Can we all take a moment and thank Sabrina for letting Shawno do what he does! 🤘

[@kennethwatson2492]

Has to be literally the most understanding wife EVER!!

[@roslyngavin4212]

Very well said thank you

[@DB-yj3qc]

The question is how does Shawno leave on trips. 🤔 Separation brings closer to the heart.... but I'm sure he's glad to be back from USA.

[@samhall7626]

Feel sorry for anyone with a handbrake wife lol 😂

[@mastersKaaP]

Don't let Graham find out you have a wife, he'll be devastated.

Let’s all take a moment to appreciate Sabrina letting shauno live his best life. She seems like a keeper

When he calls his wife "mate" 😂

First time seeing the wife my friend and Sabrina is an absolute gem!! Any woman that skips with excitement to experience more horsepower from a diesel 4x4 and obviously enjoys life as a 4x4 wife is a total keeper, lol!!! She even rubs it in when she senses jealousy of her newly juiced up Yota!! Love it!! 👍🏻😎👍🏻

[@zoezoe610]

Nice to see Shaun's other side which he respectfully keeps private. Well done buddy.

[@Josh-ZR2]

You and your wife are awesome together, good for you buddy your such a good guy and inspire me everyday brother. Keep the good work up.

[@haylz06]

You guys never stop making me smile, just totally addicted to what you guys are all about, the adventures, the builds, the mates.. i just love every bit of your channel, thank you for making my life better as it gives me so much ambition to get out there and enjoy life.

[@omgyoutubecrazy6723]

Can't wait to check out the rig 🎉

[@tobyjacob8701]

Wow, Love this 80 series, I still remember that video too, when you first bought it. Jeez I want an 80 series, gonna start looking!Awesome rig mate! Greeting from PNG 🇵🇬!

[@ManzoGee12160]

I have a 2004 Toyota Landcruiser 79 series 1HZ, and I love it but I cannot deny the fact that, I am dying inside to own a 80series. They are the best 4x4 SUV that were ever made. Shauno, the 80series is on another level. 💪💯

[@markharwood4240]

105 better

[@DodgyModsGarage]

Absolutely loving this build series! I have a 95 GXL 1HZt in the same colour so I like that you kept it that way. Keen for the next episode!

[@79series]

Love the colour coded door handles and black window frames like the Sahara's. Best paint combo. Sahara headlights also look clean

[@CPM_automotive]

Wow, 😲 absolutely beautiful HDJ81 Land Cruiser!!!🎉🎉

[@romeomatadi-mushipe8946]

❤she's part of the 4wd24-7 family 👪 it's so good to see her.....next time she goes offroad with the 80 try to keep it stock

[@michaelhansen4x4]

Great video. Looking forward to more on this build!

[@hallowadventure]

I've just inherited my father in law's 80, full Granada Spec. Slowly dumping money into it to make it reliable and safe to use as a family car, and this is the classic look I'm going for, looks great mate! Can't wait to see whats next.

[@iDEMONiDEVIL]

Nice work. Good that you kept the factory colour.

[@user-bq7ct8yw7k]

Certainly came up a treat thats for sure. Great workmanship and effort taken doing the build.😁👍Sounds Awesome! Very helpful,useful and informative interesting video. Thanks for sharing it. Enjoy the new Transformation of the big 80.👌😃 Well done guys!!!!

[@RouxB]

I just bought a 2023 Hilux Legend (in South Africa we call it Legend and in Australia its called Rogue i think). Ordered the canopy, seat covers, snorkel etc but watching some 4WD 24/7 with a beer on the couch - I think a tune and 76mm free flow is in order. Thanks for the inspiration guys!

[@scotttan6377]

"It's now a wolf in sheep's clothing" - love the transformation !

That RS6 in the background at 7:25 😍🤣

A grandpa spec 1HD-FT are becoming unicorns these days. I'd like to have one to keep my grandpa spec 80 Series w/1FZ-FE company. She looks like a keeper. The 80 Series that is. 😁

[@gregdogg10]

What are the ones to look out for ?

[@seldic]

Love the Build!!!!...Front left spotty is scew!!! HAHA.....wish my ZD30 would get a make over like this!!!!

[@e.c.8668]

So cool to finally meat the missus (virtually, of course). So now you've got to get her out on the trails with you. You all should do a show where all the ladies join the channel for a trip.

[@Captain-Awesome]

You are winning at life sir! What a beauty, the Land Cruiser is nice too! 😏

[@bringbacktheoldnormal1614]

Happy wife happy life smart man Shauno.

[@maverick2242]

Any woman that loves an 80 is a keeper and a real gem.🤩

[@SWHBOYCE]

Simply put ,the 80 Land Cruiser is a superior vehicle .Even better with a diesel .( I'd prefer them with a standard transmission though...)@@maverick2242

[@krisbrah29]

Shauno mate, eagerly looking forward to the next part of the American adventure

[@lippedgerm]

Love all your content!

