More about the restoration on my IG: @patinacruisers

Arrived 4 Wheel Auto in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada finally in 2021 for a full mechanical restoration and vehicle inspection to officially finally…. be imported into Canada and on the road.

Few holes patches in the tub in the rear. This 40 was originally a service vehicle at Edwards Air Force Base. So they had cut 4 holes in the rear floor to mount a tool box to the frame back in the day. Holes files, light box liner applied and then colour/clear.

Frame and drivetrain prep for a nice coat of POR15

$62,500usd Edmonton, AB, Canada

do you have a build thread for this rig? I'm building the exact same powertrain into a 70.

There should be one yes but it basically has all the same information as this for sale thread.

Too bad with that engine swap it can't be imported to the US. 69 did not have any diesel land cruisers so hard to convince customs it the original engine.

I would be shocked if customs paid attention at all to the difference in engine on a 55 yr old truck

Customs would never know it was an engine swap, they don’t start it or ask or anything. Been through many times and it looks factory. Was also told if they are a certain age that would not matter anyways.

The broker I use has all paperwork complete before you arrive at the crossing, you literally drive up and they scan the paperwork and wave you through. Would take you longer crossing with an RV.

Confirmed.
