I'm doing some research for my dad who has a lead on this truck that sold on BaT in January. The guy who purchased the truck is a friend of my dad's and an auto-collector with some $$$ to spare. He visited the truck before purchasing, secured the winning bid on the truck, then upon further discussions with the seller (Cahaba Cruisers out of Alabama) decided he wanted to buy a Troopy that they have. I don't see the Troopy on their website. So now he has this FZJ73 out of Columbia and a Troopy from them. He's looking to offload the 73 for what he paid for it and it just happens to be around the corner from my dad. I know the 40 and 60 series well but really know nothing about the 70 series other than drooling over Nitro Gears 75 at Cruise Moab last year.
So a few questions for the Mud community:
So a few questions for the Mud community:
- Anyone know anything about Cahaba Cruisers?
- Trucks from Columbia...what is the general thought on these, special things to watch out for?
- The top seems a bit off to me, is this original? Fivres?? FRP Top?? it looks like it might have been red at one point.
- What are the BFC 340 markings on all the glass?
- FZJ Engine. Is this the same engine as an FZJ80? It appears from a question on the BaT thread that it is carburated? This may be right but I'm familiar with the US FZJs are fuel injected.
- Based on past sales and some research the price $20k feels about right but I don't know much about these. What are your thoughts?
