Anyone interested in a 13BTJ60?

I posted this in the Diesel forum as well. I'm thinking of selling my 13BTJ60 to make room for a 1HD-T conversion in an 80. Just wanted to see what kind of interest there might be on this board.

Some specs:

1987 FJ60
13B-T direct injected turbo-diesel (purchased from G&S in 2005)
H55f 5 speed transmission
shimmed turbo waste-gate (6mm)
dual battery set-up with Painless Wiring isolator
stock suspension
26-28 mpg highway and 18-20 mpg city
eDead interior

The rig has ~275K and the motor/tranny about ~75K.

The rig is pretty clean: no rust and no dents but the typical rock chips up front. Interior is clean to very clean but not perfect. I've got 13K invested and would hate to sell it for less than 10K (but will go with best reasonable offer). What do you guys think?

I'm in Bend. And like I said, I'm flexible on my price but this rig is much cleaner than average, is a rare breed with the TD, and would cost much more if you tried to have someone else do the swap for you. A little fresh paint and OME and this rig would be top shelf.
 
Would you consider a trade?

145 K, mint conditioned interior, 1000 K stereo, custom diamond plated rear panels, header (not installed), brand new springs, etc.

i think i wish i had $10+k to buy this rig!
 
The only trade I will consider would be for an 80 series, but it would have to be pretty clean.

Just to clarify, this rig is definitely for sale. I did get an offer for $7500, which is unreasonable for this truck. Interested individuals should feel free to PM me.
 
Can it be registered in California?

How clean of an 80 are you looking for?
 
Dave: for the time being I'd prefer to sell it locally. As time goes by I might consider a trade for the right 80. Yours looks nice--what kind of shape is it in?


blupaddler: I'd prefer a really clean, stock 80.
 
Mine isn't stock.

Clean depends on who you're asking.
The hood is oxydizing, scratches on body from use.

I'll be showing this rig for sale locally this starting this weekend, so if any mudders are interested (other than those who have already pm'd me) let me know.
