Here's another note from the TLCA board reps list. It seems that there will be a Toyota 50 year celebration at the Toyota Museum in Torrance, California on October 27th. Read the note below - there's a chance your Cruiser could even be "on display" in the parking lot.
The note also refers to the possibility of a "new" Land Cruiser that may be there - sounds interesting...
For anyone who will be in that part of the world in late October - don't miss it!

**************************************************************
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have been coordinating, at the request of the Toyota Museum, a 50th anniversary party. Event information is provided below:
Toyota USA 50th Anniversary Extravaganza
Saturday, October 27th, 2007, 10 am to 5 pm
Toyota USA Automobile Museum
19001 S. Western Ave.
Torrance, CA 90509
Contact: Susan Sanborn (310) 468-4728
susan_sanborn@toyota.com
There will be food and drinks served. Also, there will be guest speakers from Toyota in attendance including Mr. David Lee, Senior Product Education & Development Administrator for TMS USA. Mr. Lee is responsible for the development of all Land Cruiser educational materials and product knowledge, so his presentation should be worthwhile. In addition, there will be videos and other exhibits in the museum itself along with a bunch of museum-quality Land Cruisers.
The Toyota Museum is requesting a grand showing from the Land Cruiser community. From what I understand, parking at the museum is somewhat limited. Meaning specifically that the museum parking lot will be reserved for Land Cruisers of all types, so get there a bit early if you plan to attend. This is not a TLCA sponsored event, but we will have something akin to a membership booth at the museum. Unfortunately, I will not be wearing a sombrero.
There has also been talk of a "new" Land Cruiser that we might possibly get to see, so that may turn out to be pretty interesting as well.
In addition, the editor of Toyota Today, the Toyota dealer magazine, has asked me to put the word out for story submissions for their 50th anniversary edition. I would respectfully request that you please spread the word to your chapters to see if there is any interest. Interested parties should shoot me an email (jphillips@riversidelab.com) and I will put them in contact with the lead writer of Toyota Today.
Any questions, please email me or call me at 951-738-8152.
Best regards,
Jason Phillips
TLCA MSVP
