Toyota Land Cruiser HJ75 Troopy Trakka Bushman
Description
This is the vehicle, I bought it from him, empty, bad motor, and needing refreshed, but overall great looking, really unique truck It was equipped as listed, had original “Roberts Lockers” Pre-ARB taking rights, cool. No compressor etc. Wanted to keep it in somewhat original state but with some modifications for reliability, drivability and offroad ability.
