1981 BJ42 Toyota Land Cruiser - REDUCED

buy it before i get my self in trouble !

Rod McD · 07-03-08, 11:04 AM

If the frame is solid.What a great starting point.Or just enjoy.

toynut · 07-03-08, 11:24 AM

it was for sale months ago and i emailed a number of times and he never got back to me so i bought my 62 , it was for $5000 back then , he finaly emailed me back about a week after i bought the 62 ,doh !

but hey i wonder how much lower the guy would go , it would have to have a rock solid frame or it wouldnt be worth squat !

Rod McD · 07-03-08, 05:30 PM

Thats just a tad more then I paid for Elsie.Solid frame and that was about the only thing solid.I guess it all depends on where you want to end up?

Enigma · 07-03-08, 06:37 PM

My 40 has a rock solid frame. And a rock solid motor. And a rock solid drive line, with custom frame lubrication system.

Body...not so rock solid.

Yotawheeler... looks like your trying to start a LC ranch.
What's up with some LC owners needing more than three in their yard, sheez!

i think you will find this guy rather hard to get ahold of , there is a nice blue 40 for sale in maple ridge but its a gasser .

steverb · 07-04-08, 07:02 AM

going to look at the blue one this morning.

yotawheeler · 07-04-08, 07:31 AM

well...technically i only own 1 1/2 cruisers myself...the others are my dads, i have a 40 and me and my dad went into a 45 project together. i would love to drive the 40 every day but its a FJ so $$$$ in the tank for the 100 k every day to and from school.

toynut: do you know this guy or something? my dad had sent him a few e-mails when it was 5k but then hadnt heard much back so we assumed it had sold. you know the best way to get ahold of him?

Rod McD · 07-04-08, 08:28 AM

Wife say's get rid of it?He say's,O.K. I'll try honey. I don't understand,no one is calling,AH DANG IT ALL,I guess I'll just have to hang on to it for now.

My wife said no FJ! · 07-04-08, 08:54 AM

Just sent him an e-mail...should he ever answer, anyone able to take a look at it? Would be fun to be able to drive one while the other is being restored

Mud_Guppie · 07-04-08, 01:17 PM

I haven't seen his Cruiser for years
last time I saw it, it was nice

pbgbottle · 07-05-08, 11:24 PM

it is on Mount Seymour Parkway north side just east of superstore.i have never seen it move in the last 3 years or so.

yotawheeler · 07-06-08, 04:27 AM

well toynut i think you're safe as far as getting into trouble is concerned, cause i just opened up a whole new can of worms for myself...went and looked at it and ill be adding to the cruiser "herd". gunna be picking it up on tuesday or wednesday

pbg: apperently he just drove it in the summer for the past few years (thats what he told me)....that could be why it looks like it hasnt moved for a few years

toynut · 07-06-08, 06:19 AM

good , glad to see some one pick it up . i ve got my eyes on an m101 at the moment

pbgbottle · 07-06-08, 09:53 AM

Oh! I see

that soft top looks like one Fab-tech used to sell . could you see out of the windows fairly well . did it fit tight ?

yotawheeler · 07-06-08, 12:16 PM

the windows on it were kinda crappy....the top needs to be replaced, zippers dont work very well and the you cant really see out of the windows very well. i have a buddy here on the island who can make me a new top in pretty short order if i were to ask. i also have a spare hard top in my yard so im not too worried about that....the fit seemed to be alright though.
