Looks great! Are those new 70 series signal lights? Are you in OZ?

Can't wait to see more pics!

 

[mickhi40]

Yeah i'm in oz and yes they are 70 series indicators. Much better look than the originals. I will upload some build photos shortly.

Here they are from SOR but they have the amber lenses.

I bought them from ebay in oz. The sellers store is called 'Iquay' and if you type Toyota Landcruiser 75 Series CLEAR CHROME Indicators X2 in the search box you should find them. $107.00 with free postage in oz.

Sweet! What's up with the blue diesel drivetrain for the 45?

 

[mickhi40]

The diesel is a 2h and auto box from a 60 series cruiser. We have a turbo manifold on the way and a brand new turbo waiting to go on it.

Dad was actually after Anodised Blue for the engine but seen that colour and liked it. He picked blue just to be different.
