I purchased a 1985 model from Vancouver, BC in 2012 and it's been in Seattle ever since.
I have two 1985 Canadian 70's both same color, one with 350km other with 250km.
Anyone have a CDN BJ70 brochure on pdf?
Also curious how window rust issues are typically repaired on these. Thanks!

I could if needed. the ad does say it is pretty rusty.
And if anybody wants me to check it out for them, I can't this week. My truck is torn down, which by the way is also a SWB 70 that is for sale!

I think the owner's name is Frank. He was selling an FJ55 a couple years back from the same location and backdrop. Seems like a good fellow who's not out to gouge anyone, FWIW.

I'm not much of an aftermarket wheel fan, but I really like those Bradley V's!
I have a LHD BJ75 ex-mine truck. Wasn't part of the "sold in Canada" crew because it was purchased by a mine, but close enough.
This 1985 BJ70 was recently purchased in Medicine Hat. It'll stay in Lethbridge until the weather warms up a bit, and then home to Vancouver area for new windshield, a rebuilt H55F instead of the H42 that someone thought to install (???), a turbo, a little sprucing up...
Two spots of rust, a little under the passenger foot well and another one in front of the battery. Frame, rockers, wheel wells are all mint, and it looks like the engine was recently rebuilt, to what degree is unknown.
I'm quite excited.

Picked this 85 up a couple of weeks ago.
ARB ff/rr, 3B 5speed.
Starts up nicely 220000kms.
Garaged since 2011 and not driven, the old timer just tinkered.
Have the original roof racks.

still around and a work in progress (been on hold the last few years...)
85 BJ70, 307k. Not running great.
frame is still good, but I'll soon be working on the engine and body

Picked up this project yesterday. Rebuilding the 3b with a turbo . Needs a lot of work but clean besides the rockers and quarters, interior is nice. Have a mint lj70 tub to finish the resto. Like the dark brown but the blue grey is nice too.
