Why am I selling Lumpy? I've got too many trucks and despite the over $10K I’ve got into it,it's got to go:
The Truck
• 1985 Canadian titled BJ70 with 430,000 kms (267,000 miles). Engine was rebuilt at 390,000 kms, and turbo-ed at 410,000 kms. Great compression all across.
The Good
• Rebuilt 3B with Lebaron Turbo on a 13B-T manifold. 40,000 kms on the rebuild. Makes great power.
• 5 Speed H55F Transmission
• Safari Snorkel
• 2" Belton Suspension kit
• 1.5” body lift
• JDM front and rear 4.11’s with under 40,000 kms on them
• All of the removable body panels have been replaced with new ones. There is some recent evidence that it has been through a couple of Calgary winters since. There is some rust starting on the fender edges and such, but that is surface rust so far.
• Frame is solid and rust free
• New and balanced driveshafts
• New Optima Bluetops – Dual Purpose starting and deep cycle battery.
• Boost, Oil Pressure, and Pyrometer all installed
• American Racing Alloy rims (16x6) with Yokohama Geolander MT’s, all in VERY good shape.
• 12 Volt electrics
• Alpine MP3/CD player, with 4 good speakers
The Bad
• The non-removable body parts are…well, rusty.
• Rear quarters: some recent home-brew body work on both sides (before I owned a welder) has carved out the rust. The rattle-can paint job is showing though.
• Roof: The roof has consistently been the worst part of this truck. It is sealed from the elements but it is rusty and looks crappy.
• Windshield: It looks like it has been through a train wreck. I have a brand new one which isn’t installed. INCLUDED
• Pillars: they are rusty, but not rotted. They are still very solid
The rear seat has been removed, but is included.
This truck is the ideal weekend wheeler. Mechanically it is perfect. If you want a reliable daily driver which wheels happily, this is the one.
The drivetrain is worth $5000. The axles are worth $1000 easy.
Asking $6000 Cdn.
