I love the color of your land cruiser!
No Pictures, but little things:
-> I found some debris in the prefilter for the diesel-pump (tiny glas-cup with a filter inside, used on the mercedes-engines)
I removed and cleaned it and found out, that there A LOT of debris, I guess from corrosion in the tank.
I changed the prefilter and the two normal fuel filters, both already a little bit dark. And I flushed the fuel tank. The old diesel was pretty dark/dirty.
Later I also found, that the tank only holds about 47Liters of diesel -> for a 4Liter-Engine
I most probably will change the tank to a plastic-Version with 55Liters, that's the maximum for the original position possible.

Appreciate that. I am partial to the stock colors but this blue does look pretty good.

Thanks. This old 40 means a lot to me. My dad brought it home in '77. Working on the refresh is my fav way to spend my limited free time. Slow going!
Installed the exhaust from manifold to tailpipe ..,,
I've got an aluminium tank in mine under all the front seats, gives me about 120L.No Pictures, but little things:

Seen a few long range tanks around if you're willing to deviate from original.
Absolutely a treasure! Congratulations.
Did you install a header?Installed the exhaust from manifold to tailpipe ..,,
Love what you're doing here. Awesome job! Following.
I'm living in Brazil, I was looking for some other tanks, but there is not so much avail. There is a Aux-Tank which will be installed underneath the car, but I already have a Inox-Exhaust-System there.
The tank over the whole front seats would be cool, never saw this down here.
There is a original Version under the driver seat with 63L for the Bandeirantes after 93. But my '89 has there the Battery-Box.
I'm gonna think about it, let's see. On the other Hand: I have a canister on the rack in the back and place for another two in the car behind the rear-seats. And the cases, that I really run out of fuel are selden.
