I own several of these trucks/parts for them and bought this truck to bring it back to life. As the motor was blown up when I originally bought it. Over the years of owning many of these 60s this is by far the nicest Land Cruisers I have owned. It’s drives tight and exceptionally smooth. This is 100% a turnkey driver that you could drive daily or heck drive cross country tomorrow if you wanted to.
Here is some videos links of the truck build and story-
