Those ice trucks are insane. I watched a special on TV a few years back on them. The ones that crossed the artic had a huge bull bar in the front to keep the car from falling through cracks in the ice. Great find!

[EJ25RUN]

Those look like the ones they drove to Antarctica.

[larossa9]

[roscoe]

those look like a blast to drive wonder how much it costs to build up one lol

[03RCode]

The Iceland trucks are always badass. I'm usually a fan of a little more fender to tire gap, but can't deny that their badass and built right.

[larossa9]

yea they are the definition of sick, thanks guys, slowly adding more

[EJ25RUN]

For those that watch Top Gear, Arctic Sports were the ones that took Jeremy and James to the 1996 Magnetic North Pole.

"I'm on the bloody throne" :lmao:

[Capt._Ron]

isn't that an fj62??? i though the fj60 was a single round headlight while the 62 had the dual square headlights. I have an 89 that looks the same but is a 62.

[larossa9]

isn't that an fj62??? i though the fj60 was a single round headlight while the 62 had the dual square headlights. I have an 89 that looks the same but is a 62.

well yes, the blue one is actually and "Fj62" some people just refer to all of the 1980-1990 wagon as 60's, its just because of the small differences between the two, 1980-87 is the 60, it had the 2F gasoline engine, and the 2B, and 3B (4cylinder) diesels and there headlights, headlight housings, and grill, some interior too. the 1988-1990, they put in 1988 the 3fE which is in all american fj62's, then they updated the headlights and grill, this also only allowed automatic transmissions, but now you can buy a manual and swap, also elsewhere they offered the 1HZ and i think the 1HD-t, just diesels and turbo diesels, yours is an fj62, but still a 60's wagon to some


EJ that might bee my favorite part of all time

[larossa9]

I bet that Super Duty is still there haha. How the hell is that thing getting pulled out?

i was thinking the same thing, helicopter lol?
