** Body Condition **

This Land Cruiser lived most of its life in South Carolina before I purchased it. Due to the exceptional care by the previous owner, rust was not a factor with this vehicle. It was repainted piece by piece using factor White (color code #031) in base coat clear coat. No expense was spared with the paint work on this Land Cruiser. West Side Rods and Customs in Thomson, Georgia performed the work. The paint process consists of:

2 coats of polyester primer to seal the bare metal then any bodywork on top of it. Follow that with 3 coats of polyester primer. It is then block sanded with 120 grit, 180 grit, then reprised with urethane primer. Finish sanded with 320 and 600 grit. 3 coats of base and 4 coats of clear are applied, color sanded, buffed and polished.

The hardtop had never been removed before painting. ** ALL STEEL ** No fiberglass, aluminum, rhino liner, or diamond plate on this beauty. New Toyota OEM parts include: front & rear door weatherstripping, roof weatherstripping, front & rear turn signal assemblies, mirrors, windshield, door hinge pins, 4wd & Toyota emblems, kick vent gaskets, license plate frame.
