Hello everyone. I'm new here. Benno from North QLD Australia.
I have been doing a resto on a 1994 FZJ80R AU Spec over the last 3 years. Was running/driving when purchased but due to no maint, not even an oil change, over the last 10 years of its life and 500,000Km on the clock it was in quite poor running condition. Was an inland car for most of its life and was used mostly as a Hwy Caravan tower. It has no serious rust issues, just a little on the gutter above the L/H passanger door where a roof rack was once installed. Have just gotten my engine rebuild finished and mounted back in the vehicle, a major milestone. Attached are a couple of pics as it stands ATM. Cheers all, happy wheeling.

You don't need that PS dash bar.
Give you $50 Canadian for it.
Includes ship of course.

It is getting there slowly, wrestling with wiring looms now and I might even be winning just a little.
