Someday when I get bored and have nothing to do, I'll try to track down the Aberdeen test. If they had the 25 there for trials, there's a record of it.

it is titled as a 59What about the ’58 listed above? Strever, what does the title say?
and how early do you think the one you sold is ?Well, it's fifteen units older than the one I sold..............
so what are the vin# of these 2 ?Very interesting...wasn't the first Land Cruiser sold in the states sold to Frank Conn? And, doesn't TLC claim that their '58 is THE first Land Cruiser in the states?
attached is an image of the front of the truck showing all of the different layers of paint ?Do you think that's the original paint on the frame?
The frames could have been made in 58 then used on later rigs correct?
