Default Who has a landcruiser 75/78 series?

Does anyone here own a toyota landcruiser 75/78 pickup from between 1996 - 2002?

That they would be able to take a whole bunch of reasonably decent pics of as requested?

Thankyou very much in advance

If you can, plz reply or shoot me a pm.

and yes, this is for body/chassis research

Kyosho used to make that shell. Extremely rare though.

nah, wrong one, Im talking about the narrow bonet, older style pickup version ie:


imo it is one hell of a vehicle (not that particular pic though, just in general)

and I dont need random pics, I need hardcore model-a-body-worth-producing from pics

If noone can supply, I will hunt one down in my hometown and try get what I need

Thanks anyway

I think 78 is also that body style?

Looks a good bit like the radioshack croc hunter truck.

Best of luck to you...

If anyone on here could find it, I would imagine you would have the best luck.

Do you need the pics of the pickup only (I think pickup is the 75) or would pics of the 78 Station ("Bushtaxi") also help. There was also a short wheelbase available 73/74. We have a big community here for these 7series HeavyDuty Landcruisers, but most are the 78 and the 73/74. The pickup is very rare here.

Here is a Link to the german landcruiser forum, I'm sure you will find some pics there:

I am not sure if this is the exact model but it is the right model series.





It's a hardbody from a rather uncommon Radio Shack Animal Planet "Croc Hunter" box set themed off Steve Irwin but as far as I can tell its a FJ75 I think its the newer model of the series since it has the square headlights. I snatched the body off Ebay because it looked unique but I am not doing anything with it so if you need it for what you are doing PM me and we can work something out I am sure. Of course I expect whatever you produce to be much higher quality

This is what you are talking about right?

Thanks guys, I will check out those links and I will search some more of the 4x4 forums.

Just to clarify, im not looking for an existing rc body, just high quality reference of the real thing.
I dont know if I will make one for personal use, design for commercial use, or not at all - just trying to figure that out. (possible long term project)
