| It does look pretty impressive, but if you are serious about buying it, I'd suggest getting an independent appraisal, by someone who really knows their stuff. I'm sure you've thought of that, of course.

It was over-priced then, and in the current market, WAY over-priced. If you have that kind of money to consider, I'd rather get TiredIronGB or Kaderabek's FZJ80s, much more complete rigs for a lot less than this. |

| I have less than that in my 62. Lesson is that it what you have in it has absolutely no relation to what its worth. I would have a hard time paying $10k for that truck.

| And after all this time still has a posuer, non-functional snorkle install.
But it looks like the price is getting down to a reasonable range for what is there.
To be honest I tired of reading all that going on about it. I thought I was long winded!
