After months of searching

I found the perfect base to build my new Overland Adventure vehicle

1997 Landcruiser

80 Series VX

Manual 1HDT Diesel

It’ll take about a month to restore it with the help of the local team I’m working with… thankfully we already have almost all the parts we need to complete the build and an original restored motor ready to go…. boy am I excited ☺️🙌🏼 dream come true for me

Thank you 🙏🏼🙌🏼

My first Overland build was a 98’ a Toyota Hilux, and I loved that truck… but she was more like a tractor 🚜 than an adventure vehicle haha…

This time I will have power 💥

I have 1997 lx450. Good luck we the the build. My family loves the truck. It gets better with age. Especially when I keep replacing stuff. Just bought new window tracks, tie rod ends and some other random stuff from amayama the other day. Where are you located. It's cool to see a vx that is left hand drive. I'm in the US in PA

That’s a monster! Beautiful truck and that came with some nice upgraded options vs the VX… You’ve got the gasser? This one has the 4200 diesel 1HDT… I’m down in Paraguay 🇵🇾 bordering Argentina 🇦🇷

Thanks I appreciate the kind words. It's just a stock LX450, doesn't even have the front or rear lockers, but we just just do some very light off-roading on the beach once a year. Other then that it's our family hauler. In the US the diesel was never offered so yes it's a 1FE-FZ. I would imagine you have some great off-road opportunities in that part of the world.

Yea these babies are just amazing, the older they get and the better you maintain them the more you appreciate just how tough and well-built they are
