There are a ton of 90-92 diesel swaps out there ( not a big deal swap really) . Now the Lexus is somewhat of and oddity, and not so simple. I hope this isn't going to turn out to be another unfinished Lexus build gone bad. Or have you not even physically even started yet on the Lexus? Hmmmm?

Have not even started yet. Im actually on the road in the Lexus camping now. The 91-92 would make the swap dead easy. But I'm looking forward to challenge of the Lexus plus Ill get way more WTF looks in a diesel Lexus. Especially when I pull into Starbucks. It will not be abandoned as another unfinished project, that is not my style.

Ha ha ,that's what I wanted to hear, it will be a sweat rig when your done,for sure.

 

[Tmax]

why not put the lexus grill on a diesel and be done with it.

87 - HJ60

I spoke to the owner of this wagon. It's located in south Surrey and he is asking $800 OBO as it is destined for the scrapper if someone doesn't come ASAP.

Good parts rig for one of you hoarders

 

[Fantom]

And gone! Hooked up Robert C and Kim with it, between the 2 they will enjoy the parts for a price that was...silly...



And there's almost $7000 in receipts for transmission rebuild and torque convertor work not even 100,000km ago. Good score, for them, thanks for posting it!

The frame is beyond rotten and the body is garbage from the mid section down. Feel bad for the young kid that bought it recently for $1800 from the original owner. Head gasket is blown, there is a loud knock in the engine (likely a precup) but otherwise the mechanics are clean and look good.

RE: 87 HJ60 - Nice One! I knew this would not go amiss in this forum I would have grabbed it myself except for lack of space to house it.
I am in need of front windshield wiper linkage for my 62 if one of the new owners has one to spare

You should ask Kim, he might have 1 .....or 4 ....
It would have been a shame to see all those pretty parts get recycled into pop cans and other crap. So this way it gets to live some more. It's a good thing I don't have any 2H engines, otherwise I would have grabbed it myself. It was a nice score for sure.

Thanks Mat - yes, if it was a BJ60 with $7000 in receipts on a 5 speed etc.. I would have secured it, too

If it was a bj or hj60 with a 5 speed it wouldn't have $7000 worth of repairs unless everything got replaced

You're doing this on purpose, aren't you? Tempting me away from my 3B's and offering up a 12ht WITH a 5 speed. Damn you!!!

They just keep showing up !
I know you'll stay faithful to the mighty 3B

 

[Enigma]

That little pick-up with a 12HT wedged in there would be a rocket

But knowing Matt's bad luck streak there will be a broken discontinued part in that engine....

probably too much cost to justify repairs required.

Definitely not a true Cruiser Head!

 

[Fantom]

I would carefully inspect this one for rust

This one looks familiar

A little damaged but might be worth it

The lower thirds of the quarter panels and doors have been rust proofed (rhino lined)

Yep, great stuff for hiding rust and ensuring it spreads.
