Hallo my friends!

I want to present my new restauration project: Toyota Landcruiser FJ55
The car was bought from Germany.

I start full restoration for this car.
First i start to dissasemble the car... with some surprises...

Nest of mice and wasp's nest.

I'm sure I'll need your help information and parts for this car.
Until now i make restoration just for 6 series...

All best
Max

Ich entschuldige mich für die noch nicht in Deutsch zu schreiben. Ich weiß wirklich nicht, und ich weiß nicht, Fehler zu machen und nicht verstehen, was ich meine. :ka:

Danke (das ist kein Google) :wink:

Congratulations!

You have bought a lot of animals and a cruiser. The animals are not your coming problem

.it will be the 55 by itself. The 55 was quite seldom sold in Germany, and most of them rusted away in a very short and unbelievable time. There is no rust protection from factory, after that at least the second ownner refused to invest in the 55.

I know a hand full good ones and another two hands of bad welded wracks with fraud paintwork.

Good luck with yours!

Dirk

Hello Max,

I´m quite shure that your team, as it looks at the photo, do not have any problem with each animals in the car...
By the way, your garage, your equipment seems to be very suitable to reach the best result.
Is it the BasicLine from Twin Busch at the background?

Good Luck!
Toni

After i have seen the pictures above of the Nissan Patrol frame and drivetrain i have no doubt that you solve the 55 problems easily.
Keep us informed with the progress.

Best regards!

Almost every parts are sand blasting includind full frame.

After that, parts go to powder coating paint and the frame go to galvanising.

Frame and some parts need repair and welding before any paint.
