Import to Canada question

[bellero]

Hi folks,

I'm Stephen from Alberta Canada, I've owned Toyota trucks all my life and my first vehicle was a BJ 73 that I owned for 3 years in the early 90's. I currently drive a 2003 1st Gen Tacoma and I'm thinking of importing a 70 series LC in the near future.

Which importer would be able to get me a nice vehicle impoted to Canada from Europe or South America as I really want a LHD.

I stumbled on this facebook page and was wondering if it's a scam?

Are there not a fair number of 70 Series already in Canada that you can choose from without having to import?

The kicker is the LHD. Except for BJ70's from '85-87, all the 70 series rigs are RHD.

Kzj77 and he wants a pretty penny for a truck with a hand grenade for an engine.

i'd love to own a KZJ77, just don't pull the pin on the grenade and overheat it.
the ECM contolled injection pump would worry me more. I wouldn't mind having a 1kz or even a 2L-T if the truck has a 5 speed manual and mechanical injection pump. they work too hard with the autos IMO.
