Figured I'd offer this baby up to YT people first. Will need a month or so to get it ready and have the title in hand. Maybe 3 weeks. MA state RMV is an evil mistress.....
1980 BJ40
UPDATE: Just checked the paint code and it it original paint code Mustard 532! The tub edge had some tan so i thought it was tan but that must be primer or something
Rebuilt B diesel engine with 3,000kms (1864 miles) Has a few hundred thousand miles to go yet!
4 speed H41 (currently has a 5 speed which could be negotiated for extra $$)
1984 LX model axles ie. cable rear parking brake, full floater rear, discs up front
Very Clean interior
Mustard paint in decent condition. Could use a sand and repaint but I'm picky. Plenty of nicks and scratches but nothing major. I waxed the hood and it looks amazing from about 15 feet.
Has some rust in the curves of the rear corners but nothing too bad but there is some work to do.
Frame is mint
No rot underneath.
Front right fender has some rot but I have a perfect spare for a few $$ extra.
Things I plan on doing before selling:
Tires and rims (will include the 4 split rims as well) Tires are junk so will find roadworthy tires. I have a set someplace in VT so I'm trying to grab those.
Replace springs
attach and paint bumper
clean up body and interior
new tail-lights
Basically this is good to go as-is aside from the tires. With a tiny bit of bodywork and some paint it would be insanely nice. Going to avoid the rattler on this one.
Best offer. Happy to take $$$ off if you feel like doing the above fixes yourself as I have limited time these days.
Pics are posted below. Original pics were blurry and dull
