As part of Toyota’s 40 Series lineup, this 1983 Land Cruiser BJ42 is powered by a 3.4-liter diesel inline-four engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. It was purchased by the selling dealer from Barrett-Jackson in 2019 and has been driven only a few miles since, remaining in the same showroom condition. Notable equipment includes manually locking front hubs, front disc brakes, a gray bimini top, a front bull bar, a roll bar, 15″ steel wheels, a rear-mounted spare tire carrier, a heater and defroster, and more. This meticulously maintained BF42 is now being offered for auction by its seller in South Carolina.
This example is refinished in blue and features a gray biminitop, black-finished bumpers, hood vents, a front bull bar, and a pintle hitch. It rides on silver-finished 15″ steel wheels wrapped in GT Radial Adventuro M/T tires, while a covered spare is affixed to a rear swing-away carrier. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX reportdating back to April 2019.
The partial soft-top open cabin features front bucket seats and side-face rear benches upholstered in gray vinyl, complemented by a body-color dashboard and black carpets. Equipment includes a three-spoke steering wheel, shoulder belts, a roll bar,a heater and defroster, and auxiliary gauges for oil pressure, fuel level, amperage, and coolant temperature. All gauges and electronics are reported to be in proper working order with no warning lights illuminated.
Power comes from a naturally aspirated 3.4-liter 3B diesel inline-four engine, which delivers a factory-rated 90 HP and 160 lb.-ft of torque to the rear or all four wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The drivetrain is supported by manually locking front hubs, and braking is facilitated by front discs and rear drums. The seller notes the batteries were replaced in preparation for the sale.
This sale will include a spare tire and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “Great driver and piece of history. The vehicle has lived in the showroom and been driven occasionally and serviced.”
