25 year History of LandCruiser in Australia. (Pic heavy, 40, 55 & 60 series)

[Ben]

One of the guys I work with brought in an old magazine he found whilst clearing his loft out. The magazine is 30 years old and in it is a big feature on the 25 year history of LandCruisers in Australia.

I thought it might interest a few of you guys so I spent an hour scanning all the pages.

Looking through it now, some of the pages haven't scanned perfectly.

But hopefully it will still be of interest to some of you.

Let the history lesson begin.

















































































































































































Heres a few old adverts.









Most people probably think that ARB invented the air locker. That isnt the case they were originally called Roberts diff locks, and ARB still to this day pay a royalty for every single air locker thats sold to the original inventor who my boss used to know very well.



They also bought the Old Man Emu suspension company.

Brilliant, good effort with the scanning. I hope the magazine is well looked after, its a good bit of history

Do you mind if I use some of the info to write a little bit about it for my 4x4 Response mag? I'm always trying to balance the landrover based articles :-D
