Toyota LandCruiser HJ45 Diesel Pickup RHD Australian

1979 Toyota Land Cruiser Description

This is a good clean HJ45.It is all original except for a later split transfer case which is nice and quite in operation. I recently drove this car 400 Miles and it did not miss a beat, it used 1/2 quart of oil and mileage was 25 MPG. The exact mileage is unknown. I will outline all of the faults that I have found below. I have made videos of a cold start and a walk around showing the faults with the body. I will email them to anyone who is interested. This pickup is located in Melbourne Australia and budget at least $3000 for shipping. I can help with recommending Shippers. I would like to talk to anyone who is serious over the phone to establish a relationship.
