Cybertruck for Real Men: 1982 Land Rover 101 FC


I’m not going to be another blogger heaping logs onto the fire that is the internet hate for the Cybertruck because I don’t think I need to be another voice in the chorus of people who find them aesthetically repugnant. Will they look cool in 40 years? Yes, undoubtedly, they will be a novelty worth owning in 2065, but at the moment, I’d prefer to own a classic Forward Control truck from Land Rover. And this Land Rover has a chance to still be on the road (and look amazing dressed in movie prop gear) in 2065…modern appliance electrified i-vehicles…meh, probably not. Find this 1982 Land Rover FC offered for $19,000 in Bradenton, FL via facetilt errorbook. Tip from Dave in Tampa.

Looks like the basis for a world class overlanding rig.
Are those tiny lights on the front really DOT approved headlights?
No, the headlights are usually mounted in the big holes in the front bumper. It seems like there’s still some assembly required.
