New HZJ75 project - Denmark

[Jespervangfalkenberg]

Hi guys

Back in Toyota restoration! By luck I found this project and couldn't refuse to buy it! It is a project that is already started and I guess I will be needing a lot of parts in the process.

I started to do the rust repair in the back section and I hope to have all the rust finalized next weekend! After that it will go to the carpenter and have a complete color change - what color I dont know yet

What a freakin nice car and project!

I have a HJ45 Pickup from 1978 and a HJ45 Troopy from 1980 in the 45section on MUD.

That's definitely a project and a half mate. Loved the 40 series builds can't wait to see what happens here

Very nice Jesper! That is a lot of fire wood your neighbor has stacked up. Are there any trees left there?

I'm looking forward to the build!

That looks like a nice troopie. The only thing I can see wrong is the steering wheel is on the wrong side.

 

[Jespervangfalkenberg]

Just stumble over this in one of many boxes! Have you ever seen this before? is it an original assessory?

 

[Michael B]

Jesper just guessing but it looks like an aftermarket step for roof access.

 

[Jespervangfalkenberg]

Maybe - but the nutserts looks genuine and the bar looks like something from the 40series - anyhow it is funny

40-50 cm below, there is nutserts but the bar is missing!

 

[Jespervangfalkenberg]

Hmm - just got an answer from a another forum - it is original!

 

[Michael B]

Interesting! So they are steps?

 

[Landpimp]

they still come on Toyota of Gibraltar Troop Carriers

 

[Jespervangfalkenberg]

I would love to get hold on those sliding windows!!! They are steps for the roof rack - awesome

 

[Jespervangfalkenberg]

My plan was to get all the rust done today and it went okay until I ran out of MIG wire - not good! My wife is working and I got no car... so decided to do other stuff. Found some issues

 

[Jespervangfalkenberg]

One door left - the body went for the painter today

Bye Renago
