Well always have liked the 4 square headlights of the 62 vs the round of the 60.
don't like that the 62 usdm is AT only. Will be doing a H55 5 speed swap
Xmas present to myself - yup 3rd land cruiser purchase of the year
owner has it 7 years. Original Los Angeles car. 0 rust.
got a great deal I feel like.
drove 3 hours to see it. Bought it. Owner will deliver this weekend after he emission tests it
rare two tone oem . Paint faded.
5 speed manual swap and paint is what it needs.
cant wait to live with EFI since all other LC are carb in the fleet
You can see my Si in the background
Antennae is broken
both chrome mirror needs replaced
Wait, is this three?
I'm a big fan of that vintage Toyota. Carry on.
One of the few (older) cars my wife would love to have, and you have three. Congratulations to you, this is another beautiful addition to the driveway/garage

Thank you
my wife wants efi and square lights
however I didn't tell her I bought this . Hoping when owner delivers it - I can give this to her and take her mint blue for myself
Finally the owner has day off
- smog check passed.
- delivery this weekend
very excited, as 62 with two time Oem paint were special order and extremely rare
ordered mirrors and bumpers and then into paint shop
If someone didn't know that "LC" was used to abbreviate "Land Cruiser" and the 62 and 60 refer to FJ-62 and FJ-60's then they would have no idea what this thread was about until the first picture in the second post.
Delivery done!
wife and kids commented "62 drives so much nicer and smoother than the other 60s. It almost drives like our FJCRUISER"
it drove very very nice. Going to paint shop next week
Great looking LC. Please get rid of that antenna and try to find the original one.

Yup. Have 3 Oem antennae here. Will change tomorrow.
In reply to mr2s2000elise :
I like that 2 tone. You going to buy them all?
In reply to yupididit :
Yeah Oem two tone is rare and special order only on the 62. This being an 89, it was available.
interestingly my neighbor has a literal twin. He won't sell - I ask. But I still take him x mas presents yearly - so he one day does
To answer your question, If I could afford it, yes. But I can't
there is a guy on bat that spent $250,000 last 12 months buying 60/62 only on that site
In reply to mr2s2000elise :
They must be addicting, I'll be sure to stay away lol.
In reply to yupididit :
Stay in your Gwaggen lane
In reply to mr2s2000elise :
One day I'll have a Gwagon lane
Give me a ride !
I drove my cousins in tokyo last year for a week (diesel new one). It was excellent
One more week till pickup
pics from last week
Another one?! Lucky you. And you're doing the manual swap for the best of both worlds!
