Haha, just talked to him, Rob M. forwarded it to me. He has no body for it, lots of parts though. It's likely a good price as long as the parts are in good condition.

I'm getting concerned that my wants will soon turn into needs.

Any opinions on this one?

A nice stock example. It's crazy what people pull out of their garages on the island every once in a while! The nice thing about this one is that it is a complete, stock unit. That's a rarity these days and very nice to have. It's had some rust repair, but so will every other land cruiser this age.

Only concern would be that a 78 will have the 'B' diesel engine, not the more common 3B. Not that 3B's are 'common' when compared to most everything else!

Looks to be a very nice driver. Is it worthh $12k, well sure, cause that keeps the value of my truck going up!

That truck will be a good remedy for a mid-life crisis. Able to enjoy driving it while you fix it up is a bonus.

I do love how people keep throwing it out there that "these restored are 60,000-70,000USD" or similar....where? On a rare, very rare occasion you might get that at a Barrett Jackson auction, but everything has to be mint. Likely even nicer than it was the day the factory finished it. And in today's market, especially in the US it's a hard sell, never mind the amount it will cost to get to that condition.

Beauty truck

Must be one of the first BJ40's in Canada as all the ones I have seen in Canada were the square bezel, unless its from another country or someone swapped it?

 

[crawlin cruiser]

Square Bezel started in 79. I know Steve has parted a few 78s and they were round.

I need to buy another truck, it's been too long

Did you ever get a response on those LV's on the island?

 

[crawlin cruiser]

That's a pretty decent deal. No response on the lvs yet

Looks like that 42 still has the jump seats. If anyone on her buys it and wants to sell them let me know. I could use a set for my 42!

Edit: Oooh just noticed it also has a winch! Me want! hah

 

[AJAEbj42]

Steve should have a few jump seats around (EBI)
