This restored Gulf-spec 1993 Toyota Land Cruiser FZJ75 is powered
by a carbureted 1FZ-F inline 6-cylinder engine paired with a
5-speed manual transmission. During the restoration, this chassis
was completely torn down, sandblasted, repainted and reassembled.
The new body was extensively repaired to remove dents and replace
damaged panels. The paintwork consists of polyurethane underbody
protection, epoxy primer, and Standox single-stage paint in
Toyota-matching 045 White. The drivetrain was reassembled with new
components, seals and gaskets, and all broken items were replaced
with OEM parts where possible. The refreshed braking systems
include a master cylinder, front pads and rear shoes, and rotors
and drums have been resurfaced and are within OEM specifications.
The interior features new brown vinyl upholstery with coordinated
brown carpeting, and door and wall panels are covered in vinyl with
a diamond pattern. The dashboard components - including the pad,
instrument panel and speedometer bezel - have been replaced. Door
mechanisms are also new and allow easy up-and-down movement of
windows and door locks. Windows throughout are original and have
some wear marks from use in the desert environment. There is
non-factory tinting on side rear windows, which are sliding type.
The rear doors also have a tint film and are ambulance-style. The
restoration also included all new door and window seals, new
upholstery and a new headliner. It has factory air conditioning and
heat with updated refrigerant, and rides on new OEM 17-inch
steelies that are wrapped in Kumho Crugen tires.
