A classic old school FJ40 Landcruiser, featuring a 350 Chev for more grunt and the ‘comforts’ of coil suspension in the front!
Built for F Class competition in the mid 2000’s, it may be behind its modern counterparts today but still gets the job done! Mike Black has driven the truck to two back-to-back Central Zone class wins in 2011/2012 before taking some time off. Later rejoining in 2022 to win again 10 years later!
