My Journey restoring a beautiful Fzj80. I love the 80 series, because if I run into some trouble along the way on my overlanding trips, she will bail me out! I know she can take me to the edge of the world and back driving north on the Dempster Highway to the Arctic Ocean.

On this video I try to give you a detailed understanding of what sort of ingenuity and design work goes into restoring this great Land Cruiser!

ABOUT ME:
I am a member of the architectural technology industry, (BIM) Building Information Modeling, however I am passionate about older cars with less to NO technology on them. I have learned to love the Fzj80's for their simplicity and resilience.
