Congratz on the LC. I remember seeing this vehicle at a used car showroom on Avinashi Road, coimbatore several months back. Looked good.

hi jay , yes you are right you must have seen this car , it was brought from coimbtore from a team bhp member Murari, this car was also put up for sale on BHP website

Congrats Rahul, LC's are the best breed for long distance 4x4 cruising. Hope you enjoy every mile you drive in it.

Here you go rahul, some idea about things to come.Its just a visualization and not accurate to dimension right now,which would be done in another software,this is the first draft and soon more stuff/enhancement will be done to have an idea of parts which are going to be fabricated.

i think this is the same one Trammway told me about few months ago.
i very much liked it but i declined to go for it because of it LWB.

Congratulations.

Thats a lovely machine that you have there Rahul. I will be in Mumbai and if time permits I would definitely come over this time and have a look at it.

Also please update the thread with the engine upgrade/ change you are planing to do and also the work that was done on the vehicle in Delhi. I am sure that it would be for the benefit for the entire community

Hey Rahul, you LC looks fantastic and all the mods that you have done are really purposeful. Congrats bro!
How was the drive to and from Mum - Blr? Also whenever you have the time please upload pics with the awning fully opened and stretched out. I would like to have a look. Also does Zac have stuff for the 80 series too?
And the most common question how much did the 1st step of the modifications cost?

rahultomahawk · 12th June 2011, 17:31

Harjeev will put up pics shortly. Ride was nice. Landcruiser performed really well. Zac has many things for 80 series. Cost about 3l till date.

Thanks for the update Rahul. By 3L you must mean just the Ironman stuff, right? Because all the modifications and reatoration jobs that you've done on your Cruiser till date I'm sure that the rest of the amount spent must have reached much higher. Still I really admire your passion and dedication towards your Cruiser.
