The full thread is over on the Landcruiser 70 series forum:
https://forum.ih8mud.com/70-series-...ject-inigo-87-bj73-landcruiser-lhd-spain.html
But here are some sneak peaks, so go check it out!
Well the 10+ year quest for a clean, rust free, removable top, mid wheelbase, Left hand drive, 70 series landcruiser has finally yielded us this fine beauty. With the help of Landcruiser 70 guru, Hugh of Safari LTD, we have the unicorn vehicle through JDMLandcruisers.com to start this long awaited project. Spain must be a great place to live if you are a BJ73, as this there is no rust, and even the original paint is in good shape. The "Mi Toyota Es Fantastico" decal on the rear window is the only modification so far, and it will stay! Our latest addition to the our "familia" of land cruisers will be named "Inigo" Montoya. For those that haven't seen princess bride
