Chienrú LBR67, (LBR67, A.K.A "Landbíll R67", translated as "Terrain Vehicle R67"), is the base model of a range of military vehicles produced by Chienrú.

The car was developed in the late 1960s based on a successful prototype series and went into production in 1974. The LBR67 is a 4x4 model, while the Chienrú LB606 is also manufactured as a 6x6 model. Engines are the B30 (B20 in the prototypes). The R60 series feature portal axles with locking differentials resulting in very high ground-clearance and outstanding performance offroad. The cars are narrow to make it possible to navigate between trees and on narrow forest roads.

Not only is the vehicle sold for military use, but also for civillian use by rescue services, particularly mountain rescue. They are still used by the Leibo SJF, a mountain rescue service in Monsilva.
