truck 30 years ago. now they are so popular.
105... SFA

Nice video lots of fun!!
thanks! so happy you enjoyed it
Always enjoy these videos! Keep em comin please!
move in the cue. just need to edit them out.
I had a red one in Virginia with a warn winch and Headers.
Love that! Love the red ones
Very cool story to this one. The interview you did was sweet. Thanks for sharing this piece of history and bringing back stories of these forgotten rigs for us.
totally! these trucks usually have a great history. ill try to document these truck with more interviews in other videos.
Hope you had a great Christmas mize !!!!!!
same to you! thanks for stopping in on the channel
Good to see you back Jonas. What are you going to do about that bodywork corrosion?
Most likely nothing. as the body is so shot on this truck it would be a waste to throw rare none rusty parts at it. I may cut the rockers and quarters out to weld in some flat bars.
Look under the rear seat and see if it still has the hand crank. They're nice for turning the engine to find TDC...
I haven’t made it into the back of the truck yet as all those doors won’t open. Rusted latches. I would guess it’s still have the tools under the bench’s
Just subscribed First video saw it through Facebook. Would love to keep getting updates.
Awesome! Lots of content to watch.
lets see more of this fj
great stuff keep it up get thatv ol thing going again
In the works! Can’t wait to take it down the road or on a trail
Amazing. Thanks for the content bud
Glad you enjoyed it!

Youre the man Mize. You may not remember me, but your videos helped me get through my 2F rebuild. Your videos are awesome, and with your song choices rather inspiring, it helped keep me going when I needed it. Thank you.. Dan
