Hey demon
Saw that in the same place you did...very interesting to say the least.
The Brazilian Bandeirante is the rig in question.
"In order to qualify as a Brazilian made car, the 3.4 liter om324-type diesel engine was procured from Brazil Benz"
"In 1973 the engine was upgraded to a 3.8 liter om314-type diesel engine Benz engine with increased power".
Per the Landcruiser 50th anniversary book pages 133-135
I say buy it...
Please post up if you do, so I can come by and check her out.

Very interesting right? For the price it may just be worth the gamble. I only worry about the transmission, and how that would adapt up. Other than that it would be fairly simple in my opinion.

Are you contemplating putting that motor in a 60?
or that project 40 thats in everyones future....
That Bandeirante is the size of 40, not sure if it would pull well in a 60
