Craigslist-LandCruiser for Sale 97' 40th

Looks like a nice ride. Local in Phoenix.

Not sure if there are lockers, nor would this guy really know by the sounds of his description.

Merf would have the best idea if $7500 is a good deal.

1997 Toyota Landcruiser 40th Anniversary Limited Edition

That's a collector's edition, not a 40th. If you're looking, it's prolly worth checking out.

Agreed - looks like a collectors edition. Only if the vehicle was in great shape mechanically (with service records, etc) and good body, interior would it be worth it. The true 40ths seem to hold a higher value. I am not sure what, if any, the collectors edition adds to a 97's desirability.

I just sold my 40th to a guy that came all the way from Texas 'cause thats exactly what he wanted. I never even put an ad in. he saw the picture in the forum somewhere and approached me.

I like them too - I'll miss the ol gal (sniff)

Must be nice to have your own personal servants

.
I'm not at all worried, you'll wear through that paint in no time

, then you'll have to keep all your scratches.

so I take it, you deem the asking price for this truck too high ? unreasonably high ?

Ok, now I get your angle...hand pick and buy em low when they come in for service...then sell them at retail as prized commodity!

I was planning on sending you a PM for the 40th. I guess it is too late now.

kayaked56 · 01-04-10, 07:50 PM

Of all people I should know that was not a 40th...but you get the point.

Merf....you ruined my evening....WTF...you sold the beauty!!!

You should have called me, I would have added a 2nd to my already built 40th.

I would have somehow convinced my wife to drive the new 40th.

Sad day in Cruiser land
