44,000 views in 24 hours. I honestly didn’t expect this to be anything that more than overland.kinja and the handful of mud buddies here on Oppo would care about. Who knew?!
Have a properly outfitted 200 to celebrate. Thanks for all the great comments everyone, even MtrRider.

When they are built up...they look VERY good.

Even the base Australian-spec one looks good imo. But you are 100000% correct.

You put into proper context a currently misunderstood legend.
I’m going to search cars.com for LC/LXs for under 15k. Then invest my life savings into oil futures to offset the fuel costs. Good plan? Good plan.

I just recently got acquainted with a guy who does LC building for business. Rebuilding, and I mean completely, down to the last nut rebuilding 40s, 60s, 80s, while importing and selling brand new 70s. Because the official Toyota importer does not, so he does, and makes money doing so. Has a separate garage in Saud.... because there be the clients.
I got to know him because of this:
Even two years ago this FJ45 was doing service at the fire station of a small Swiss village. There must not have been plenty of fires, because the mileage is incredible: 21,000 km Yes, i didn’t miss a zero there, that’s twenty-one thousand on a 2F motor 45. Will have insane value once back to original, non-firetruck specs, I’m told.
Anyway, wanted to say that I enjoyed your piece very much, thanks! Wish I could afford to buy and fuel a 60, because I like their look very much.....
