Description

This is a 1978 Mitsubishi Jeep, grade J54, powered by a 2,650cc diesel engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and 4WD/AWD drivetrain. It is a right-hand-drive, 2-door open-body (soft top) model with seating for 4. Odometer shows 16,356 km, stated by the seller as actual mileage. The car currently has no valid shaken (Japanese road inspection), no maintenance record booklet, and no reported accident/repair history. Import route is listed as dealer car, with private use history and multiple past owners. Sold as-is (current condition handover). None of the listed comfort/convenience options (A/C, power steering, power windows, airbags, ABS, navigation, keyless entry, etc.) are marked as equipped, though a spare tire is included. The seller's comments note that given its age the low mileage makes it an excellent example, that it has been garage-kept, and that it comes with a manual winch, the original soft top, tires, and seats.

Seller describes it as excellent condition for its age given the low actual mileage, though it is sold as-is with no maintenance records and no valid shaken. No accident or repair history is reported.

Ships from Fukushima, Japan, to our Osaka warehouse and on to Pomona.
