Last April I did a 3000km location scout from Sydney to the fringes of the red centre and back again - in a week. I did it in my repowered patina'd 1970 FJ45. Plenty of good snaps! My first real taste of the actual outback. Most of the stills I got were from the driver's seat as I was pegging it the whole way, but there's a few goodies from outside. For reference:

Yes! Original 40 year old paint... I have a pic earlier in this thread before I buffed it out...
You can see the wear n tear if you look close.

The only thing missing on this '64 is the engine and back jump seats. A local Land Cruiser guy has this; it's for sale. He may still have it-it's been about six months since I've last visited for some parts. Two tone I assume is not original.
