- The beautiful beige dune is suitable for classic toyota to a t-shirt.
It is possible to sell an old car with a new layer of paint, a new set of wheels and a complete interior cleaning, but for the crew of Legacy Overland, it is not enough. When responsible for restoring and modifying this 1977 Toyota Land Cruiser, the Connecticut company completely stripped the Australian model and rebuilt it from zero.
After having withdrawn almost all the original parts, the inheritance had only the frame. He then repaired him, the shortbread, coated it in epoxy and painted it, before starting the long process of adapting a 4.5 -liter toyota toyota of a Cruiser Land80 , coupled with a five -speed manual transmission and transfer box.

Mechanical improvements do not stop there. New training trees, an improved radiator and cooling system and modern brake rotors have been installed on the four corners. The driving height was also taken 2.5 inches thanks to the springs and shocks of the EMU / ARB Old Man leaf, which makes the FJ45 even more capable along a robust and difficult terrain.
Visually, the emblematic Toyota is finished at Dune Beige, which is perfectly suited to an all-terrain like this. It also turns 16 -inch steel wheels with chromed hubs and a soft matching beige dune top.
Inside, the original steering wheel has been restored and new Dakota Digital gauges were installed, alongside a personalized sound system, air conditioning and newly cut leather seats. Although this Land Cruiser is almost 50 years old, it has never been better than that and is necessarily to make the owner very, very happy.
The Overland heritage did not say how much the cost of transformation, but it could not have been cheap. However, if you can afford to have a beautiful FJ45, you can probably justify the payment of an exorbitant sum to revise it.
