I have owned this about a year. Just finished the restoration/restomod. This is an excellent technical form that has helped me get this done. Some basics:

2006 LC100 CA car
AHC - 1.5" lift
Tundra steel wheels
200k miles
Maintenance history back to new
Full (glass out respray) in Heritage Blue/Olympus White

Nice truck! Well done on the style. Front end is clean. I couldn't go with an AHC lift--I enjoy the comfort at the stock height too much. LC + AHC is an awesome combo though.

Am I reading those tires right: Toyo Open Country A/T's?

Thanks. I honestly didn't not notice any real loss of comfort with the small lift. I did flush and replace all the AHC fluid and set the pressures. Yes on the Toyos - 265/70/18 with 1" spacer.
 
Nice!

Did you DIY the paint job?

You may want to consider replacing the radiator especially if it's original - it looks like it's browning in the picture.

If pressures are corrected ride isn't affected ;)

Those colour coordinated floor mats are a nice touch.

I'm pretty sure those floor mats are the woven vinyl mats made by Cocomats. They are custom made, of a very high quality, and with a price tag to match. They are very popular on vintage and antique cars, especially the Mercedes-Benz and Porsche crowd.

You are correct! I have primarily been focused on vintage BMWs for the last 15 years or so. This Toyota is new territory for me. The mats are from Cocomats. The colors they offer just happened to match up with the colors of the truck.

They paint was done by a professional I know as a side job. I will take a look in records for a radiator replacement. Cheap insurance to replace if it is original.
