hey guys
A friend of mine asked me to help him sell his 1984 hj60.
It is a nice truck. OME suspension, some other goodies. I don't know it well, but I know it has some body work needed (some rust, some dents)
Anyway- by virtue of being 25 years old, and diesel, and LHD... it is solid candidate for someone who wants to import a truck to the USA.
The only catch is that the truck is in Costa Rica right now, and he isn't keen on driving it up himself.
He'll sell cheap- $8,000. It is a great deal if you don't mind either driving through central america, which will take you about a week to get to Texas. Or shipping, which will cost... $1,000? I'm not sure.
I can give you gps coordinates for the entire route from here to Texas (or California). Including hotels along the way that aren't too ratty.
Again: I don't know the mechanicals well. I believe it is a 5spd. I know it is 24v. Originally from Germany. LHD. 32x11.50r15 tires with good life left on them. interior is pretty clean (cleaner than most USA fj60s from 1984). Blue exterior brown/beige interior.
Hit me back w/ questions and I'll do my best to answer them. I'm not expecting to make any real money on this, so don't be shy to offer me beer or dinner or something if you end up buying the truck!
I am present and willing to help out w/ paperwork and logistics when you come down. In the event that you prefer to ship up, I can help coordinate that too, but we'll have to negotiate a fair compensation as that is at least 5 days of fairly tedious work on my end and I just can't offer that for free in today's troubled economy.
cheers
Steve
ps: I'll get some pics
