    HZJ75 Windscreen surround replace

    Where did you order your fibreglass screen from? Mine is utterly rusted out so will need a replacement. Not sure if I'll be able to get one here in NZ so next stop would be Aus.

    Landcruiser bj74

    I reckon you should remove the body and ship it over to New Zealand so I can have it Looks like it has much less rust than mine.

    Restoring to her former glory - BJ74 FRP

    Hey all!! Long time, no post. I've been pulling this old girl apart like it's going out of fashion. Hadn't formulated a plan on what I wanted to pay attention to first so was a bit all over the show. Unfortunately, she's riddled with rust, so have had to sit down and figure out how I wanted to...

    I've stripped a lot of the inside out then realised I should focus on the motor for the moment. As I recall, it needed a replacement head gasket but God damn I am struggling just to get the damn turbo off!! It seems every bolt is seized! Has anyone got a walk through on how to disassemble the...

    It was a huge mission! Theres a lot of rust in the windscreen sil and I'm sure there is some in the fire wall as well. Luckily, I have a brother who's an engineer/boiler maker, so he'll hopefully be able to give me a hand there. The doors are a full size door, which is a shame. It does look...

    Nope. First time doing it. I have tinkered around on cars in the past but nothing to this extreme. So will be a learning experience for sure!

    Awesome. Thanks! I'm hoping to have it home this weekend with any luck so will be able to check out the VIN number then. My dad actually left one of those service and repairs manuals in it, which will be hugely helpful when it comes time to start working on her. Will definetly keep y'all updated...

    Hello all! Fresh poster here. I've acquired this old girl from my late father. It's been parked up in the farm shed, growing an assortment of rust and organic matter and I'm going to strip her back and get her up and running and looking like new again. I don't know a h*ll of a lot about cruisers...
