The first stage of a longer restoration plan.
A different shape. A distinct history.
This FJ45LV was found on a high-mountain ranch in Colorado. Its original project introduction describes owners who loved the vehicle and a restoration intended to develop its condition and performance.
The ranch background is the defining detail in the published account. It is also a reminder that the Land Cruiser story extends well beyond a single body style.
