Description

Up for sale is my baby. 1980 Toyota HJ45 Diesel Pickup that is ready for you to fly into town and drive it home. This truck is Ready for a car show or Armageddon. For me she has been living the easy life. Driving around town for lunch a few trips camping and the occasional car show.
Mechanically Here's a short list of things that have been done.
New Old man EMU suspension Front and Rear
New ARB Compressor With Front and Rear Differential lockers
The Rear Axle is floating HD axle which is Very rare to find on these truck. This axle was completely disassembled with attention to detail. New bearings seals and shafts where installed and Painted
The Front Axle had the same work done as the rear completely disassembled and all worn parts replaced including 4 wheel drive hubs and Painted.
The Power Brakes are all new including the master cylinder. It has Disk in the Front and drum in the rear.
The 16 inch Rims are one off custom built to give the rim the16 inch split rim with a Original look but with much modern day performance and safety.
The Rims are Fitted with New BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2
The Headlights are upgraded to halogen lamps with a vintage lamp assembly to give the truck a more authentic look but high light performance.
The Stereo system is a New Custom Vintage hidden system that fits the vintage look of the interior with modern features to connect your Phone or Ipod music to.
The switch panel is configured to control the ARB Compressor and Front and Rear Locker, Hidden Led Dome lights, fog lights and Winch in/out
The heater System is a Vintage Air heater with billet controls. The controller runs defrost and floor heat very well.
The body is in great condition. I had it painted a year ago and at that time all the Door seals, window rubber gaskets and window felt was replaced. All emblems where replaced with NOS one that I found available. The doors close with no problems. The main problem for me with it is the fit and finish is maybe a little to good for a off road truck like this and makes me nervous to take her into the woods.
If you look close at this truck you'll find little details like the side mirrors I made those custom to fit the modern doors with the vintage looking round style.
The Interior seats and door panels are in great condition no tears or excessive wear. Very clean.
The engine runs exactly as it should. I never have had a starting problem and drove this truck over 300 miles in one day many of times. It gets regular oil changes and is pampered.
This truck will be a great truck for its next owner. If you want something that not going to be a bunch of surprises this is the truck for you. The mechanical is in order. As all 40 year old trucks there will be items that could be addressed but this one is a really strong driver that will show and impress.
Thanks for looking.

As you Know if your looking at this truck they price all over the board. I've seen some getting north of 150,000 down to 15,000. I've price this truck where I believe is a fair market value. If you do the math on the truck and parts put into this truck you will see I have way more than the asking price of this Land Cruiser.
