This 2003 100 series LandCruiser Sahara was advertised on Marketplace with poor photos and a very brief description, it was either going to be a scam or potentially a very bad decision 😂 Westy and I decide to hook up the trailer to investigate and when we arrived we soon realised it was pretty well destined for the wreckers, With 450,000kms on the odometer,, an overheated 2UZFE engine, Faulty brakes and interior that was hiding a pandemic it needed a complete makeover to get it back on the road.
This cruiser was bought with the intention to restore it back to its former glory and with th help from Supercheap Auto we were able to give it a new lease on life, A full (condensed) build video was recently released but it left so much awesome content on the table that I just couldn't let goto waste so enjoy the "Extended cut"
