82 Toyota Diesel Landcruiser Truck HJ-47

1980 Toyota Land Cruiser Additional Info:

82 Toyota Diesel Landcruiser Truck HJ-47

Originally a RHD HJ-47 from Australia. Previous owner imported, US titled, restored and converted this cruiser to LHD this ~10 years ago. There is a link below to the build/restoration thread and I have a book from the previous owner with ~$45k worth of initial purchase cost/receipts. Most everything was rebuilt/replaced during the restoration with many of the parts being factory OEM Toyota. When I bought this truck I drove it from Hartford, CT to Knoxville, TN, almost 20hr drive and I have put a total of around 18k miles on this truck in the last 2-1/2 years, including several trips from Knoxville, TN to Florence, AL (~4.5hrs). This truck runs/drives good and is very reliable. Now for the bad, minor oil leak and healthy dose of body rust. This truck was driven up north after the restoration and has light surface rust on the frame and rust/holes in the floorboards & rockers. If you want a perfect truck the floorboards/rockers will need to be replaced or it will need a tub from the cowl back. So either drive the way it is (what I’ve been doing the last few years) or restore to your liking to be worth a lot more $$. Price is $18k cash OR may consider partial trade plus $15k cash. The only trades I’m interested in are four wheel drive Toyota’s (4runner, Landcruiser, FJ-Cruiser, LX-470, GX-470, etc) or Crew Cab Cummins Diesel. I don’t need any help selling. No emails, please call or text with questions/interest after you have studied the ad and the build thread (eight six 5 seven 1 nine 8 three 1 eight). Please do not bid unless you have spoken to me directly and seen the truck in person. Don’t waste my time, especially with questions/info already included in the ad/build thread, thanks!
