I intend on buying a car like this when I have the money. I've seen them being sold at a bargain with great engines still. Like you, I'll probably do the suspension, tyres, paint, maybe the brakes and a bullbar on the outside. And for the inside, some modern electronic equipment like an mp3 player, a nav system and new seats. Funny thing is, if treated right, this car may very well outlive all of us in the comment section 😂😂
Haha got the same year only just clocked 250000km, I’m the second owner from new best cruiser I’ve owned, kept factory rims & got em sprayed black instead of new ones. Can’t beat the 1hdt donk
Awesome job lovely Vid, Our 80 is a 1990 1HZ N/a with 800,000ks on it her, Doing couple trips Next year off to Nhulmbuy, Numbulwar, then Kalumburu, and later in year up to Penny and them mayb Cape Melvile,
Hi mate, what about the caster correction and adjustable panhard rod, do you install those thinks? I have the same lifted 80s and curious about it..TIA
Hi mate I did buy the caster correction bushes with the kit but I didn’t install. I wanted to see how it handled before I made the call to fit that aswell. It rode pretty sweet without. Cheers 👍🏼
Hi Mate, I got couple of questions.Is it necessary to put new springs as i was thinking to put bigger rims ,same as yours. Secondly where did you get the front headlights and grill?
Hi mate to fit 16x8 rims with 285x75x16 tyres you need a bit of room under the guards. if your suspension isn’t sagging you might be ok. Best to check with a tyre shop letting them do a visual inspection. Grill is the original I just gave it a polish. Headlight I bought new surrounds off ebay and new headlight protecters. Thanks
Getting it ready for panel shop will save you $ if you have everything and everyone organised you could complete it 3-4 weeks. But you know sometimes things don’t run to plan👍🏼
Hi mate it took about 4 weeks, spray painters was the time consuming part as it was the biggest job. Everyone involved received advertising on network ten so I don’t have a total figure. It was before covid, ball park figure to do something like that now 25k
@@unknownroadadventuresaustr5661 well of course I appreciate the vehicle. its great what you did. I just mention that since i have the same car and its problematic
Amazing transformation! Now I can't wait to paint mine.
Good luck they scrub up alright 👍🏼
I love the 80 series. I have had many of them. Great video!

Nearly looks like our 1996 80 series! Great job on the resto!
Thanks Patrick 👍🏼

Cheers mate

Yes and outlive 10 electric vehicles that are supposedly good for the planet.

Nice. It's looking good. I will be needing a paint job on my 80 Series soon. Paint is starting to thin out and become chalky in some areas.

I remember seeing this on Gumtree a few years back. Wish I had the money to buy it back then… ;(
Pre covid price would be worth 10k more now.
On the money with the XTR's have them on my 80.
Cheers mate 👍🏼
Great job done, what would be the ballpark figure final cost including the purchase and are ther any future mods ?
Hard to say mate as I advertised for the different company’s and received a discounted price. Sadly I had to sell the 80 series 👍🏼
Nice
👍🏼

@@unknownroadadventuresaustr5661 Thank you
Sick 80 mate May I ask what % window tint you’re running as I’m due to tint mine as well.
Hi mate I couldn’t tell you it was dark but still legal 👍🏼
look's great, what did it ruffly cost for the respray?
What I paid and what someone off the street would pay is to different things
I advertise for the shop and in return they gave me a deal 👍🏼
Looks a million bucks mate , my 80 has the same clear coat peel , how much did the respray cost you ? Love it
Cheers mate, hard to say how much I paid for respray as I advertise for the panel shop when my series aired on network 10 👍🏼
So you lifted and installed 33" tyres? We need details :)
Yes lifted then rims and tyres
Looks great. About how long did the whole process take?
Getting it ready for panel shop will save you $ if you have everything and everyone organised you could complete it 3-4 weeks. But you know sometimes things don’t run to plan👍🏼
Hey mate, love the 80, did you respray the side mirrors too? cheers
Cheers mate, I bought new mirrors off eBay
Thanks
What’s the best place for new mirrors and new mud flaps and new badges for the tailgate. My plastic Land cruiser badge across the tailgate is cracked…
Looks awesome mate! What did the paint job set you back?
I got a cheap price for advertising during my show on network Ten
Good work
What ARB bar and rock sliders did you get?
Delux winch bar and side rails and side steps. ARB only make one winch compatible bullbar for the 80 series
She is a beauty..Well done job Mate...Wondering how much it cost all up done?
Cheers mate, Hard to say as my sponsors at the time provided some of the accessories 👍🏼
Which company suspension you put in and what the price is please
EFS
How much time and money did you invest in the car for the Restauration?
Hi mate it took about 4 weeks, spray painters was the time consuming part as it was the biggest job. Everyone involved received advertising on network ten so I don’t have a total figure. It was before covid, ball park figure to do something like that now 25k
what did the spray job cost mate ??
I paid in advertising when my show aired on network Ten,hard to say what a job like that would cost these days
Where’s the roof rack and light bar? Nah just messing good job 👏
Thanks mate 👍🏼
What did that re-spray sting ya?
I’m not sure what they charge now that was pre covid. I advertised for them and they done me a deal so had to say 👍🏼
Can someone tell me what colour that is?
Factory 80 series green with metallic
I love rims
Black looks tuff 👍🏼
Hey mate, any interest at all in selling the rig?
Sold 80 series 2 years ago 👍🏼
Nice truck, but you did more than what you said you did. Replacing your lights for example.
👍🏼
Hi dad
Hi my man
did you realize on that car that the hamd break does not work properly? the car is to heavy...
All Landcruiser handbrakes need adjustments every now and then.
Appreciate the vehicle not the handbrake 👍🏼
@@unknownroadadventuresaustr5661 well of course I appreciate the vehicle. its great what you did. I just mention that since i have the same car and its problematic
@ 8:15 that is some sweet porn music!
Haha glad someone likes it 👍🏼
Loved the video, music was quite annoying.
Haha yeah wasn’t the best track 👍🏼
Music too loud🤕
Yes can’t change it now 👍🏼
Switch off the lousy music. Can't hear what you are saying
Yeah not the best song but I don’t give a fuck 👍🏼
