Time for interior kitchen and emergency bed platform design testing…

Always wanted one… but never thought I would be able to get one down here in South America. But thanks to another 80 obsessed Overlanding friend passing through, me and my buddy were able to buy his seats for replacement cost in EU and each get a captain’s seat 💺 just gotta switch the seatbelt over to the other side and I’ll be the happiest driver in the south 💪🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼 Scheel-Mann seat babayyyyyyy😎😮‍💨 #toyota #landcruiser #80series #HDJ80 #4x4 #overlanding #vanlife

Time for electrostatic powdercoating 💪🏼

Time to start chopping up the tailgate… one of the mods I’ve always dreamed of having on a rig… such a badass upgrade that adds tons of useful and accessible storage from an otherwise wasted empty space 💪🏼🙌🏼 Going to sound proof the entire interior and top so that it’s insulated as well as reduce any noise from things shifting and will install a molle panel border around the entire inside with cross-braced dividers that can be moved any which way to organize and strap or Velcro gear bags to… so stoked 😎 Final product should look something like the second photo… I’ll have the perfect place to store my recovery gear and hoses for the shower system and gas system #toyota #landcruiser #HDJ80 #80series #4x4 #overlanding #vanlife
