Your Chance to Grab a Bargain!
✅ Rugged Classic: A true vintage 4x4 icon — built tough and designed for the adventurous.
✅ Perfect Project: Minor front axle repair needed. With a little work and a few hundred dollars in parts, you can bring this Land Cruiser back to life — and drive away in style!
✅ Massive Value: Fully restored BJ40S easily fetch $35,000–$70,000. Here’s your chance to own one for a fraction of the price.
✅ Custom Touch: Finish it your way, enjoy the satisfaction of rebuilding a legend, and drive a classic that turns heads everywhere you go.
Accident Details:
• Needs front axle shaft assembly, knuckle rebuild kit, wheel bearings, inner axle seal, grease, and diff oil.
• Estimated parts cost: Only around $600–$800 AUD.
🔧 Why I’m Selling As-Is:
I have already invested a lot into this BJ40 to keep it in top condition. Unfortunately, I hadn’t updated the insured value recently, so after a minor accident, I’m not willing to put in more time or money. Instead of repairing it myself, I’m offering it as a project at a bargain price — perfect for someone looking to own and rebuild a true classic Land Cruiser.
