thats exactly why I bought my LV when I did.
Congratulations on a once in a lifetime buy. You did good and I respect that you bought it so another 28 didn't vanish. There was a time when I wondered if Toyota had really made these things and now I've got pictures of 5-7 different FJ28Ls. I can email them to you if that might help you out with parts that are missing. Post up some pictures of places where parts are missing just in case they're LV crossover parts. I am currently restoring my LV and might be able to help you out. Again congrats. Looking forward to seeing more pics.

Here’s a link I started for the build. Lots of pictures on there. Have a look and let me know if you see anything that others have missed. Won’t start disassembly for another month or so just researching for now. Any and all help very much appreciated!!

fwiw, i love the maroon/cream paint in the brochure pics hmm I need to add that to the potential colors list. If you are concerned with future value I would urge you to either leave it alone or do full-blown correct restoration. The downside to the latter is it would be penultimately difficult...

Utterly destroyed as it is though.

Really is. You'd basically need to source an FJ25 to properly restore that one, they should have left it alone.
Looks like a parts truck with cheap lipstick.

What? You guys don’t like tuck and roll? 
What wngrog said, utterly destroyed. From the scabbed on wiper motor box to the FJ60 tail lights and 100 other things, this vehicle just fell into the wrong hands. Someone put a lot of work into this thing, but the rebar Mirrors say it all. Love the "Pimp my ride" interior though. 
Just kidding.
