photos would help tremendously. BTW this one can be imported to the US.

 

[CruiserManDan]

It can be imported into the US, but it can't be insured until 2010, when it's 25 years old. If I do sell it to someone in the states I want the new owner to realize they can't insure it till 2010.

Why cant it be insured? Assuming this is a Canada market 70 and not JDM this is a vehicle that can be legally imported.

I promise you I had insurance on mine.....USAA none the less. That's a very incorrect statement.

 

[tan-jeep]

Yes i had insurance on mine to good luck with the sale!

 

[CruiserManDan]

okay then, I guess I don't totally know what I'm talking about...
So then, an original Canadian BJ70 can be imported and insured in the USA? If so I have no problem with someone from the states wanting to buy the truck.
Sorry about any misunderstandings...

Must be imported through one of these registered importers to be legal:

REGISTERED IMPORTERS

Costs about $800-$1K including customs broker fees, hauling over the border, clearance paperwork, etc.

I think the guy was confused the current 100 series and 200 diesels are not elligble to be imported.

BJ70 insurance and such

My 85 BJ70 was imported legally through a registered broker last year, the truck came from Ontario and into the states through Champlain NY. The broker got me all the paperwork I needed to title and license the truck in PA. Actually I got insurance on it through State Farm, my total insurance people, as soon as I bought it- I needed it covered during tranisit from Ontario to Champlain and from Champlain to PA. Not a glitch anywhere in the process and never a question about insurance.

By the way this brown 70 is a nice looking truck. Gary S (Shmukster)

Post some more pic's please, any rust?.

 

[aamiggia]

Looks good. When was the body redone?

Can you email more pictures to miggs_76 at hotmail dot com

 

[mreekster]

unless it has a new drivetrain nothing lasts forever, at 400 km that is way too high. Maybe $7500 would be right.

 

[CruiserManDan]

The cruiser is all original, the body has not been redone.

What's the story on the black around the rear wheel wells? That would have me a little concerned... looks like rust cover up.

 

[CruiserManDan]

The black around the rear fenders is a spray on truck bedliner. It is not there to hide rust. It is there to keep rust from forming.
