$12,000 obo. Offers happily accepted. Trying to not lose everything I put into the vehicle in March.
I've only...
I was glad to get it out of the yard where they had 49,000 wrecked, repo'd or totaled cars. 49k! I unfortunately will have to sell it, but want it to go a cruiser head... and want to get it drivable first so that someone know what they are getting. It's super clean. Body and interior are great...
Well, bought her back from insurance, and got her home. The 16" Tacoma steel wheels I found for cheap on CL got her on the trailer, but not enough room to clear the tie rods, so she barely rolls. Will need to track down another set or go new stock. We will see.
Got the new batteries and wiring...
Well, sh*t. The worst case happened, insurance company totaled the rig. So my uber-clean, 4 month old (to me) rig now goes to salvage title, and an immediate financial loss. Such is the way of the world, I'm trying to not cry into my cereal.
The value the insurer is putting on the truck...

Thanks all,
Beno, those wheels should work long term--but I was hoping for some ideas on direct bolt on I can pick up on craigslist, etc immediately. The truck is sitting on it's hubs in an impound tow yard... I'd like to get it out. :)
Well, that's not fun...returned from a week long work trip and...wait--I know I parked there! Gone. Local PD has my (new to me) BJ70 in their lot, found a few miles from where I typically park. Haven't seen the truck yet... but Police report says it was found with: 'no wheels, no stereo, no...
Hi all,
I did attempt a search, but no joy. I do have joy in being the happy owner of a new-to-me LHD 70! I've owned several 60's, a couple of 80's but this is my first 70--stoked!
It, unfortunately--is in storage a few hours a way until I get rid of my current daily. It will be my new DD...
Trade Interest?
I don't suppose he wants to trade for a 2004 29' Toy hauler.
I have a message up on this forum, and on the TDI VW forums. The only two vehicles I'd trade for!

Hi All,
Looking to trade a 2004 29' Forest River Toy Hauler for clean diesel TLC. The toy hauler is in great shape. Worth more than the $13,000 I'm asking for it, but we know the state of the economy right now. Details galore at:
