  • Опубліковано 2 січ 2020
  • My Journey restoring a beautiful Fzj80. I love the 80 series, because if I run into some trouble along the way on my overlanding trips, she will bail me out! I know she can take me to the edge of the world and back driving north on the Dempster Highway to the Arctic Ocean.
    On this video I try to give you a detailed understanding of what sort of ingenuity and design work goes into restoring this great Land Cruiser!

    Nice looking rig. I have a turbo 1997 LX450, it's need of a cosmetic overhaul. I noticed you spent a lot of hours preparing and installing parts back on to the rig. This is just another motivational video for me to get it done.

    I'm in the work of restoring my lc80 with engine overhaul, new booster, new masters, new fuse boxes and restored engine wiring harness. Transmission and 4wd is all in good shape fitted with new seals all around. Drive shafts and diffs are still in the work. Long process but rewording once finished.

    Awesome Rig and a real nice job. Looks amazing on that color. But why didn’t you put some more offroad gear on it? A descent winch, a snorkel, steel bumps, rock sliders etc. Ok if you’re not planning to go offroad … but than why an 80 series? I had two of these bulletproof ones, HDJ and FZJ … less beautiful but with some useful gear on it. Now I have a 105 .. which is a real strong beast. But the look of the 80series is just the best … thanks anyway for your very nice video. Enjoyed it very much. Best greetings from the Swiss Alps🇨🇭
