Hi,
So I have finally got my hands on my Father-in-laws truck, don't worry he is still alive.
It is a 1993 Land Cruiser VX Auto Station wagon with the 4.5L 1FZ-FE engine and a Japanese import.
The father in Law only really used it in the bad weather, its been a great job in the snow the last couple of winters but didn't get much use during the summer, so I have taken it off his hands.
I have attached a few pictures below, it is a surpise for a car of this age to have a cd player and also has this cleanAce stuck to the ceiling, anybody know what it does?
So mods, took the 3rd row of seats out over the weekend!!! Thats about it so far, I really want to get it checked out first, make sure it is a good base to mod before spending money.
Plans will be to use it as a camping base, to speed up the whole arrive at campsite and get settled in. Would love to get one of those family roof top tents but not sure they take 2 adults and 3 kids (which are getting bigger).
Planned mods would be dual battey, invertor, plus electic hook up, upgraded sus, and drawer system in the back, anybody recess a gas stove in the drop down back door??? And obviously a snorkel to drive to the shops.
Big plan would be to drive to India in the school hols 1-way I think.
Enough rambling - look out for a mountain of questions.
cheers
