🎶SPC baked beans and spaghetti for hungry little human beans🎶 I can't be the only one who remembers the ad.... Sweet find Jesse, it's like taking a hard working Jillaroo out somewhere fancy and she's all dressed up and wearing lipstick and heels, sexy as hell just not what your used to seeing.
Nice vehicle. Good colour. I can appreciate why the rear aircon is essential. Appears to be set up pretty well for long term use. Thank you for showing.
I can't believe it was destined for scrap 😥 I'm so glad she's with someone who loves her now 😌 is that window switch cluster off a LHD? my switches are in exact reverse order with door lock on left then drivers window and back windows to the right.
Bought an immaculate top spec manual 1987 JDM HJ 61 with 87K km in 2002 for $4100 US including shipping to Canada, drove it for 10 years and sold it when it was 25 years old January 2012, someone in the US paid me $30 K for it. Loved that vehicle, would have kept it if it weren't for the 100% import duties in Thailand, where I'm currently located.
@@MrLandcruiser The tax is to protect the local vehicle manufacturing industry, dealing with customs would also be a nightmare, so I bought a new Mitsubishi Triton here instead .
When we complain about the price of new Landcruiser's now imagine being able to buy a house for the price of a Landcruiser. The LC300 Sahara is about $150,000 the cost of a 4 bedroom fibro house in my street is $1,800,000 or to rent a 4 bedroom house is $1300 a week and a 1 bedroom unit is $600 a week. A new built house on the beach is over $3,000,000. Let that sink in and i still find the new 70 series over priced at around $80,000. Is something wrong with our economy now no local manufacturing jobs a qualified cabinet maker, spray painter, panel beater, chippy ect cant get a local job that pays the rent a week after tax, even in the shitty suburbs here its $800 a week rent and what you save on rent you pay extra in insurance premiums on house, cars, boats, caravan, fuel, ect Then we add on the rising cost of food, alcohol tax, fuel and electricity costs. I wish i could buy a house for the price off a top of the line Landcruiser in 2023

I always wished the Sahara were offered here in the States, what a find and to think it was almost junked and torn apart. Thanks for bringing it back.
I'm sure a lot would have been scrapped in there day
Great looking machine, nearly bought one "then" But the 80 came out ,still got the 80 and just come back from Cape York and still running strong 💪.
Right on!
I remember Roothy saying that the 12HT needs lots air that snorkel is very small might need 4'' snorkel upgrade

Ouch thats a big tax

That 12HT would be hungry for some air with that snorkel i reckon
Does look small
That's so cool 😎 🤙
Cheers mate
Fettling is a word that Fred Dibnah MBE might have used in a sentence.
Absolutely one of my hero's!
@@Functionalshitbox Yes. He was a gentleman and a craftsman.
One of my favourites from the recent past.
RIP Fred Dibnah MBE.
Now that is sex on toast !
Amen I love toast
