It would take some getting used to (I'm partial to the round headlights) but I could do it…..62 series…….
If the 60 series didnt exist

Down here in NZ old GQ patrols and Safari are easy to come by, solid engines and drivetrain, usually cheaper than a good 61, and have coil springs, if the interior wasn't ugly as hell and if they had a proper tailgate, then they would be as good as a 60... Well almost as good perhaps?
I would go back to the only pseudo equivalent that the US has produced IMO... 66-77 Bronco. Specifically a 76 sport model.
I know you guys are going to crucify me for this but...
There is one of these rolling around my neighborhood and I think its cool as hell.

...before you judge me keep in mind I already own an 80 and a Taco 
There's a reason you can't find GQs in good condition in Australia, it's because they've all rattled to bits and motors have died around 400,000km. I wouldn't accept that from a 60.

I love my 60 but love my 40 slightly more. If not the 60, the early Ford Bronco.
that is pretty damn cool. Vintage 4x4 rock over the modern plastic computerized crap.

Looking forward to reach the end of the world
Surely, if there were no 60, I would opt for any other Landcruiser BJ70, HZJ76, HZJ105, HDJ80, HDJ100 ... but if the question is directed to another vehicle than Toyota, I would not hesitate and choose a AMC Grang Wagonner...
... with the fake wood panel, of course
... If they do, I'll be by your side!
Shoooot no! I love the two door Cherokees. This is still one of my favorite builds:

Missed this!
Haha! Apparently I'm not the only blaspheme in the house...
this would be sweet. it seriously gets the same fuel economy as my 62 but has a way longer range!! I saw one in Whitehorse on my way to Alaska a year ago. awsome rig!! maybe not too practicle for mall cruising but I could park anywhere
Yup the cherocar gets my vote too, but obviously with the gladiator lookin front end like the one posted above. I just happen to have a grille like that one hangin in the garage.
If I didnt have a cruiser fettish I think id build my own. Newer frame and drive train maybe a dodge 2500 6bt combo or even a power wagon frame and axles with a late 60's suburban body? Throw dynatrack goodies at the dodge front axle to make it reliable and drive the hell out of it.
Or maybe a real old power wagon?

I love my 60 but I've always wanted an old Willys wagon
I know, I know...
But they look similar, and the GQ doesn't rust as easily. The 80 series just looks too modern for my taste.
