1984 RRC 4-door project that I don't have time to finish, its got a LT77 5 speed and a LT230 and they both work but the LT77 could use a rebuild. Dual carbs with K&N filters on a 3.5 that runs decently but takes some time to start, the carbs could probably use a rebuild or tune. Its will move under its own power but I wouldn't do more than drive it onto a trailer for transport. Clean CO title, hasn't been registered since 1999, the rancher I got it from used it as a runabout on his ranch prior to me picking it up a few years ago.

Tan cloth interior in poor shape, needs a full restore or torn our and rhino lined with buckets (that was my plan).

Its a really cool truck, and I wish I had the means to finish it.

I'm asking $500, the junk yard will give me about $450 for it... but I would rather not see it come to that. PM me with any questions.

Damn,I need to find one like that closer to me. I thought 87 was the oldest 4door in the US?

C'mon Chuck, you've been to enough events to see some of these old gray market trucks.

Remember that '86 4 door at BRLRC fall event a few years ago? I think it was the manual as well.

Someone please step up and save this RR.

Correct! Years ago I called LRNA and they directed me to LR Canada, and they claim it started life in Scotland before jumping the pond.

Any way to make them large enough to be visible?

I would just like to be able to see what I am thinking about driving 3,500 miles, and spending $1,000 on fuel to haul... I get the feelign we don't have a serious seller on our hands here.

Try clicking on the thumbnails.

Added some more pics, and if there's any interest I will throw in a 99 D1 frame and axles I was going to use for the project. Sorry for the poor quality of the frame picture, best I can do for now.

I get the feeling I don't have a serious buyer, tire kickin' from across the country. You must be crazy to consider hauling a fairly common car selling for $500 that far.

I will send you an email with some more pics, crown14.
