For Sale 1982 BJ42

Location

United States

I did not think I would ever sell my Land Cruiser, but plans change, so I am unfortunately putting it up for sale. I am moving to Squamish July. 1st and will not have any secure parking for it; I'll only have street parking. I'll then be heading on a road trip to Alaska during that last two weeks of July. I may be interested in a partial trade for either a 1996-1999 4Runner or 80 series Land Cruiser (price around $5k); something more suiting for the long trip. And if all goes well, I'll be spending at least 2 months backpacking in SE Asia starting in Sept/Oct.

I'm not sure exactly what it is worth, so I am just going to throw a price out of $25k and see what happens. I bought it off another MUD member last year and since owning it, I've had a ton of work done to it. I have receipts for all the work done to it listed above. It has been an absolute blast to drive/own but travel plans are taking priority now.

If you have any questions feel free to PM me. The Land Cruiser is located in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Thanks for all the comments guys. It might be heading to a good home in the USA. I am going to mark it as "Sale Pending" for now.

Cheers!

Hi, just wondering if you ever sold your BJ42. Thanks

 

[Dirty Koala]

Confirmed

Congrats young man, guess I have to keep searching for that BJ but keep me in mind. Happy trekking !

Second in line.....

Lol this has been sold a 2nd time since the original ad!!! Haha

 

[Dirty Koala]

My 2 year old called 1st dibs as soon as I brought this BJ home.

 

[Sergio Viquez]

Very nice truck!

 

[Diesel Cruiserman]

I have thought about storing it for sure. Not knowing how long I'll be gone has me worried though. It'll be one less thing to worry about while I am gone.

I've had someone asking about frame and engine serial numbers so I thought I would post them here too. I am not sure what information you guys can get with the engine serial number; but, I'll post it just in case...

VIN: JT3BJ42C1C0002370
Frame Serial #: BJ42 - 002370
Engine Serial #: 11411 - 58010

Means nothing

Great truck should go FASTTTTTTT

Is this beauty for sale?

No it is not, It is presently sitting in my heated garage getting some love.

 

[Varty Yo]

Guess he missed the replay from last week....

lol

Ha, just ran across this! It was a good rig and in good hands! How is that H55 doing?

That fresh H55 is the love I was referring to

I've been toying with the idea of how to keep it but once I move I won't have parking for it...only street parking. Currently I have secure underground parking so it is great. Plus, once I start traveling this fall it'll be sitting for who knows how long.

Hey, I'd like to chat on the regulator issues you had with the BJ42... I have a RHD BJ44, and need to replace the regulator.. Send me a PM if you can, I don't know how.

 

[whitey45]

Check your dates, was sold 4 years ago!

 

[greenbeast]

What a great driving cruiser that was. We sold her to buy back our old farm. Love to see it again.

 

[Dirty Koala]

She is safe and sound in Utah. The BJ42 regulator is NLA, so I figured out you can use a 70 series 24V regulator. I just depinned and reused the original round green plug on the new regulator.
