    I saw the title “ultra rare” and I was like: why? It’s a troopy they’re everywhere and that one it’s the most basic of them all with the black grill and bumper. The only option it has its the lockers for the axles.
    Then I realize it’s in North America so I guess, yes, it is kinda rare.

      Yeah. Never thought I'd see anyone get excited about a ditty old troop carrier. On the Northern Territory you can see one every hundred kilometres or so rolled in the drain on the side of the road.

    Remember going on a few 4WDing trips in Australia when I was younger. With all of us 14-17 year olds sitting in the back looking at each other and the noise of the engine - we felt like we were in the helicopter at the start of Predator or a Vietnam war movie!

    It is a beautiful Troopy. I am concerned about the tyres. All the Troopys we have here I haven’t heard of 295’s and the offset with those rims will be a bit sketchy. Mate of mine’s Troopy lost his wheel under load with offsets. You have moved centre of gravity out and now rely a lot on the strength of the studs 🙈

    arrrrgh ... i do not know why - it must be my inner german - but it bothers me. THIS is not a 70. This is an early troop carrier (up to '99) - so it is a 75!
    And with that 24 valve badge on the back it is probably a FZJ75.

      So, by your logic, a Tacoma is super rare because they don't sell it in Australia or because I've never seen one? and I've been all over Europe, Asia and Australia and still never seen one. Jaguar XKS, now that is an Ultra rare car. UA-cam "Troopy Build", there are thousands of videos on them. Just because there not in America, doesn't mean they are rare. @@StaredownGames​

      ​@@BigFellaGames I see where you are coming from. It is technically not rare, but to him, it is, in the same way as your Tacoma is to you. Also, you can't count UA-cam, hell a McLaren is basically a Camry at that point. There are countless Tacoma videos as well. Sugar gliders too, and I went twenty years of my life without ever knowing they existed. lol
