A few of my questions along the way can be found with a post search under my user name.

What is the condition of the motor that was swapped in? How many miles on the conversion? MPG's?

pics of engine bay, interior, exterior, & of any rust to blemarrfj40 at yahoo
 
Sorry for the slow response guys.

No the title has not been converted to diesel. Will work on getting pics out as fast as possible.

The motor came straight out of the box van off dove bid into the landcruiser. Motor has run great the whole time. Conversion probably has 500 to 700 miles on it. I have no clue what the MPG are.

Still working on pictures. Will email or post asap.
 
A few Photos.

A few people have asked about being able to drive this think home and home is like 500 to 1000 miles away. I'm all for a great road trip but I hate to give that kind of advice. I think the running gear on this rig is solid. The tires would be my biggest concern. The truck has been sitting for the past 3 years and hasn't done much beyond a bi-annual start up. I drove it around today and it drove as nice as the day i packed it up. It also now has a new 650 cold cranking amp battery.

I, did however, buy this truck, with a crappy Chevy 305 that vapor locked, in Denver and drove it back to Albuquerque. Made it 90 percent of the way only to have vapor lock issues 30 minutes from home.

If you have more questions, please let me know, i'm happy to answer.
 
Hi is the AC and heater both working properly? is this a 3.9 turbo diesel? how is the paint doing any rust around the cruiser? any other mechanical problems, thanks. :cheers:
 
That is a good price for a rig with a 4BT and an NV4500 not to mention the SOA.

Body looks good OP. if you want to sell, get a LOT of pictures of the undercarriage and the rest of the interior. If I didn't already have three Cruisers in my driveway I would attempt to pick this up.

Has it been in NM most of its life?
 
I know this an old thread, but..

Hi is the AC and heater both working properly?

Safe to say they are not, being the a/c lines and heater hoses are not hooked up.......:hhmm:

PS: thats one nasty ass air filter... K&N :eek: let the nasty on in...:meh:
 
I want that thing!! What a beast. Looks like a good price tag for all the work done.
