The goal of this build is to prove that something which is probably considered way too far gone is actually able to be brought back to reasonable condition with enough time, money and effort
As it sits as of 2/2
This picture basically sums how this is going to go: Rust and PB blaster
Intro post here
TLDR;
There is a lot of rust, will be lots of work just to get it back running and driving. I wanted a land cruiser project and I got one...
This will be a slow process but my goal is to document each sub-project as the whole thing inches towards being more complete.
My to do list/notes broken down into different categories in no particular order. This is by no means a comprehensive list just items I though of and wrote down. if there is anything critical or obvious let me know...
