What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend? (74 Viewers)

I got a dilemma. The interior is a 10/10 (seats are like brand new under the covers and carpet is perfect). Runs like a top. BUT it has a little rust behind the driver’s wheel well and on the passenger side rear door. Negotiating. This will be for my son if the price ends up being right. Will know tomorrow!

Sounds like his first adventure into the automotive repair world is body work!

Rad Finder keepers? Love old metal.

It has been mine for about 15 years now, just had to haul it off some family property.
Didn't just steal it.

Show more pics of the 49. My Dad had a 49 Int'l that was green just like that one. I wish I had it back. I would SO make that a street rod!

Here are some more photos, the wife took them. Once I touched that old steering wheel my hand instantly turned black

My daughter got a lot of attention when she drove my 60 to HS. Not sure it was a good parenting move on my part to let her drive it

He's been around Land Cruisers since the day he was born. He's helped out with quite a bit over the years. He's been helping tear apart my spare 1FFZ-FE. He helped adjust the valves on my 92 about a month ago. He loves Cruisers.

What are your plans for it?

It is in about the same shape as the one we had (ours was green). We had to sell it on a farm auction after my Dad passed, along with everything else.

I still think it's really cool!

Went up to Elk/ Deer camp. Saw no elk and only small deer. After 17 miles of hiking and 5,000 feet in elevation gain I came home defeated Then saw a big ol buck cruiser right past the land cruiser at my parents place I guess they have me figured out.View attachment 1563139View attachment 1563140View attachment 1563141View attachment 1563142View attachment 1563143

The deer in the last photo looks like one of those target you shoot at. They are all over here in PA.

more progress on my bumper. And more parts missing from 4x4 labs. Every bumper and every accessory has been missing parts so far. Pretty disappointed with there lack of attention. I would recommend the kit if it was missing so many parts but at this point i can't. I will have to call them again tomorrow.

I don’t understand what is difficult about shipping everything. This is your 3rd or 4th post where stuff is missing from them. That is crazy!

I know. The kit is quality but it has really delayed my progress. They have been great about shipping out the missing parts but it's still pretty annoying.

Brought this back home, she has a newish heart out of an LX450. Got a rebuildable 1FZ now (like I need more projects), and a spare transmission.

Went wheeling at Tuttle Creek with TAC

 

[Bryanseye]

Put on fresh windshield wipers then popped the hood to give everything a 30 day onceover since changing the valve cover gasket. Dangit!

Went back to our favorite Hot Springs for a last Oct camp out. Great spot and we had the place to ourselves excepts for some day trippers.
We got in later in the day, set up camp and hit the hot springs with some drinks on hand!

I don't think they have a brand name, a guy in Karratha in the NW of Western Australia made it, think he only made a few
