You are confused MANFREDI, I offered you a un restored fj45, I had 2 lhd 1977 canadian spec fj45s. I recently parted with my other 77.

I refurbished this entire cruiser and have beginning to end pictures if need be. I am TOTALLY CONFUSED as to why you say ("hmmm rusty") YOU HAVE NEVER PHYSICALLY SEEN THIS LHD fj45 cruiser as you live across the border!. So please respect my listing and I would be happy to send you any picture desired. 3/4 of the entire body is aluminum and will NEVER RUST. I then sand blasted the entire frame and hand polished the engine bay to the original free born red in order to show the condition it was originally. I have also saved the original box/ headache rack, cab, doors. I did not offer you this truck for $9000 in this condition! NOT POSSIBLE. I have over 10 000 into aluminum aqualu parts alone.

I will keep posting pictures for any1 who understands what a aluminum fj45 is. I have restored over 20 of them and my problem with each and every1 is rust!. I decided to go another route with this toy and it came out gorgeous.

I did remember calling you Manfredi and offeriing you a diesel bj45 and got no reply.

enjoy and much Aloha
 
sweet cruiser bro!

Maybe I can add a suggestion w/o being offensive?

Hit that baby with an epoxy primer and hose it freeborn red in a base/clear paint job. The top and bezel white and original cruiser wheels/hubcaps. THEN in my opinion it will attract the buyers you need at the asking price, if nothing else snag some nice bids.
The three-tone mis-match colors, and all black front end distract a bit.

It is too cool of a cruiser to be overlooked. Best wishes with the sale - you have a nice cruiser here bro!

I agree with you Dallas. I was building it for a close friend and he is now going through a bad( horrible) divorce, that is the only reason I stopped with the paint and the only reason I painted it black

He just cant afford to go more in the hole if I paint it back red. I have original mint 16" landcruiser fj45 rims + tires! + original tool kit, jack, manual, doors/perfect glass, box. Some1 will really score on this rig. Any cruiser head can add up what is put into this rare lhd cruiser thus far.

Thanks for the Bump

Aloha

Importing it to the USA

I just bought a truck from Jordan/Jon and imported it to the US. beside being an easy operation thanks to the support of Jordan and the people he put me in touch to expedite the process (it took 12 days from the moment the truck left him in Vancouver to me in NYC) it was a pleasure to see that the truck i had purchased from Jordan was way above my expectations. Consider the fact that i trusted the guy over the phone simply on good feeling so i was prepared to have room for some mishaps. All went smooth and i am driving a gorgeous truck, impeccably kept.
