We have a ton of these 70's Land cruiser in Saudi Arabia. I could say it is the most reliable, dependable vehicle ever built in history, and it is the most vehicle used in wars.

This is different not the same we have in the middle east Thats J73 and its rare to be found yes we have left hand but with 4.5 straight 6 petrol engine The 70 came with separate rear seats on each side and without arm rest in the middle "three passengers front seats" until 2006 model year These comes with a longer wheel base and with arm rest in the middle and a traditional rear seat. Discontinued in 2006. We have a 2006 UAE imported In a burgundy and a white top. When ever I drive it everybody asking me "would you sell it?"

Drive it carefully 😅 Its a military thing nothing but a box on four Safety on these is a seat belt only No air bags High possibility of roll over 4.2 rear end makes it thirsty on highway like nothing ever made You'll feel the engine will explode after 70 mph so annoying

This video just simply made my day. This was the LC that started my obsession with LC's. They were sold for a limited time in Canada back in the late 80's and early 90's. A friend of the family had one, it was a diesel, manual, left hand drive and what a beast it was. It was an almost deep gold colour. Anyway, thank you for putting out this video, you have a new sub so i will be busy catching up and checking out your other videos over the next little bit. Cheers.

Here's a tip for anyone either driving "on the wrong side of the road" for the first time or anyone driving a car made for "the wrong side of the road". Focus on keeping the gear stick/selector in the middle of your lane. When turning, aim the gear stick at the middle of the lane you're turning in to.

Beautiful Toyota Land Cruiser 70 .. question do you have to do engine modification to comply with California emissions and to be able to pass the smog and register it with California DMV? I am planning to import 25 years old 199x Toyota Land Cruiser fj70 v6 gas engine from Dubai..i know i have to do modification to engine. For example install catalytic converter to comply with California emissions and to be able to pass the smog to register it with California DMV.

You could also fold the windshield in that if you where willing to take the top off witch was kinda of a hassle so we never did.

I agree its not as fast as my Porsche... but, I have a total different mentality when I drive it. I have had the 1F engine before, and going uphill, you would have to downshift and struggle, however the diesel with about the same horsepower, just pulls like a freight train and doesnt downshift (in automatic). I just chill when driving the HZJ73, and enjoy the drive. One of the most pleasurable vehicles I have ever driven.

@Cruising The Land I agree with you and understand what you say "I have a totally different mindset when I drive it". It is not fast, but it never struggles, empty or fully loaded, but when going uphill, when passing other vehicles, I feel a lack of strength to regain speed. My HZJ73 is my daily driver, it changed my way of driving, more relaxed, more concise, enjoying the trip, without rush. We are in tune. Offroad, in low range, it crawl everything. Still don't use the difflock.

LovelyCruiser. Not only are the tires a bit heavy for the rear door, the smaller door won't close with a 37" on the big door. I run 33"s and it only just clears the spare! 1HZ is a brilliant engine. Please don't turbo it, the pistons aren't designed for a turbo. The timing belt change is really simple on the 1HZ, do that and change the oil and a million mile is the norm.

@@CruisingTheLand oh yes, I know. Another cool thing is you can make this land cruiser what you need it to be instead of accepting what the dealer gives you. Putting in a modern AC system, modern infotainment and leather seats would really be the only updates I would make. Oh yes, an old man emu suspension system and 33in wheels with chrome rims, winch, round out the changes. Ready for anything any time anywhere.

The HJ61 has a definitively stronger diesel engine with the 12HT. The Turbo makes a big difference. It just feels like a special Power Plant evertime I drive it. Right now, my daughter commandeered that truck! It's name is Menace.

​ @Cruising The Land Yep, I watched your other video (comparing Godzilla and Menace)... Great video. Watched it to the end, and saw your daughter drive it. She surely has great taste in real things for her to appreciate such an old model for a young age! The 12H-T engine? I am a big lover of them. I have 2 old ones that need a rebuild. Got them from two owners who had removed the factory turbo. Despite that fact, I can still fill their power. So, I can only imagine what they'd be like which their turbo back (Which I'm planning to do!)

I really like this car! Congratulations! It is a pity that these are no longer released. Spring suspension is reliability. A convertible is very cool to ride with a girl. But I don't understand why the rear doors are so tall. When the roof is removed from this car, the rear doors look like a flaw. It seems to me that it would be better to make one hinged rear door along the height of the body, and close the upper part with a hinged glass, like in Suzuki Samurai Hello from Russia!
