Classic Land Cruisers

On this special Christmas episode I talk to Caleb Gordon about how the Land Cruiser that his parents brought him home from the hospital after he was born, became his Dad's Land Cruiser. Then after life typically happens he had to sell it but then was able to get it back and is now able to keep his promise to his own son Gabe that the 78 40 series will go to him when the time is right.

on this week's episode Robert Chestnut Roasted Chestnut on IH8MUD joins me to talk about his Fj55 that is getting the derustification treatment. We talk about how hard it is to remove rust but how easily it comes on.

Yet another guest from season one Leigh Evans comes back on to talk about how he went about doing a relatively easy LS swap on his 40 series, and how he is still trying to keep the beast subdued as to not draw too much attention to himself.

Peter Brusa comes back on to catch me up the progress that he has been having on his 40 series. I also wanted to get my honest review of driving his dream car the G43S from the FJ Company. We get a little side tracked with talk of "Wayne's World" which might lead to outsiders asking what is wrong with Land Cruiser heads.

After a listener mentioned Adam Woodiwiss to come on the podcast I reached out to him. Come to find out that his brother had a 40 series when he was younger then got one himself as an adult. Unfortunately the pinion up on that one and he later got another 40 that ended up having double frame frame reinforcements done because it had been used as a post hole digger turning the seat sideways and expanded metal on the passenger floor board to see the ground
