I talked with Frank Diaz of Land Cruiser Heaven this morning. He had posted on Instagram that he was working out details to import a bunch of LC79 and LC200 bodies from the Middle East.
From our discussion, these are brand new vehicles that are being bought for the running chassis for armored vehicles. What is left is available - basically no engine, no seats, no dash, no console, no frame, no running gear, but it does have headliner and door panels.
There are two setups available for pickup in Maryland:
Here are two builds I've been following:
I'm going to send Frank the link for this post. He is @FloridaFJ80 on here.
Once he has a few stateside, he's open to scheduling to have a group down to look at them if we want to organize things.
Let me see if the Instagram link works here:
