I bet Dan has already called. I wonder if it is the one with the 350 swap that was up for sale there a year or two ago?
That one (which was a 71) ended up on the island and has shuffled through a few owners since.
Here's a BJ42 for sale Land Cruiser
That looks very steep for that condition, does it come with a 12HT/5 speed with 50,000km?
I was thinking similar thoughts
I find it a little high as well, but really it's not completely out of line. They are becoming a dying breed and becoming a collectors item. Truck is an 84, which is much rarer than an 81 BJ42 and has the power steering and 5 speed that people like. Throw a new tub and paint job on there and look for $21000 like the other 42 currently on the market in whistler.
Some decent deals south of the border...

So anyone know what the story is with this? I saw it for sale when I was buying my pickup but it was advertised for $6000+ so I didn't bother and that was over 4 months ago. Now it's still there, what's wrong with it?

Man those look nice! Would make a great body donor....where is my brother lol
The first one looks the best. Showed it to my son - and had to point out for the cost of his trip to France he could have bought it.

It's not $21k, that's why. I personally think the market for unrestored 40's is tanking with the readily available JDM 70's and '81's.
There are just fewer folks out there that have an interest in old school trucks, so I think the ones that buy a truck like this are looking for them in really good condition.
Oh, I'm sorry , you asked a practical question...
Maybe the frame is toast, what do I know; did you want me to go look at it for ya? (You know I need the distraction.....
)
I saw one in Yarrow last fall. It was red but the paint looked very faded and had rust. If I get out that way this weekend, I may check it out. The paint on that one looks pretty good and it is missing the usual rust on the tub or the aluminum plate to cover it up.
i agree, its pretty rough, for 9 grand? May be 3 if I was gonna start an offer

Grrr, and I really don't have the room for another truck, so I'll pass....but am still curious why it's held out this long or if it has just been missed. Figured one of you guys out that way would have already checked it out.
