Project W
Wendy is a 1992 registered 6 cylinder 3980cc Land Cruiser 60 Series.
She was first registered in 1992 in Tawau Sabah in East Malaysia and was under single ownership of a business owner. So its not a workhorse. Having just shy above 300K KM mileage, she is comparatively low mileage among all its peers. The condition of the engine is also one of the smoothest among all the HJ60 that we have encountered.
At this moment, we have retained its original patina. Certain panels have been sprayed previously by the previous owner.
The original chrome strips are still there. Car also comes with auto window all round.
We have done the 517 standard run through, full mechanical works, anything that we can get new we have replaced, the list of item changed goes into the hundred. Drive shaft, spindles, all bearings, seals, brake drum, brake shoes, brake pads, brake disc are all new. Clutch is complete set new including the upper and lower pump.
We did something different on Wendy, we put in a set of 17 inch steel rim from a UJ202 and match her off with BFGoodrich KO2 275mm wide rubbers. We have also installed military grade static HMR runflat mechanisms in the wheels that are manufactured by Hutchison Defense and Mobility Systems.
She comes with an original Long Bumper that is very characteristic of these generation of vehicle and the orginal PTO winch. The PTO winch has been fully overhauled in our hands and works like cream.
We have also sourced and reinstated the original Toyota Bullbar that mounts on top of the long bumper.
To bring it up the notch slightly, a half alumminium rack has been installed as well as a Front Runner 2 man tent. She is all ready to head out into the wild for an adventure.
She will be a very good base for a complete restore, which we can commission and get her back her details like the decals across her sides. As well as new chrome trims to replace those that has dulled with the time. Or you can just take her as she is, fully mechanically sound and ready for any adventure, in her original state.
