Default Cool Truck At Work Today

A client of ours drove his old Land Rover in to his appointment a few days ago. I forgot what year he said it was, it was like a 1960 or so. It is mostly made of aluminum alloy, including the body. Not sure if I like the spare tire location. It is in great shape for the year. A very cool truck indeed.

That is a pretty cool truck, but then again I'm into the classics mainly.

pretty neat ride. I think id rather have a 1960's Toyota Landcruiser though. The FJ's just look alot better.

I have the last day of tax season to deal with, ugh, but at least it is officially April 15th!
Yippie-ki-yah-muthahuckas! I'm going to Disney Land!

Ha! Too funny! I forgot about that movie! Hilarious!

don't we all Brad? i think that one was way funnier than the other one.

@ Brent; i guess you would've been blown away buy the shop that was across the complex from my work. the guy was a Land Rover specialist. can't remember what the name of his shop was anymore (he moved a few years ago), but he had two customers that had a total of 9 of these vintage trucks between them. they're unbelieveable in action. he used to climb the 5 feet between our parking lot & the lot for the shipping company behind us, to "test out" the 4WD system after he serviced them. i think it was more to just show off what the trucks could do.

while 5 feet doesn't sound like much, it was an incline of more than 60*! (i measured it since i couldn't believe it the first time i saw him do it)
