Even i would buy that, seriously that was the last of the good cruisers plenty of personality in those beasts. I love it when someone puts the effort into a classic. Who said progress was a good thing.

just for the record that isn't a refurbish job thats a NEW CAR/ CRUZER have look at equipement inside some countries still use older body stiles, its left hand drive aswell, duel cab on top of that, lots of guys would kill for the ability to buy 1 of them older stile trucks if you looked hard enought you could probable get hold of one and ship it here.

Jamie that is a refurbished truck.
Done by TLC in california.
One like this sells for around 70k USD.
There is a huge market for old Toyotas in the states and some wild conversions are made, with some typicaly US big donk styles.
The 40 series mainly the 45 are still made in Brazil and are called a Bandianteri.(spelling)
Cheers Kev.

I've been told the back tyres don't like the V8 all that much.
Causes em to take up smoking.
They have drinking habbits as well.
Can't know for sure as it is only hear say.

Hey Kev. whats the web address for that TLC mob. They had some great piccys of a series 3 shorty landy a while back. The entire vehicle was polished alloy.
cheers
Mick
P.S.
A mob in England did the same thing for a series three. they built an entire vehicle from new spare parts in the early nineties.

I watched an imported SWB Cruiser do the standing 1/4 mile at a drag strip
many years ago it had a fully blown 450 chev in it watching it burn rubber on all fours was a spinout burnout.
