Wanted Wanted: Low KM 78/79 series LHD 4 door / troopy for import to Canada (1 Viewer)

Year

2005

Vehicle Model

1. 70 Series

Location

United States

I recently did an overland trip around Namibia in a rented LC79, kitted for camping. Mostly unintentionally, put that thing through situations I was certain would break ANYTHING.. and it didn't even hint at a problem. Fell in love with the platform right there.
After being a fairly long time reader, it's obvious this is one of the best places to look for a platform to build my own.
Hoping to find a unicorn, to build an overland vehicle. Me, and everyone else I imagine.. but a guys got to try.
Ideally a 4 door pickup (extended if possible), but a Troopy works.
LHD is a must.
2005 or older (Canada import laws are 15+ yrs.)
Relatively Low KM's and overall excellent condition
All mechanical & Diesel specs obv.
If anyone has worked with reputable importers / people that take on this sort of thing, please let me know.
Thank you!

I would just about give my left nut for a 78 troopy Land Cruiser. Alas, We here in the United States aren't is free as they would have us believe.

This was my old account, I have updated it to this one as it is an email I share with my brother. We are currently travelling in our 92 HDJ80 full time

We did around 4 months in Baha after the big drive from Ontario, Canada and are now criss crossing down Mexico towards Central america. Our insta details our trip expensively if you care to follow along.
