G'day guys, Its been sitting too long at the back of the workshop, so im tossing up weather to let her go....

after much research I have found, This 28 has the Japanesse built body, (most or all had the rears built locally over here) or they were streatched 25's
Its has had all the factory wheel cylinders resleaved with stainless steel including the factory brake and clutch masters, all the brake linings are rebonded with new linings and drums have been machined,
leaf springs are new, (built to toyota spec + 1 inch)
GM engine runs well but exhaust is leaking, gearbox and single speed transfer working fine, have driven it around the block,
This is as far as I can find, maybe the first landcruiser IMPORTED into Australia, unlike the 1960 that theise claim.

When I first posted this 28 up nearly 12 months ago, afew mudders put their hands up if it ever went on the market, sorry guys ive forgotten who you were.

Please refer back to my first post for pics

would love to find a home that will look after some Aussie history..
This is an expression of interest,
but money talks and im open to offers.:D

Cheers Cammo
 
Been getting asked about paper work and titles for the truck, In Australia the rego process is different, we dont require a Title just transfer papers that both partys sign when a car is sold. You will need to check with your local laws regarding importing cars from oversea and how to get them re-rego in your state/country.

I do not have a price on the truck, I am open to offers, If someone comes up with an amount that I like, it will be sold.. included will be a photocopy of the orig toyota workshop manual, the factory 28 leaf springs and factory 28 shockers, and the spare bumber bars (i think their off a 55 and early 40)

I cant put an amount on such a rare car and abit of Aussie history.

I just dont have the time to restore her myself.
Cheers Cammo
