Toyota Land Cruiser Fire Engine

[DOSZORROS]

The early FJ landcruisers, circa 1971, had a 6 cyclinder engine that was a take off from the 235 Chev but the piston rings were faulty on the early ones. I had one I purchased used in Anchorage about 1975.

I had to install new rings in the engine and then run it for about a dozen years, including teaching two teenagers to drive with it. Finally, too many trips to the beach and not enough baths rusted out the whole lower part of the body and fenders.

It was one tough machine.
