good find. Yeah i've never heard of the sludging of the V8 either. Even in Oz. Maybe they tested a 100 that hadn't had it's oil changed or something!
I like the closing statement-
"Shop around carefully and watch out for the signs of abuse, and you'll end up with a good one. Buy a dodgy example and it will cost you plenty to repair. When you find the right bargain, it will be a friend for life."
Friend for life, this is how I feel about my Land Cruiser.

Also, if you have some time to waste, check out the webisodes on the webpage. They do a nice job breaking the CV on a 200.
A good trail repair and he drives it out, which I though was somewhat impressive.

I want to know more about this:
"There are several common engine conversions for those needing extra grunt, like the Chev V8 diesel or Gen III V8. Combine this with a locker and a set of gears to keep things turning in the rough. Gas conversions are common on the V8."
Considering Holden uses the Gen3 Vortec GM motors in everything, I wonder if Austrailian companies have conversion mounts. a 400 hp 6.2 GM motor would be nice in a 100 series.

Agreed.
anyone recognize the wheels on the cruiser in the first picture? good find by the way
Wait until you see the Turbo Diesel prices.........
They are high in demand so the price goes up.
I wanted a 4.2TD automatic, but couldn't afford it. Then the LX470 V8 came up for a good price.
The Chevy is available for the 105 from a Marks Adapters kit. They should have been more accurate.
