You can use a rust converter, it is easier than scraping the rust. A rust converter after one day after application will turn rust into a ferous oxide and rust is gone.

Jun, your work is truly commendable! I own a Land Cruiser HZJ71V, which I imported from Japan in pristine condition. However, after residing in Scotland for 2 1/2 years, it began displaying signs of surface corrosion underneath, despite my limited use during summers and avoidance of winter driving. I recently watched your captivating Land Cruiser restoration series while commuting on the train. I eagerly anticipate the release of the second episode, especially after having my own Land Cruiser undergo a comprehensive undersealing treatment for rust protection. Keep up the fantastic work! 🚙👏

Dude I can not believe how solid that thing is! Wow great machine Jun. it looks like minimal rust and I know in Ohio, (North East U.S.) my vehicles rust horribly. I will say I'm a little bummed that Sifu removed the Valvoline container patching the hole in your transmission tunnel, that was cool. I would've welded it in place and kept it there lol

Strip it Down Bare find rust problems treat it before respray,if you gona replace a leaky radiator might as well install a new engine thermostat and water pump,new hoses,belting,etc! The 70Series is Legendary as with All Land Cruisers adding to Toyotas Reliability!
I recognise that roll of white tape!
Can’t wait to see the end product. But as the saying goes, it’s the journey and not the destination. Thus I am so enjoying the journey but still excited to see the end product. All the best June….. 🕺🏻

You can check to see if the radiator fan viscous clutch is working properly by idling the engine after its fully warmed up (e.g. after a drive), and getting someone to turn the engine off as you observe the fan. If the fan stops immediately after the engine is switched off, this means the clutch pack is working as designed. But if the fan simply keeps spinning after the engine is turned off, it's time to service the fan clutch or simply replace it.

Hello, happy to hear you are considering to get into car camping! Well, it's still premature for me to give any advice because I have not taken my Land Cruiser for camping yet! But from what I've seen and heard, an old wagon like this is a good choice. They were built to last :)
