Toyota Land Cruiser Single Cab Truck Has Camper

The Toyota Land Cruiser is an excellent springboard into some mighty project vehicles. Having already built a Baja prerunner, an adventure sleeper, and a daily driver, Shannons Engineering has taken its hand to a 1979 Land Cruiser and converted it into a very impressive overland camper companion.

Apart from its mass of BFGoodrich rubber all around, this thing is full of accessories. Built by the guys at SE, the bed is fitted with anything you’d ever want or need when camping. Should the owners need it, they will have 16 gallons (60 liters) of water, a compressor, a slide-out workspace, and propane tanks at their disposal. 

Every inch of space on this truck is incredibly important as it is set to complete the “Big Lap” around Australia – a trip through the land down under via Highway One, the world’s longest national roadway at 9,000 miles (14,500 kilometers). Regardless of skill level, the trip can take up to 16 months, and it takes participants around some of the most picturesque locations on the planet.
