Hi, just wondering if you ever sold your BJ42. ThanksThanks 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!

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
Is this beauty for sale?
That fresh H55 is the love I was referring toHa, just ran across this! It was a good rig and in good hands! How is that H55 doing?
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.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.
Mark this SOLDI 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.
