I had not checked your site when I made my post, Jesse. We have very happy memories of that red Toyota Landcruiser with a white top, front bumper winch, air conditioning by way of a roof hatch taken from a Seoul bus, and a rear rack that held three jerry cans. For three years, we drove all over the back roads of Korea in that vehicle, which we had named "Matilda" (as in waltzing). Our Korean friends called it the sobangja (fire truck) and our youngest two children can tell you stories about the long trips we took.

The coincidence of you designing models of both the 1959 Rambler Ambassador and the Toyota Land Cruiser is cosmic. At your web site, my Matilda is the one on the left.
