wayne is this rusty's truck?

 

[crushers]

yep, he has no use for it since his cancer hit. he has more important tasks to complete.

 

[crushers]

some pics:
there is NO title for this vehicle. it is a grey market truck with no Form 1 document.
registering it will be "creative".
export to the States will require some dismatling and sold as "parts"

Myself nor Rusty assume ANY responsibility as to what happens once the vehicle leaves the property. Buyer is fully responsible.

the floor is pretty solid
the roof is pretty solid
the windshield frame is pretty solid
the hood could be reworked
the grill is fine

 

[crushers]

not sure what the parts are on the seat.
rear window is a mine conversion piece ... interesting to say the least.

 

[crushers]

the 3B II is a nice engine, a bit more powerful than the generic 3B.
NONE of the regular 3B parts fit this motor.
rotory pump, quieter than the inline
as well as a bit more snap lol: a 3B with snap)
runs well, excellent compression, needs exhaust badly.

 

[crushers]

little or no rust on the doors
hood is probably salvagable

 

[crushers]

the clutch slave leaks
the units are there to rebuild if desired

 

[crushers]

just more pics
everyone seems to love pics

 

[crushers]

4 rear caliper brakes
funky center unit reinforcment
broken rear leaf pack

NEEDS WORK

you can get a brand new 79 series box from this guy:

[ForealBoreal]

Cool truck.
If the dash was more intact that would be what I am after

 

[crushers]

the dash pod and trim pieces are sitting on the seat

 

[romey]

ahh, the memories of this truck and seein you and rusty work on it before that eventful run we had! lol!
hope Rusty's doin better these days (chime in if you can buddy!)
hope the sale goes through!

 

[crushers]

all 75 series trays fit 75 series

all 79 series trays fit 79 series, they are not bolt on interchangable between the two models.

if i end up buying it off Rusty (2 week advertising period) then i will install a 79 series bed by moving the rear axle back or forward as needed and relocating the supports.

so

1985 BJ75 to 1998 HZJ75, the beds are interchangable.

1999 to 2012 HZJ79 beds are interchangable



mods will be required to interchange with different years.

 

[crushers]

bump..

 

[crushers]

the original purchaser is having some issues importing it to the States.
still for sale till the 11th when i will buy it off Rusty.

Hi Wayne, I'm a total newbie to the whole cruiser scene and IH8MUD. I just saw this truck for sale one road over from me and it kind of fit the bill as to what I always wanted, a little 4x4 pickup that was diesel. So, I bought it. Anyhow, I didn't realize what a pandora's box I've opened. Didn't realize how cool the BJ75's are. The guy had it on the road a few years back, but from reading posts on here, there was some probable creativity in getting it registered, since I'm pretty sure it was a mine truck (though the guy I bought it from didn't seem to know). I think the first owner, a vietnamese guy did the fudging.
Anyhow, I'm happy to see you only live an hour and a half from me as I live in Milton. I'll likely want to get your opinion on whether this truck is worth fixing up and see if you have any spare body parts to sell... like a whole cab. It has a ton of rust (the weight of the doors flexes the fender and windscreen) but I'm ambitious and figure I should learn how to weld
So far I've been just driving it in the woods and planning on using it on the farm, but hope to put it back on the road one day. It runs like a top and the second owner put a 5 speed transmission in it. Driving it actually quickens my pulse.
Take care, Victor
