That thing's cool! Nice white paint job
Thanks man....paint is still original. However, I had some touch-up work done overseas.That thing's cool! Nice white paint job
Do you by any chance have the paint code for your paint? Ours have to be the same and I have some touch up work that has to be done
No, but it's on the VIN sticker on the inside of your door jamb dude.

It's in pieces at the moment, but it was in a front end accident and I'm addressing some rust issues in the rocker panels. Hopefully I'll have it put together by October.

4. 199k....great interior condition
5. Haven't done much, but it does have an in-dash dvd/gps, painted the wheel flares, front bumper and rear bumper, grill (no more gold), sanded wheels and painted. Lots to do!
6. Weekend Vehicle....or when my daughter requests to ride in the very back. She loves the 3rd row.
Long time lurker on this forum but just made an account! I figured I'd post my rig. I actually bought it off another forum member who bought it from another so it's been in the ih8mud family for awhile.

5. Personally I haven't done much to it, but it's had lots of work done to it when I got it. Mainly the 1HD-T engine swap done by Sheldon Walsh. I've never met him but I hear he used to be pretty active here. For a full list you can just see what I bought here. Since then I replaced the radiator, installed lots of LED lights, and put a kaymar bumper on the rear
6. I drive it occasionally in the city to help friends move things but really only take it out every other month for long trips. Been on a few trips off roading and camping through Baja. For a couple months it was in a garage in Cabo (a very secure one!) until I went back for another trip driving it back up.
Would love some maintenance tips beyond what's just in the manual. It's hard knowing what the right things to focus on are. I live in San Francisco, rarely drive, and don't have many knowledgable car wise folks in my social circles, so would love some advice/recommended links from you folks.

Very Nice! I am in Sacto. I am building a 94 FZJ 80.
1. '94 FZJ80
2. CJ
3. On road: "Cruiser" - Off road: Over the CB shes referred to as "The Unstoppable"
4. ~300k
5. For starters shes the "Get away" edition (aussie travel show);
2" King springs
Adjustable Koni Shocks
Hurricane extractors, 2.5" exhaust
Dual battery set up (honestly not sure which, was previous owners install.)
32" Yokohama Geolandars
Dual fuel Gas conversion (combined 180 litre)
Less conventionally, inside has been made a 3 seater to make space for tools/gear and my swag for those long trips alone.
6. Primarily she is my DD, but she's taken me to see the ends of my lovely country, beaches, mud sloshes hiding beautiful spots and of course to the tops of ranges to show me everything there is to see. The 80 series is a wonder of its own in my eyes! Thanks Toyota!
7. Photos! I have so many but only 3 (I'll use 2) here with me! They're all 2000k away! heh. The troubles of a traveler life

I just picked up a locked collectors edition after years of lurking here and shopping on Craigslist. Got it for a great price ($2k) and it runs well and has no rust. Downside is that it needs paint and is very funky inside. Major work is ahead starting with current efforts towards disassembly and build planning. Funny tidbit on this cruiser is that it currently has different size tires on the rear end and when I tested the rear locker it wanted to drive in circles.
