More pictures of my 79 series

Hello everyone, I have been here for a few years. I started out with a 1997 80 series and became hooked on land cruisers. I have been working in Guatemala for years so I decided to buy myself a nice diesel 79 series double cab. I am currently in Nicaragua touring around and will be traveling up...

Old thread but a good one.
