I bought this RHD vehicle back in 2006 when it had just 21,000 km (12,600 miles) on it.
This is a link to the original pics, I am using Luxury's site to help advertise it:
Luxury Imports - Calgary, Alberta
I had planned on turning it into a wheeling rig due to the dent beside the fuel filler access door but when it arrived in Canada the dent was MUCH smaller than it looked in the picture and I realized I had a true survivor on my hands. I just couldn't bring myself to modify it.
8 years later and it now has 31,000 km (18,600 mile). It is still in the same condition that it was when it arrived. I installed a brand new factory soft top shortly after I received it off the train. The original ripped at the seams as I removed it to detail the paint.
Here is the thread on Mud about removing and installing the factory top:

Since then the truck has been driven roughly 800 km per year. It has never been driven in the winter. It has never been in an accident. It has not been repainted. It is all original down to the factory split rims (except the radio).
The only fault the truck has is the exhaust is rusted and I have a brand new full factory system being shipped in from Japan.
This is a collectors dream or a builder’s blank canvas to work from.
The last few tanks of fuel has returned 10l/100km (30 mpg imp)
The last tank of fuel 362 km to 32L of fuel, 90 k/h (32 mpg imp or 26.5 mpg US at 55 mph)
I have a RHD PS kit sitting here as well as a RHD AC kit which can be negotiated. turbo/lift/etc etc can be installed at an extra cost.
This is one of five factory soft top SWB 70s in North America and is the lowest mileage and the only full stock condition.
I have no real use for the vehicle and it really should go to a new home in the care of someone that will appreciate the rarity that this vehicle is.
$29,000 CND
