The all-new way of getting your entire family into a classic Land Cruiser will be a first for normal people. While the 4-Door model has been available from custom builder Icon in the past, Redline will be the first to offer this model for under $50k. Priced at $49,900 for their base model (which includes a donor 80 Series), the FJ-UTE offers passenger seating in the first, 2nd and optional 3rd row.

 

The blend of 'vintage and modern' that the FJ-UTE promises includes the entire suspension & drivetrain from the iconic 80 series Land Cruiser, while delivering the looks & performance of the original FJ-40 Land Cruiser. Each customized vehicle will include the all-new Dakota Digital cluster that include tacometer & a 0-60 speedometer, while the balance of the interior is retro-LC styled.

If you're into build your own truck, Redline will offer a complete FJ-UTE kit for just $14,999 which includes an unfinished aluminum body, four half doors, and rear barn doors. Additional options such as seats, soft-top, a lift kit, etc will also be available. Just bring your own 80-series and build a completely custom 4 Door FJ-40 Land Cruiser!

The first FJ-UTE is already in production (we'll try to get some photos ASAP) and will be unveiled this fall at SEMA 2014 in Las Vegas (we'll be there).
