"VHT"BRAND HIGH TEMPERATURE CHASSIS SP670 GLOSS BLACK PAINT was just used this past week by me to protect undercarriage. It will at least help to prevent further surface rust and bubblinguntil winning bidder decides torestore or paintthe Land Cruiser.Also, someone just askedif I did a recentvalve adjustment. I have not done one but in myprofessionalopinion the engine sounds perfect, runs perfect, doesnot smoke, idles perfectlyand as noted above, has near perfect compression numbers.The winning bidder should do a valve adjustment every 8k miles if possible.Any other questions, lemmie know.
