Ok i have been chipping away at the inside of the car little by little lately and today she went out for a bath and a small drive, it was such a good feeling to get it out and running after so long.

I then took it a wheel alignment ready for wakie.

I took some pics of the inside, it is a little rough around the dash but i will tidy that up later. It has indicator lights, engine check light and a spare one in the dash, a external shift light controlled by the dash and a alternator charge light. The four red switches on the centre console are for the dash and the bottom knob is the brake bias adj. I have left room on the panel for a fuel level gauge to fit later on.

I have not attacked the doors as yet and i a thinking about getting a second set to attack and modify at a later stage, for now the power windows and mirrors work as factory.

I have to get some alloy plates made up for the floor so i dont destroy the paint around the pedals.

I will finish of the second fuel pump and surge tank on the week end and wrap the cage in padding around our heads.

No too many jobs to do and she will be ready to rock and roll.

Enjoy.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
