'78 Toyota Land Cruiser has been restored top-to-bottom. Aqualu hand-built aluminum body tub ($4,000), new fenders, new soft-top and doors and new corvette yellow paint. The chassis was fully detailed and painted, brakes are all serviced. The interior was re-upholstered and the dash has all stock instrumentation, knobs and switches. This truck has only 46,000 original miles! The straight 6 and 4-speed transmission function flawlessly. Tires are nearly new Maxxis Bighorns. A pair of excellent condition factory rear jump seats were just installed, and the carburetor was rebuilt by a toyota specialist. The exhaust is new with a stainless muffler. $8,950 ---

Thanks for all the encouragement guys! Tell your friends about this rig. It’s 100% ready for spring & summer fun. I would feel guilty taking this thing in the woods for real mud n rocks wheeling, but I did some snow wheeling with it last month! it’s a tank.
