1977 Toyota Land Cruiser HJ45 - Like FJ45 FJ40 BJ40 Etc.

1977 Toyota Land Cruiser HJ45 Pick up truck - Rare Diesel Land Cruiser in excellent fully frame off restored condition - no expense spared - open checkbook restoration of this iconic classic vehicle. Engine runs very well. - sounds like a (very loud) sewing machine.
People approach me to talk about it within seconds of me stopping the truck; every time I go out, anywhere I go.
Every nut and bolt has been off and replaced. Professional paint job. All systems gone through by a professional mechanic specializing in 4WD vehicles in Florida (references available upon request, but the only guy I would trust my 4WD Jeeps and Land Cruisers with) -
$$$Thousands were spent fixing any and all issues with this vehicle; of which there were really very few. Mostly just spent $ on New OEM Parts everywhere on this vehicle.
New BFG AT's with 40 ! miles on them. 33 x 10.50 x 15 tires and 5 Chrome wheels from an FJ60 in Excellent overall condition. New OEM Fog lights and fog light switch, new engine decompression switch, new throttle cable, new washer switch, new cigarette lighter, all new, OEM and functioning. New OEM Fuel sender and Gas Gauge, disc brakes in front, hydraulic steering, antique Hella rear fog light installed with very cool, red lit hella switch.
Interior shows as new - Brand New OEM Door Panels, Handles, window regulators. Custom full floor mat. OEM knobs gear shift and transfer case. Floors are amazing!
Brand new Interstate Battery, new air filter, new OEM fuel filter service, 2 new fuel lines, OEM H Oil filter and oil change with Rotella on April 12, 2017.
New Windshield, New Driveshaft.
Frame off restoration - every nut and bolt was removed and replaced. I am a perfectionist. Former US Marine. I own a limo company in Vail - EagleVailExpress.com. I am very detail oriented. This is a really nice truck.
ALL work listed was completed between Dec 15 2016 and April 12, 2017 - (does not include the frame-off paint job completed previously)
All fluids, tires etc have less than 45 miles on them as of today, 4-14-17
Things that are not perfect:1. The wheels are awesome - but at about 1-2 feet away you can see a small spot in the crease of each of the wheels were they had corroded slightly in the past from sitting. Very hard to see in these pics but there nonetheless. I purchased the best set I could find. Happy to text you pics...2. Clutch chatters very slightly in first gear only. We adjusted the clutch and it is pretty good but if I was going to keep the truck as a daily driver, I would have this addressed to make it a bit smoother. No chatter at all in 2, 3, 4 and R.3. For some reason they drilled 2 extra holes in the hood on each side. I have no idea when this happened in the trucks life, or why, and its a little sad from a perfectionist point of view, but you probably would not have noticed had I never mentioned it; in the interest of full disclosure. No one ever notices, its always more like "OMG WOW! That is the coolest car/truck I've ever seen!" and other similar commentary. Everyone wants to know the story on the truck.
