Thanks. Appreciate both comments but has to be an 80

Need some help here. Im looking to find a 80 to have completely restmod for a longer trip driver. I have a 62 that I daily drive and a 55. I want to be completely clear I have no mechanical ability so will be having someone do the work. Basically if you have seen the ICON FJZ80, I want something...

So weird that I googled and found this. I literally emailed them last night to see if was available. I couldn’t pay the full price but am looking for something close. Anyways they say it’s sold. Almost felt like I was annoying them asking about a link that active on their website.

TLC is a good call. Just wondering if there are others? If you want a Bronco, Defender 110 or Fj40 there are 40+ sites selling different high end resto packages. I haven’t seen any yet for 80s.

anyone know any high end 80 restoration company? Like an Fj.co but for 80s. I want to get rid of a Denali with an 80. Mostly drive a 62 but longer drives that doesn’t make a ton of sense.

interested to hear everyone’s thoughts on this one. I will get shot if I chase this as I now have a 62 and 55 which my wife asks why but this looks pretty clean and right hand drive would be fun. Is this “quicker” then my 62? BAT

funny you say that was just wondering if you can rhino line underneath. probably wouldn't do it with this one but would with the 62.

yeah the salt thing sucks. basically means I am going to stare at it for several months. need to move

totally appreciate the value of these forums. Did the same when I get other cars and couldn't figure stuff out. I have negative mechanical skills but searching these forums has helped find best part vendors and relatively easy projects I can do. Benefit of old cars versus newer that I have to...

I bought it. Personally feel like pricing things like this is very subjective. I drive a 62 as my daily. Ive been looking for a 55 at this level of shape that I can do the same. Even reached out to the TLCs and fj.co and was horrified what they wanted for a show piece I could never drive...
