Combining classic looks with modern muscle, ECD Auto Design has injected new life into the beloved Toyota FJ Cruiser. This one-of-a-kind restomod embraces the FJ’s iconic boxy design while infusing it with contemporary features and earth-shaking performance.

Gone is the original engine; in its place sits a throaty 6.2-liter Chevrolet V8, paired with a smooth-shifting six-speed automatic or an optional manual transmission for those who crave a more connected driving experience.

ECD doesn’t stop there upgraded fueling, cooling, and exhaust systems ensure the engine performs at its peak, while meticulous attention to detail throughout guarantees a truly unique and capable off-road companion.

Invigorating a legend, the ECD Toyota FJ restomod boasts a modernized performance beneath its classic shell. Upgraded heavy-duty axles and suspension enhance off-road capability, while full disc brakes provide confident stopping power.

ECD-designed 16-inch wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich all-terrain tires tackle any terrain, and the iconic tailgate-mounted spare remains.

Tubular sidesteps offer easy access to the cabin, which features a brand-new slimline front bumper with integrated daytime running lights. Staying true to the FJ’s heritage, the classic grille and headlight surrounds are preserved.
