A Japanese video that shows Land Cruiser 71/76/78 manufacture at the Toyota Auto Body Yoshiwara Plant.
The first few minutes explain a quick and dirty assembly process of the 300 series in comparison to the 70 series build process which is the bulk of the video.
Pretty impressive that to this day (and was the case when I visited the plant in 2010) the body weld process is still done by hand.
300 series manufacture is highly automated/roboticized in comparison.
It’s in Japanese. But the video is stellar.
