Last of the truly off road worthy Land Cruisers
I may be interested. Where is it located currently?
I saw in the project chronicle that you mentioned that you were planning to bring it to the body shop? Did that ever happen? What sort of body work does it need? Being a New England truck whats the rust situation?

Hey there. It had some rust in the area where the back of the running board attached to the edge of the rear quarters/lower rocker panels. The running boards were removed and the rust repaired with clean metal. Otherwise, it just has some mild scale in places like the diff carrier and rear sway bar. It's overall very clean for a New England vehicle, leading me to believe it was at the very least routinely washed or otherwise not driven in the salt regularly.
