This 1990 Toyota BJ75 Land Cruiser “Troopy” was imported in the raw from France 7 years ago. Upon arrival in Portland Oregon the transformation began into what many consider to be the ultimate “overlanding” platform. To that end, the Troopy has just returned from a 2.5 year trip from Oregon to Ushuai, Argentina. Given that I have two other Land Cruisers and a daily driver Jetta, it’s time to pass this more than capable truck to the next adventure seeker. The truck performed flawlessly on the Pan American highway with routine maintenance of oil, brake and tire replacement. Truly the word “bulletproof” describes its performance.

This is going to be a perpetual project for anyone who would (be) brave enough to take it on

It's hard to see how this is true, given that the seller has already taken it through 15 countries, 50,000km's, for over two years, and had no problems. It's all documented in his build thread for anyone interested enough to read it.

I've driven this truck both before and after the build, and can say categorically that it is much improved over it's original configuration with the 3B. Nothing wrong with a 3B, but the 1HDT is leagues better, performance-wise, and much better suited to a built truck. A 12HT has it's virtues too, but that's not the direction the OP decided to go. Neither the 1HDT or the 12HT
is "right" or "wrong" in any meaningful sense, since Toyota never equipped Troopies with either one of them.

...while carefully avoid to touch their little sensitive zones
