The army in Belize. The passenger was racked out drooling on the window and the driver had it to the boards. Likely not too worried about getting a ticket.
Libya must be a goldmine for used Land Cruiser 7x series parts. 
I bet that roof panel and hood have some "hail damage"

I have been so tempted to do an urban camo 79 but I'd be way too afraid of all the attention and looks it would get. That 4 door is OFF THE CHARTS. That's how I'd make mine. Pic saved for future referenceBeen some good photos of the 7x in operation in Libya these days....
First picture is one that @c2dfj45 built for the Libyan army....

If you do Real Tree or Mossy Oak camo no one will even see the truck.I have been so tempted to do an urban camo 79 but I'd be way too afraid of all the attention and looks it would get. That 4 door is OFF THE CHARTS. That's how I'd make mine. Pic saved for future reference

Probably could get all the colors at WalMart
Some more Libya 79 series action...
Looks like the photographer was sitting in the back seat of a Land Cruiser as well.

A special branch of the military guards our facilities over here and for the most part they use 79 series, 2 door pickups and FJ Cruisers. The 79s are always equipped with the Dunlop SP Qualifier tires until the last week or so when I started noticing one or two sporting a Toyo with a much more aggressive tread. I stopped yesterday and they let me take a photo of the tire. Unfortunately I didn't take a photo of the tread as I assumed a quick google search would find the tire but I am finding it much more elusive than I presumed. The tread is not quite an MT but maybe an AT+. I posted the tire in this thread because at this point I am assuming it's a military only tire.
FJ Cruisers ....really

The police and military use a lot of them.
Very common and you can still get a 2020 model over here ... seems toyota stopped selling in US around 2014, but alive and well in GCC
M506 will likely be the closest bet conus

I don't have pictures, but instead of a video of 75's and 79's in combat. The whole video is interesting, but if you're pressed for time I suggest starting at 17:40ish and watching it through to the end. I just find it really interesting to see footage of what it's like to be in combat (or fleeing from it) in the same type of vehicle I drive every day, just putting around town in lol.
