Not mine.

The title says "BJ71", which I thought meant 3B, but the description says "13B-T", which makes this a decent deal at $26,400 for LHD model:

With the airbrakes installed you can bet that this poor cruiser made a living pulling 10-20 k trailers daily to earn it's keep . Either carnival or public markets where the 2 most common uses of these in the 80's up to the 90's before they mostly outlawed it in Europe

I'm curious, because most of the 70 series I've seen for sale in Switzerland have had air brakes installed. Even a 2010 HZJ76... Any reason for this?
