FJ40 Replica: 1982 Delta Mini Cruiser

Here's one you don't see every day: a replica of a classic Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser known as a 1982 Delta Mini Cruiser! This is perhaps one of my most favorite things on eBay in many years, as it's a hell of a lot cheaper than a standard FJ40 and looks just as rugged and...

This white one looks really cool. Super impressed with the scale reproduction FST bows.

It's definitely cool, and I would like to have it, but at 60K, they're just fishing for a sucker. I wouldn't even pay half that. It kind of reminds me of a Suzuki Samurai.

AFAIK, this is a vehicle made in the Philippines in the 80ies.
Based on the Toyota Blizzard/Daihatsu Taft/Wildcat (F20, F50, F60)

By the way, and this my proposal to the moderator: the Toyota Blizzard/Daihatsu Taft vehicles and their friends deserve a place of their own in our great site and not just be a guest in other sections, e.g. "General Tech" etc. They were the little sisters of our FJ40s and still a Toyota after all...

I agree. Due to a decline in the economy, this company was dissolved in the mid 80's with a portion of the company's holdings going to Toyota, and the rest going to the Philippine National Bank. I posted in this section because I felt that was the closest one that matched. I wish this forum had a 'General Discussion' area based on vehicle type. In this case, Forum-General Discussion, Sub-Forum- FJ40, 43, 45.

Interesting. I forgot I was on that old thread, and accidentally posted. Hope no one gets mad for bringing that one back from the dead...

I could see that having a electric conversation done to it.

If golf carts looked like that I might golf more.
