There are some small things that I feel a need to address and would consider offers as is. Once addressed, it would be 16K firm.

When I bought it, it was the nicest one I found after looking at at least a dozen.

Lots of views but not much feedback.

Thanks for the feedback, ForealBoreal!

She's only just STARTED to get done up in my mind! Needs 3" exhaut, gauges, remote start /keyless alarm, bigger tires, and oh-so-many other goodies.

Now I'm understanding what so many sellers are going through when they have to "let go" of something they love. Well, I don't have to...But I probably should.:hhmm:

I need to do some detailing before pics, folks, so stay tuned:wrench:
 
Thanks folks. I tried to update that info yesterday but the site was down. Should be good now.
 
gorgeous rig, but dont these HDJ81 sell in Japan for 4-8 grand via auction?

Yes. Amoung other things, you missed the fact that it is somewhat of an exotic vehicle and there is no substitute for a turbo diesel:
