FMS has released a 1/12 scale replica of the legendary Toyota FJ45. Back in the 1960s, Jeep’s leading model, the CJ5, was still bathed in the glory of war. The Wagoneer, the originator of luxury SUVs, had made its first sound, Detroit Ford Bronco and Chevrolet Blazer followed. At this time, in the field of the world auto industry, the United States is the undoubtedly leader, and there is nothing else in the field of 4WD off-road vehicles. At the same time, on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, at the foot of Mount Fuji, a square and simple off-road vehicle rolled off the Toyota production line, and a legendary story begins here.
The FJ45 pickup is a derivative model with a longer wheelbase and a car hopper on the basis of the FJ40. It was launched in 1963 and integrates the characteristics of low energy consumption and high-cost performance in the Toyota gene. It’s not as ostentatious as an American car, but it’s also very attractive, showing Toyota’s own style.
Carisma revealed the new 70’s Ford F150 replica build on the SCA-1E 313mm WB 2.1 Spec platform complete with LED lights. This is a piece of American Automotive History and will be the last of this model produce as a Ready To Run, and is sure to become a very sought after rig.
This LWB, 2.1 Spec Rig offers CMS (Chassis Mounted Servo), 1.9 true Beadlock 1.9 wheels and soft compound AT-AT tyres.
