Excellent condition except for the tub, which needs sill repair at a minimum. Frame perfect, OME springs, grease-able shackles. Brakes are 1 year old. 4-wheel disc, rear full floater, all Toyota parts. Front axle completely rebuilt with housing replaced, new bearings and seals, and powder coated last year.

2H runs perfectly but has a minor persistent oil leak from the back somewhere. Starts every time. Truck originally from Australia, rebuilt in BC Canada in 2004~2006, where it was converted to LHD using a donor truck firewall and cowl. Brought out to the East Coast in 2007. Last three winters it has been parked. Currently licensed, insured, and just passed MA state inspection with flying colors. Clean MA title.

4 speed H41 low geared transmission with PTO output. Transfer case rebuilt 2 years ago. Parking brake mounted on transfer.

PTO winch came off a Japanese market HJ81, and has probably been used just once or twice in its life.

OEM fog lamps. Euro spec. mirrors. Doors are new in the last year as is the hood. Bib and fenders new in 2006. Battery is a year old. Drives straight down the road.

Tires are Toyo M55, with 80~90% tread. Spare tire is also M-55.

More than $50,000 in receipts. Needs money spent on the tub - have been considering getting a Tesevan tub but wife has put her foot down in terms of spending any more money on the truck. After a lot of thought, it's now for sale. Rusty tub means I have to take a loss here.

June price drop: $10,000.00 will now buy this truck.

Just out of curiosity, isn't that MAJOR rust below the driver door and on the cab? Just curious why you say in great shape except for tub. Am I missing something (or other places where there is rust?) Thanks.
 
No, you are not missing something. The tub is rusty, and I think would be best replaced. I've been very clear about that and am not trying to fool anyone. I've sent photos to interested buyers clearly showing the rusty areas.

The doors and hood were new oem replacements in the past 2 years, so zero rust. The right fender and bib were new oem replacements in 2005 or 2006. The upper cab section and roof are original and had received rust repair during the rebuild, however they have been fine since, probably due to how far up and away from the road they are. The roof had just one small rust hole about an inch in diameter, and new metal was welded in. The bezel is original and didn't have rust so it was simply cleaned up and repainted. The frame is in excellent shape.
 
I have to speak up for hj47, look at the build, a cab replacement, is cheap, considering the time and money put into this build! Hj, dont give in, this is a nice rig! Cheers!

Sorry, my ignorance as a newbie. I thought "tub" referred to the truck bed. The good thing is buyers have more info now than before. :)
 
Excellent truck for the money! If I were still in the market for one I'd already have a plane ticket in my hand.
 
What a freaking bargain! If I wasnt working on a bj42 purchase I would be all over this! Helluva deal indeed!
 
Dad arrived little while ago said I need a 40 car garage! Not there yet.....

Storing would be good idea! Know anyone who could provide storage cheap:hillbilly:
