Starting the official VI Landcruiser spotted thread!

Today at lunch, at Tillicum mall: It's big, it's green... is it Cam's evil twin truck?

 

[RumRum]

Saw a late sixties seafoam green FJ45 in the Royal Oak shopping centre yesterday. Had an "N" decal. I just stopped and stared...it was so awesome.

*edit: May have been spring green. Loved the colour...I will have to start packing a camera around...

RumRum... Pics?


I'll need to take some pics, there is a 77ish 45 with a bobbed box at Reynolds regularly. He's got TBI on a 2F and a full length box at home. Can't remember the owners name, but his dad's got a couple of Landcruisers too.

Saw this 82 42 while I was fuelling here in Calgary. Manitoba plates. Very clean w/no rust bubbles. The car hauler was running but no one was around. Wonder if it was headed west or??

I thought about taking a pic, but then felt like a spy...


but saw a nice 42 at the home despot in nanaimo last week. Burgundy, pretty sure it had an aluminum tub and aluminum halfdoors, with grey soft top.

Swing out carrier on the back and some sortof stinger deal on the front.

Had the look of having just finished being resto'd, and was out for one of it's first runs. That or the owner keeps it really clean.

Saw the same green 60 at Cap.Iron that Andrew saw, nice looking truck!

Red 45 at the departure bay ferry a few days ago.

Only saw the cab sticking up over top of the sea of econo boxes, so don't know if it had the factory bed or not...

Paint on the cab was shiney.

That green one there, I am pretty sure I fixed that one up when I was at Radd. Has Jap frame boxed, body swapped from a canadian cruiser has 2h with turbo.

Followed someone in a red and black 60 series for a few moments till it turned right on glanford, had a diving sticker bottom left and ih8mud sticker on rear window. Stop by someday and say high if I'm out tinkering on the cruiser whoever you are!

 

[seapotato]

I've seen a white 74 ( or similar) with a snorkel a few times around nanaimo lately.

 

[hellbent40]

never meet the guy that drivers the red 60 but its always parked on Skinner Street..

 

[bikersmurf]

Saw an early 40 (73ish) while in Milwaukee on Wednesday... Hatch in rear, rusty tub.

 

[asutherland]

Spotted Hector at the corner of Goldstream and Jacklin on the weekend! I was walking the baby and dog...

I saw the same (??) 45 on the Horseshoe bay side. It's an Aussie truck with tray back with the fold-down sides. It was at EBI a couple months back. Great old farm truck!

Spotted a 40 on Friday night heading that was heading into downtown Victoria on Blanchard. I was turning left at a light in the Safari from the opposite direction.

 

[bikersmurf]

Could have me... What colour was it?

 

[Rigpig]

Spotted a semi somewhere between Fox Creek and Grande Prairie last week with 3 mine-prepped 70 series pickups on the trailer headed to some mine up north. Couldn't find the phone in time for pics...

Use to see them in rows at the end of No. 6 Rd in Richmond. So close but so far away.

80 series in Sidney.

Haven't seen this colour before.... looked kinda like Enigma's.
