Went a little crazy this month and bought two BJ73s and a BJ74 from Oz. Both 73s are 1985, both H55F, one with aftermarket turbo (white one). Woot! Top off for one and who knows on the other!

BJ74 is a 1986, factory 13B-T of course and in need of fender flares! Going to be fun to build these up and wheel them!

More details to follow once they arrive.

Here's the white turbo-equipped BJ73.

Yeah! Can't wait! The white truck is the question mark, described as a beater, but I did get a helluva deal for it, so we'll see.

Note the radiator hose lower left unattached...hmmm?? A little nervous about that!

WOW:clap Great looking rigs....

Sorry I did not get back to you Dave, we are doing a diesel install and its keeping me and the guys quite busy.

The little BJ73 I thought was a 1985, turned out to be a 1988.


Good luck with your new rigs.....

Thanks Rob! Cheers! And Wayne, wot is that thing, then?
 
its a water drain / baffle thingie for the stock intake air tube . Mine was removed when I put my snorkel one some time ago
 
Plenty of room for a intercooler on the white 73, maybe with hood scoop? Yea it's the air intake baffle thingy.
 
Ah cool! Thanks!

Intercooler: not a bad idea:idea:
 
and there is your answer...
you can relax now, no worries there M8.

chat later. shortening a 74 series hardtop to fit onto my soft top SWB 70.
cheers
 
Cool looking rigs, Dave. I'm looking forward to seeing how the builds progress on these rigs, and participating too!
 
Lot's of fun to be had there and plenty more of them where they came from. I look forward to seeing what you do with them.
