yup, neither one has been maintained, and the brakes are down to the rivets!
 
Rust free barn find... Only surface rust, a missing rear sill, non-running motor, a handful of rust holes, butchered steering... :D



Oh and I forgot to mention smashed up, newer, non-split hood.

$5000 HDJ81. Could be a decent deal for someone....

Combined with the 15k Redline/Aqualu body, it could be a very neat truck.


Can you tell I'm not a great fan of RHD... Or at least I'd rather have a LHD, four door, 40x2.

Must agree....:D
 
I put a deposit on this a few days ago. Just waiting on shipping. Came on here to see if anyone is familiar with this particular truck??

Nope, do not know it...

I would want to hear it run, if it sat on the roof for any length of time running..?

Otherwise good find, tried getting ahold of this guy for two days.....

I suspect John at RADD Cruisers would be your best bet... If anyone, he'd know.




Hope it works out well for you, what are your plans for it? Build thread __________

He says it ran less then a minute upside down but without being there to check it out myself its a bit of a gamble

Good call, I will try John.

Its going to be an organ donor for an HDJ81 that I bought over a year ago that turned out to have a bad engine. The axles might end up under my BJ74
 
Out of province truck, no luck for historyl

WOW... I have been talking with Preston for the last few days and was going to go look at this truck for him when the deal went south... Luckily he got his deposit back...

The guy told him today that he had the truck running after his previous text was he could not get the engine to turn over......thinking may be it was a decent deal, I called and the guy tells me he cannot turn the motor over with glow plugs out:slap: not so honest a person...

Owner claims he has out of province people wanting to send a 1000 dollar deposit, be ware...:flush:

Sounds like a deal to stay away from. What a shame, had potential. Maybe he did have it running for a bit after the accident and then it siezed from the original oil starvation damage.
