Agreed that California is terrible for imports. Imagine telling a prospective client no you can not have a 1982 FJ43. Maddeningly California is represented on TV and online as the great location for classic cars when the reality is the opposite. This may be why CA has the highest prices and...

Work on that truck..... Purchased summer 2015. Work done early 2016 and delivered shortly after and sold. Please note the long timeline. Work received... extensive paint touch up including exterior rear of the truck. new soft top. new interior. all new glass mostly. 5 new tires and rims. all...

Thanks Johnny C. Need to budget $5000 export/import/title costs and much more for transfer costs within Colombia. There are almost no BJ40s in Colombia. I do not ship for others due to the fact buyers looking for a deal do not see all the real costs and also because I have to guarantee clear...

Thanks Joek. I will let the 20 trucks I have restored, imported and sold speak for themselves. I try to apply a uniform standard to the overhauls. Let's see how this truck listed turns out. I think it will make a very nice truck for someone.

Snorkel facing forward = 2 horsepower boost?

yes I hate the snorkel that way! for aesthetic reasons. haha I knew you guys would be on that detail! and yes I do think it is a local thing. we send the truck for compression test. I dont have photos but the truck has hydraulic PTO from Toyota apparently. please post if anyone has had one. We...

paint is satin/matte finish. this is not an auction house truck but suits the theme. We have a budget to do paint touch up under the truck and want to paint that firewall black. Floors show clean above and below but we are putting it on a lift to check further. These 70 series actually rust...

under the BJ73. again this truck needs a full service/overhaul.

I can look for a pickup. send message. Clean BJ73s are hard to find getting beat up and picked over.

Again remember black BJ73 to include likely black high quality vinyl. New custom vinyl floor coverings. new panels. rear side panels. rear door panels. seat bases taken down to metal and repainted. new foam and high quality vinyl or maybe leather. I need to find a plastic center console. I...

86 FJ73 we sold. Had actually an original Toyota soft top but we can replicate one similar quality and included in price for the black truck.

We should start a thread Nebula Green vs Breathe Green. It is maddening for me and worse for clients. The more I look at them these are all about the same color. Heath Gray looks GREEN in some light.

This is a goofy color. That blue stout is the only one on the internet. I found a tester can I bought of PPG niagara green and sprayed it on a piece of roofing (OK granted this is some serious backyard testing)... The color in the shade shows teal blue almost. very close to that STOUT. In...
