An Archaeologist's Rig (Part 17)

I came across this vintage Toyota Land Cruiser (FJ-40 series) in the AlUla Oasis in northern Saudi Arabia. If I could just get this sweet rig in my suitcase, I would surprise Vicki!

My daughter has an eye for such machines. Check out these sweet Landys she found in Germany. Follow the link here.

The sign at the entrance read “Home of Tree Climbing Lions.”
