I bought a 1978 40 series land cruiser that I am going to restore.
It has a B engine. So it will probably end up with a V8
I started by getting the axles sand blasted and painted, replaced all the bearings. And bought new 2" lift leaf springs, shocks, steering arms, brake cylinders and brake shoes.
Next the cab came off.
Then i took the engine out and took chassis to the sand blasters. I would have had it galvanised but i don't trust the forklift drivers at the galvanisers. Ive seen how rough they are throwing around trailers.
