1987 Toyota Landcruiser review from North America
"Very reliable in all weather!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My starter and left caliper seized after being stored for a year. $50 and $35 bucks used no real problem. Brake pads replaces $23 bucks.
Seats were worn and the A/C compressor seized when I got the Cruiser I just replaced the seats with Leather Electric "Jeep Chreokee" seats $60 bucks. The A/C will be replaces and that will be $100 bucks.
General comments?
The Cruiser is the ultimate Wagon-SUV.
This machine will drive through the creek and in 4 feet of colorado snow.
So much room inside it's like a playground for the passengers and driver.
