83 FJ40 in Africa

Me checking out an 1983 FJ40 in West Africa

guy wants to sell for $5k what do you think?

Owner removed the original carb and installed a single barrel carb from an old Corona..swears he is getting 20 mpg. unfortunately it barely has any acceleration (power) but it does cruise nicely through the jungle.

I'll ride with you to ck. it out! your buying , I'm flying! Or just threaten to return it at his expense if it doesn't get the twenty miles per gallon. It is an 83', ask if it has A/C!
 
I work overseas in the mining exploration field and I found this jewl while I was out and about. I don't think I will import it...but maybe If I can sneak it back in one of our containers full of sawn timber.
 
Sneak that fxxxer over here!
 
What cmpany, do they need security? I'm working in Afghanistan right now.
Nice find. I'd try to sneak it back for sure. It would make a great story.
Cheers
 
If you don't take/sneak it in please let me know as I would love to have second dibs if I can get through the red tape:grinpimp:
