TOYOTA LANDCRUISER 79

THE Land Cruiser 70 Series has been the sweetheart of the off-road touring crowd for almost 40 years thanks to its rugged construction, no-frills design and get-on-with-the-job abilities. Ongoing evolution that saw the introduction of a coil-sprung front axle and aV8 engine only cemented its position and it remains a perennial favourite. That doesn’t mean it can’t be improved upon, and the 70 is one of the most modified 4x4s on the market today.

This LC79 double-cab is no exception, as the total cost of its modifications and accessories tally up to twice that of the original purchase price. Do the maths and you’ll figure this is a big dollar farm truck!