[@bmckinnon1922]

Love the build vids

[@madcat4563]

I was wondering the other day what happened to that 80. Honestly, I would have left it as is with the patina. Pulling the engine out, I would have definitely done in the case of how thorough the autopsy and modifications are. Colour came out really nice. Great catch with the main bearings. Power mods would have munched that down the line. Great idea with the upgraded auto box cooler. Rims can do with a cleaning/restoration.

[@Dale_D589]

Bloody ripper shauno, nice one mate

[@rodgeorge7244]

That is one cool 80

[@tubeme4vr]

Top work. Amazing

[@jamesfuller5379]

Beautiful job, the 80 deserves it. The last proper honest 4wd from Toyota. I have the same colour, even have the same tyres.

[@boomcr7302]

You have found your soul mate! When Sabrina is by your side you light up like a Christmas tree, it’s fantastic to see!. Also a beast of an upgrade mate! 🔥🍺😎 Best wishes to you and the family 🍻

Mine just bought a 4runner (were in Canada) I took it for a ride and now she wants me to upgrade it 😂

[@brockz_twnk]

Love your vids ❤

[@craigmooney2630]

Nice set of wheels & a front bar she’ be mint “

[@karloz83]

Awesome build and great to see. By the way Shauno is swimming off the centre console. Might be needing a brake upgrade

[@nevanalthaus2387]

The old 80 starting to look nice, mate.

[@glennt3080]

Props to you Shaun for looking out for the misses - great.... but im waiting on the 2nd part of the Simpson in the old utes - how many more months mate? Cheers.

[@hughshrimpton1509]

Love the colour

[@duaneleroux5956]

wow, amzing work, and here I am too scared to replace a petrol pump on a Ford Fiesta hahaha. Mind shift needed

[@DCA001TUBE]

I couldn't help but notice you didn't tell her how much, I guess your not that silly🤣

[@kateotoole6690]

[@shanebrbich5698]

Love it! Mine is exactly the same! Same colour, same year same engine 🤔 and lacking the power 😔

[@paulsmit8147]

First time 'meeting' the misso, when do we get to see her on the track..... Thanks for the share 🕶🤙👍

[@dylanslater83]

Was just recently wondering if you were going to do anything with this, thanks for answering my question.

Had an 80 1hz in that colour and I miss the old girl every day and my son wants to own an 80 gxl like my old girl

[@wanrapsyndor4095]

With that kind of power i think we need to upgrade the front bumper made it looks more agressive. Just a thought 💭.. By the way it looks good already 👍.

[@Priceless-1312]

Shaunos punchin 😂

[@timking2194]

Beautiful wife nice to see her on your show

[@Ozzy-parker]

I've got a 77' dodge truck, 245 I6, it make's at least 70 horsepower, and its perfect for me.

[@deanwebb1362]

Graham will have to make one Now lol😂😂😂

[@brendenpace4333]

Russell and rod from wyong autos is 1 Street away from my shop, couldn't recommend the highly enough 👌

[@simonjenkins6455]

[@mitchmcbride6053]

Mate it’s beautiful what a beautiful car well done mate looks amazing you gotta get your missus more in tje videos mate she is your other half would love to see some solo trips with you and her amazing stuff mate

[@danold6443]

Great build. Leave it there tho!! don't lift it or chuck on 35's/muddies. Do a brake upgrade as its your wifes car now. It's just perfect as it is, don't ruin it whatever you do!

[@maverick2242]

Some sick 16" rims with a 10" profile and good AT 33's though would make it hook up and ride a bit better, but as a Mall crawler it doesn't need 35s, totally agree, plus Shauno will de take it on the tracks if she has 35s🤣 not that he wouldnt be past stealing the 35s off Darryl or Sooty for that matter.😂

[@brantcarruthers6519]

Shawno hanging on to the centre console for the first, I would be the same

[@laloolhouvum1634]

New wheels and tyres would be even better in my humble opinion. I didn't say it's bad, but you know a little more cosmetic upgrade would be even better, cuz now that it is Mrs Shauno's 80 series.

[@Tourn4x4]

What a beast 😍😍😍

[@hoges73]

Yep great build so far when's the next episode

[@marknisbet1990]

Shauno you make me cry which I had of of these guys before I spent 35000 on my 80

[@harry8506]

I'm glad you stayed with the original colour Shauno

[@TundZ131185]

I'm interested to hear what such a little rework and tune of the old FT would cost. The same for the rebuild of the auto? Any idea / guess?

[@stewatparkpark2933]

$20,000.00 plus the paint cost .

[@davidgiurfo8274]

Siiiiick!!!!!

[@bryandale7125]

Yes, yes you are.

[@Zobby447]

Finally an FT

[@carloscampos4455]

Nice job!!!!!. What happened yo the brakes? Only power

[@swarm270]

yep got the same colour

[@rogerhobday8369]

If I got 6 winning numbers I wouldn't go out and buy some fancy brand new cpu controlled 4x4! I would definitely buy a 80 series LC and do as you have done. The engine guys did a great job and it was great to see a drum of HiTech oil in the background. Not Castrol crap! I use HiTech transmission fluid in my AWD Territory, have been up the Great Central Road from Perth to Uluru pulling a camper trailer and was very impressed with the trans fluid. As for the 80's series LC I think Toyota peaked with that model!
