Steve Irwins Toyota

[JMyerz]

Hey Everyone,

I've never had cable so always missed Steve Irwins shows, I finally caught one and I'm curious what kind of toyota truck he was driving.

OT: The shows I caught were great, RIP.

I believe it is a 79 series land cruiser with a ute conversion.

Wasn't it mostly a HZJ78?

I've seen him drive some Nissan Patrol pick ups in some of his shows, but ya, he had a few Land Cruiser 78s or 79s. That's what he drove in the movie too. Very popular rig over there. I don't recall seeing him ever drive a Hilux. Just basicly Patrols and Land Cruiser pick ups with the rear tray and canvus canopy.

If only......

utes aren't conversions, they're sold that way in OZ...

did it look like this? Cause this is my 79ute from Australia and boy do I miss her (nothing against my Runner but comeon...) :bowdown:

The 70series LC is hands down the most reliable and relied-upon 4x4 in the world

Too bad Toyota chose to give us the FJ Cruiser. I would've rather had that diesel LC78!
