I BOUGHT MY DREAM 4WD! 2H 60 SERIES! EP1

[@chrismapley7513]

Nice buy mate I have a 61 series with the 12ht love it only 2 spots of rust in A piler

[@Sunderlanding_AUS]

give it the "Whistle'n'soot" treatment! those little 2h engines sing with a snail on the side!! excited to see where you go with it mate!

[@BuiltCruisers]

Turbo is needed😅

[@adamrichards2072]

I don't have any experience with a 60, but my experience with old landcruisers would suggest that if you put a modern "sport" seat in, the front of the seat will lift you legs, leaving less room for the stearing wheel.

[@BuiltCruisers]

Yeah okay

[@osha9864]

@@BuiltCruisers was going to say the same. Tread carefully as almost all commonly used aftermarket /retrofitted seats will sit higher.

[@Danielinthewild]

Mint find man! IMHO keep it classic and period correct like the rims. These old girls look great and function just as good without too much work. Keen to watch it unfold 🙏

[@BuiltCruisers]

That's the plan! Yeah keeping it classic at the moment

[@MicsarBuiltDesigns]

This is awesome Matt, must be very exciting to begin a new chapter. Look forward to seeing this project progress. We’ll have to do another colab soon😉.

[@BuiltCruisers]

Cheers! Yes will do!

Those kumhos are great tyres, wont let you down

I've got a 90's Prado mine is the LJ95 version, it's got manual locking hubs, manual trans and a 2.8L diesel

[@Coulslaww47]

You don't know how lucky you are, my 1988 Barn Door 2H has bits and pieces missing everywhere... wish I had a complete dash, carpet, tailgate etc.

[@BuiltCruisers]

Ohh believe me its taken 2 years to find this one.

[@Ishmael___]

Definitely a rare grandpa spec find! what a beauty👌

[@marcomac8824]

I had one of those. Absolutely indestructible. Wish I had never sold it!

[@BuiltCruisers]

Yeah there solid as!

[@Jesse__t08]

[@BuiltCruisers]

So keen for it!

[@lronpaw]

Youre starting with a good base there.. nice find!

[@BuiltCruisers]

I think so too!

[@charlesgacheru6964]

[@misterpotato4775]

HEY I saw you on instagram haha. and you're on my recommendations, I was that person who commented that I didn't like the bumper but I sure love Toyotas haha. Congratulations on buying a Toyota LC. Welcome to the family haha.

[@BuiltCruisers]

Aha thats me! Thanks!

[@louiskudlak2241]

Looking forward to the build

[@Bigcountry_littlelegs]

Was that old girl owned by a old truck driver, those mods look like things truck drivers do 😂. To improve the ride quality of the leaf springs ether pull the leaf packs apart and put some thin coats of moly grease (same as you will need for the swivel hubs/cvs) or if you dont feel up to that jack it up and put chassi stands under it so you can fully suspend the axles and get some pressure pack spray grease and spray it between each leafs, it just lets the leafs work nicer and have less friction between each of them. For springs and shocks i dont know on leaf cruisers but with the leaf spring hiluxs efs is generally considered the best sorted for ride quality. A white roof and bonnet would be an option and would also help keep temps down in the car. If you can peal back the headlinner at the rear at minimum and give the roof a really good coat of lanotech steel seal or fish oil or even just oil, or drill 3 1/8in holes in each side of the roof so you can do it yearly (a white 60 was shown with it on the mr landcruiser channel) also make sure plenium where the wipper are is spotless clean with no leaf litter etc. Anyway have fun with it hope to see it at the Adelaide 4x4 show

[@BuiltCruisers]

Cheers! This year the prado will be at the 4wdshow!

[@fatmanoverlanding]

Congratulations. 👍

[@sqfe]

How good! Can't wait for the videos!

[@xWeaponOfChoicex]

Congratulations Shane Gillis!

[@garethraven3933]

It needs a paint job the same as your Prado 👍👍👍

[@BuiltCruisers]

That would be cool

[@ZacyzN60]

Looks awesome🔥🔥

[@AUXITOLED]

Another solid video, Matt. Just straight to the point with everything! We released a portable jump starter. Can we invite you to do a review? We have emailed for an inquiry.

[@drtone]

Should be thanking the Grandpa for keeping it clean, than dissing.....Spectrum much....

[@FirstLightAdv]

Beautiful car.
