It is actually a Daihatsu Rocky (Taft) - but never seen one like that before!

That Daihatsu is hilarious! It looks like a baby Land Cruiser in the same sort of way a German Shepherd puppy resembles an adult - it's obviously the same species, but the proportions are just. . . wrong.
Eat your vegetables little guy, and you can grow up to be an FJ-40!
If you're just snapping pics of all the 40's you come across, it seems like you've got a very high percentage of snorkels there in Malaysia.

Just seen this sweet 40 in Jakarta. No rust that I can see! You can see the spot welds on the side panels tho, but at least you know there's no Bondo on there!!
I'm guessing the springs n struts are still the original ones - they are looking kinda flat now. It is still a beautiful beastie tho!

Just saw a nice 40 in Malaka a couple days ago. Picture was blurry, but it was a green 40 with a half cab on it. Slightly lifted. Nice looking, and it moved right past me pretty quick, hence the blurry pic.
Looked much like this one....

Those are some cool rigs. FJ's are like Coca Cola. It's the only thing you can find everywhere else in the world.
cruiser
Thought I might share some pictures from my visit.
I have to say that if you ever have the urge to see a landcruiser, go to Koto Kinabalu, ML.
I counted 20 in 1 minute several times!
Place is crazy full of cruisers of all ages.

More rigs. I saw several tow trucks. This one was a 70 series, but saw several 45 series towtrucks. Always the bright yellow
